hi the pond is
width- 3 foot
lenth- 6 foot
depth- 3 foot
not including the waterfall bit.
yes there are a few fish in there now, theres 3 ghost koi (which are mine) 2 gold fish, 2 koi, and a nice yellow koi. i think i am going to have to build a bigger pond though the way they are growing.

hi yes i am a builder but never built a pond before, there was a raised flower bed there before which was falling apart so i knocked it down and managed to use the bricks to build the pond. it took me a weekend to put the brickwork up. and then all i had to do was put the liner in and lay the slabs on top. i had a bit of trouble getting the waterfall right but i got it done in the end. i also had to buy a pressured filter and pump because i had to pump the water back up from the filter into the top.
its not really that hard to do (go on go for it)
let me know how you get on

Lol, i'm a 16 year old mate lol, we have loads of bricks spare which is a good thing and a few slabs also - good good lol

How much did the liner cost you? I thought it was loads - did you use butyl?

Well done btw dude!

Hope to build one real soon and will post picks for you

i got the liner cheap of a mate who owed me a faver and yes it was butyl. its best to go with butyl and not a cheap one. (think its best if you get some help though since your only 16)
