Hazards Pond Can't Post
The thing I enjoy most about this website is being able to look at other peoples ponds so I thought it was about time I posted mine.
I built it in September/October of 2005. It's 13' long, 7' feet wide and 3'.6'' deep. Its positioned in a very sunny spot so the idea of all the planting is that it will have plenty of shade in years to come. I just love sitting on the bench and watching the fish.
Hope you like it.


I'm in the UK by the way

hey im from the Uk aswell- your pond looks nice and fits in nicely with all the planting.
Can you tell us more about the filtration- do you have a bottom drain?

No, theres no bottom drain.
The filter is an oasis 4500 specialist filter with 3 compartments, brushes, Flocor, and sponges.
Its fed from a titan 8000 pump through the uv then to the filter. I bought the filter second hand from ebay. unfortunately it had push fittings which they no longer make so I have it feeding into another filter box which feeds into 3 40mm flexi tubes back to the pond. I am planning to change the push fittings on the main filter over to solvent weld so I can run it direct to the pond but don't no if it will get done this year.
I also have another large 9000 lph pump which is just used for aeration in hot weather and a tiny 700 lph pump running the spitter.

I'm currently thinking about adding a pergola over the pond but can't decide.
