Hi all just joined this site hoping to get lots of useful advice and tips to keep my fishy friends happy and healthy,I've had my garden pond about 18 months it's 12ftlong 16ft wide and 5ft in its deepest part with a pre cast waterfall. It's filtered by a hozelock 14000 bio force which I haven't been impressed with. Looking forward to reading all your highs and not to many lows of fish keeping.

We've all been-there/done-that, so we know what it's like to be a newbie! My own pond is only going into it's 3rd season. I've learned a lot in that time, but I still feel like a newb myself.

This is definitely the best pond forum in the world. People are so friendly here that I've shared intimate details of my life with them. Despite that fact that many members are old hands, there is no cliquishness and every new member is welcomed as an old friend.

Welcome to the forum.
The people here are so great at sharing their ponds with the world. Soon you will be reading a great pond build and get the itch to rebuild your pond or build another. It never stops!
Regardless of where you are in the pond building and pond keeping life, there are people here that would love to help you
