John,

Very nice, but how come your lillies have flowers and mine don't? We have had no sun or warmth here :100: I need sunshine!!! LOL.

I notice you have fishing line strung across pretty close together. How do you skim the pond and how far apart do you make it?

Thanks and good luck with the new pond, it looks great!
