So I saw this ad for Biglots and it had a Japanese bridge for landscaping for $80. Seems like a good price but wondered if there was any reason this is not a good idea. Anyone have bridges around their pond?

ive seen that bridge at the store (i love biglots) if you had a small (narrow) stream it would be o.k but it sits low to the ground and is more oramental that functional. i was onna get one when they were on sale for $40.00 and do a dry creek bed.

Well it seemed cute and I have always wanted one but they are usually way out of my price range. Wonder if they will go on sale again.

i have one like that and my fish love to hide under it, but i dont walk over it , i think you would have to reinforce ponds sides if you wanting too

I think it would be more aesthetic than functional. I was thinking of placing it between our 2 ponds and making it look like they are attached. Or just sticking it somewhere around the pond. Also saw they had solar tiki torches!! Trying to go for a whole Japanese/island theme cause it's cheaper than flying there and we don't get tsunamis

Be Careful jenn if you build it they will walk on it
Just place it on solid edges

If I was to put a bridge over my pond I think the heron would think I put it there for him to get a better view of the fish
