Alright guys I've convinced my parents to start working on our pond again. We dug it a couple months ago and it has just been sitting there since. So they told me that I have the week to plan every thing and then this weekend we'll get the stuff. Anyway I have to plan the filter, waterfall, edging, and landscaping. I think the pond is around 2000 gallons. I was planning on maybe doing one of those filters in the blue barrels with the outflow going into a waterfall. I kind of drew up a brief landscape plan the other day but suggestions are welcome. I don't know what looks best as edging and waterfalls, or for under the gazebo; round rocks, flat rocks? What do you guys think is the best way to do the filter? I wasn't sure if this should go in the section or the DIY part Thanks for any help. Anyway here are some pic of the pond during construction, now, and my drawing. You can see how I had him build shelves in too. I tried just attaching the photos as thumbnails but it wouldn't let me :/
Here is the very beginning. The bare square on the right is where the gazebo will go.
And now you can see the shelves too.
Here is the pond now, they still haven't put the gazebo up yet either.

Now this is how dirty it currently is.
Here is my first landscape draft.
