finally able to post a couple of pictures of pond, it changed from the original which i didn't like as i had waterfalls coming from both sides. i changed it to come down the center, looks much better but like most ponders i may change it again. also widened the pond as i didn't like the berms and had issues so instead of being more natural and kinda oval i more so framed it with landscaping timber

haha... no i was thinking of using it to see to bottom of pond to make sure i didn't have debris slowing my bottom drain, but have had some issues with algae of late and doing the changes got some dust and dirt that made it's way into the pond.. did get in it today though and the ladder kept me from slipping and sliding down the sides of pond from the carpet algae... and thanks for the compliment, guess i'm like most people and see someone else's or picture and say man i wish i had thought of or done that.. and i still keep saying that to myself and second guessing myself

Nice looking pond. I think of our ponds as a work in progress, never quite finished always tweaking something. That is what makes it fun.

We all do that, second guessing , changing and changing again. This one does not get changed it would be too much of a pita, it is what it is, a few rocks moved off and on ow it stays the same.

Nice pond and great waterfall.
