After my pond was finish 2 weeks ago i tried testing it from filter to pond. i found a leakage on the filter somewhere and i can't pinpoint where it was or how many leakage are there? :( so decided to use some skim coating for it after 4 days its good as new :D but when i tried to fill my pond as i observe the pond is somehow leaking also :banghead::(
so i decided to use some sealants(for corners) and paints to repaint the whole pond (thicker then before;)) after a 2 days repairing was complete and another 2 days pass for the paint to dry and smell to be complete gone. and now the pond is 100% usable and 90% sure no leakage anywhere yet:unsure:.

LOOKS GOOD...except the blue is gonna be real hard to keep looking good. algeas, bacterial coating, etc.. are gonna ugly it up! thats why black is the most widely used color.

Very nice! My blue stock tank is a mix of blue, green, brown as the algae grows some dirt settles. You get a mottled look, which is not all that ugly, but it does show.
