Hi
So I'm at the very beginnings of putting a pond together (as in, designing one now).
I'd like it to be a nice addition to my garden but I'm doing my best to be careful in the design stage to make sure that it's a great sight for me and a great place for the fish too.
Right now I'm thinking it's going to be something like 6ft x 4ft, and 5ft deep. I realise that koi are almost certainly out with those kinds of dimensions, which is fine, I'm not really desperate for koi - the garden itself isn't enormous and to give them sufficient space, I think it would take up too high a percentage of the garden.
What I'm really interested in is filtration/aeration. I'm looking at some little waterfalls and things like that but I'm not sure what the best way to go here is.
Would love for an experienced ponder to give me a few handy hints!
Thanks!
John
