Just looks beautiful! I see you have lots of cement there, nice cement walls too! Love to look at other other foreign countries and their gardening styles. You fish and rocks are just lovely to look at and Welcome!!! I have a sister named "Bev" too!

hi

callingcolleen1
the stones arent of cement- was told cement wasnt good for the pond water etc. they are normal stones that were cut into blocks.
NO cement anywhere near the water!

Hi everyone never used a forum before so if I am doing this wrong by replying to some's thread sorry, I have a 3500 litre pond with a few gold fish 2, 3-4" butterfly koi and a 1 foot gold koi which is temporary. I have owned my pond for a year next month and never had any major issues, can anyone tell me is it possible to add two filters to a pond system, my original filter has a uv, it's just a real pain to clean with been round rocks and other things so I was planning on putting one in with out a uv, just simply to make life easier for me, plus wont it make the water cleaner with double filtration?? Also can you completely empty a filter box to clean it entirely, of course not washing the media out,! Are these thing doable? Thanks for reading!

welcome jamesc90, the best thing you can do is start your own thread about your problems and questions, makes it easier to keep track.

Bev, your cut stones are amazing! Around here we just have river rock and I never saw anybody with real cut stones around the pond, but have cost a ton to have that! Ha ha ... I never use cement either, but some people do, and your right, cement not good for pond. Your water is nice and clear and your whole yard is landscaped very nice.

James, you can hook to filters together in most cases, most filters are extendable. You should start your own thread and lots of people can assist you better.

 

[Jamesc90]

Thanks for your answers, how do you start your own thread ahaha, thanks again.

Just go to the forum you want to post in, construction, diy etc. and on the right hand side is start a new topic, click that, add a title and type away. Hit the post button and you have started your own thread.
