We built my first pond this May. Well, my son hand dug out a pond for me. We had a few adventures along the way, including finding an old covered dry well next to the placement of our pond (that was converted into a trashcan filter/skimmer that is still being tweaked), a waterfall that leaks water (being rebuilt again) and now adding an above-ground bog filter.
I have kept aquariums off and on all of my life, currently have 2 55 gal aquariums in the house plus a 29 gal in my office (in addition to the ones my grown sons have) so it seemed natural to build a 725 gal pond next.
