Joining Two Ponds Together Advice

[paul24uk]

Hi all

Recently we decided to replace are old pond that was made using a liner with a plastic mold with the intention of putting are Goldies and Comets in, as there currently sharing an indoor pond with are Terrapin and getting to be quite large. We've already installed the pond but where struggling to come up with a solution on how to attach it to a smaller pond made with a liner that we put in for birds to use. Would something like aquarium sealant stick the liner to the plastic pond?. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Welcome!

The issue of joining liners does come up, so maybe someone who has done so successfully will chime in and tell you what worked for them. I haven't paid much attention, but it sounds like it is possible in some circumstances. Not sure about joining a liner to a pre-formed, though.

Are the ponds on the same level, or is one higher than the other? It's usually easier to do if you're working with the "waterfall" effect.

Picture please! Do they have to be stuck together? Can you pump from one into the other and then waterfall back to the original or anything like that? Just a thought
