one way to hide pvc

[addy1]

Decided to hide the pvc in my pond.

Took the black flexible irrigation hose, 3 inch, pulled it up over the 2 inch piping. Had to attach it with some hose clamps. It would not stay on until I did, also put a end cap on the piping.

It has holes for water flow, keeps the fry out of the plumbing instead of sucking them up into the pump.

Now the white pvc is not seen.

This is about 4 feet down. I know there is a rock there, it fell in lol and some pea gravel has drifted in............

Clever and does blend right in now...............no penalty flag for rock in your pond due to falling but if in longer than 10 days will have to send you a warning

Lmao, prob been there since last year. Need to get them out eventually, waiting for the water to be warm enough to swim in.

a different shot, it does hide it well It floats so I need to tie some weight to it.

I just used goodyear (or equivilant) black hose for mine.

It was multipurpose, the fry were getting sucked up. The small slots protect them. And it covers the white.

Well, that makes sense. Good call!!

Looks fine addy and plants are growing great and you really could go for a swim in there couldn't ya :lol:

We swam in it last year, this body likes the water a little warmer lol We will be fish nibbled

If it gets hot enough it will feel good a little cooler than air temps :lol:
Get one of those floating chairs w/ a drink holder and let the fish nibble and defoliate the skin off your toes...............................hey I've heard of places that charge for that procedure.......you could set up a business :lol:
