Good luck.. Hopefully you find a taker for your offer. I recently completed a construction project and one of the things we needed to do was fill in a pond. Those things can take a lot of dirt! I never made my pond too large because my wife didn't really like it and felt our yard was small. Now she enjoys sitting by it when we have friends over so it worked out. I always stayed with goldfish so enlarging it was an option not a necessity.

What a beautiful pond, looks like you've put a lot of work into it.
Thank you Tula, I just added plants and 2 fish, The pond was here when I purchased the home. The previous owner spared no expenses.

Thank you ,The pond was here when we purchased the home, I would have tucked it into a corner but this pond is almost dead center of my yard....

Anytime and if you continue to have errors or denials of uploading photos let me know and I would be glad to give you a coupon to go to my website and use my remote assistance tech support to diagnose and if found correct the errors. I have aa idea of what it might be and could be something easily fixed with remote assistance in about 10 minutes. I would also advise not to use any "online" fix program cause those are mostly scams that fix nothing and just hijack your system or exploit your info. Thats why I wrote my own program originally was for my own machines and published it about 3 years ago.
Do you do flashdrive recover too? :cry: my life's in there and it's broken (2 stores and a no go already)

Removing that pond will be a lot of work.
So what exactly will your wife be doing in that space that the pond is getting in the way?
It looks to me like you already have some lawn space and even a trampoline set up to the right of the pond.
My guess is you'll just end up with more grass to mow.

[QUOTEDave 54, post: 285847, member: 5153"]Thats so sad why cant you down size your pond so you can continue to keep weve had 28 years of this hobby both my wife and I are disabled but e hope for another 20 years in the hobby :happy:

Dave
Would love to but my wife really wants to get rid of it. If the price is right downsizing may be a possibility Dave. Need to convince the wifey...[/QUOTE]
If you want to keep it tell 'wifey' it's gonna cost 20 grand to get rid of it, maybe it can stay.
You're not the only no ponder out there, co-worker moved into new home with large pond and waterfall but they don't want the dogs getting in there so she asked me if I knew anyone who could get rid of it.:wtf:
