This is my 1st inground liner pond.
specs
size - 5'x14'x3'
1000 gallon
2000 gph anjon pump

I started it mid may. I hand dug it which wasn't alot of fun in our ozark dirt or should I say ROCK. So after it was dug it started raining and it was a couple of weeks before the liner was installed. But as you can see the liner is in now. Then I filled up the filter tank to test and discovered it was leaking along with a leak in the waterfall. Repaired the waterfall no big deal. The leaking tank give me a little more of a headache but the tank finally won. I went and got a new one and now all is fine water is runing with no leaks. I put a couple lillies in today. Plan on starting to stock with fish in a week.

Take it slow adding fish, the pond needs time to cycle. Ow you might have ammonia etc problems.
