Hi, great to find a pond forum, I have wanted a pond for years and beginning of Seltember I thought why not! So I hVe been digging, sieving for weeks and today, eek, was liner day! I have bought EPDM liner which was great to fold as so flexible. I used my cousins marquee carpet he had for his sons wedding, that was perfect to as really thin but a great underlay. Where we bought our stuff from told us that the underlay waists of money as so thin!
Anyway, after great fun today, carpet in, liner in, hazelock 6000 installed and working we hVe out pond? I will continue to edge it tomorrow and have a stream to build too!
So my question is, when can I have some fish? How long should it settle for? Not many p,ants about at the moment but I can get some oxygenating weed and some marginals.
Do I feed the fish from hand every day to? Or just whilst the pond takes time to come to life?
Thanks, rach
