Hey peeps,
I'm a newbie to this forum and hobby.
I've moved into a new house recently and I don't believe the previous owners looked after the ponds very well. There are two. One is very large and there is another smaller one which is raised above the larger one. I think the smaller pond water can overflow and begin feeding the larger one. There has to be some sort of pump to pump the water out of the larger and into the smaller pond in order for this feeding to happen.
Here are some pictures of the two ponds in their current state:

I really have no idea how I'm going to make things better, and worse still, I really don't have a lot of money to spend (new house). I will require to sort out most, if not everything, myself. I really need some help and information please. Although I don't have much money to spend, I think doing as much as I can myself will give me a great opportunity to learn.
Thanks guys.
