want to expand, but how

[mattgorham]

I have a very small pond and would like to expand, however, my pond is built on a slope and if i want to add to it i will have to build up the land a few feet. Any Recommendations.

Regards

lol take a look at my build thread if you wish, we are on a serious slope and my pond,stream etc is built on that slope.

My laser level was my buddy during the build never left my side. Even with using it had to build up some of the bog area on the low slope side.

I can tell you what I learned as I built if you wish and how we did it, my thread shows some of the issues.

You could use the slope to your advantage by using this as your waterfall or creek to flow down to your pond, like Addy said take a look at her pics she is on a pretty good slope. I have mine at the bottom of a small hill and use the hill for the waterfalls.

Yep you worked with a good hill also. Makes nice streams and waterfalls.
