I love natural looking ponds. This video is about how i go about creating a natural looking backyard pond in my garden. To learn more about building and maintaining a successful backyard fish pond visit ozponds.com/
Well done Kev. Always enjoy your informative videos. Have not long completed a pond based on your cheap principles. At 25000 ltr it may have been a bit ambitious but in the end it has been really worthwhile. Once again thank you and I will keep watching
Yes, this is exactly the natural edge I'm looking for. Great tips. I've been vexing over what style of rock, slabs of flagstone layered? No. I love this.
I'm thinking about eventually building a larger pond here in Southwest Washington. We have a pretty decent rodent problem from both field mice and moles. Is underlayment enough to protect the pond liner? Or do I need to look for something tuffer under the pond liner?
Don't feel bad, I wasn't thinking with the 1 I just did then seen this video & YEP sure enough same here. But it's no big deal we are no where close to being done even though the 1st pond is 4 ft deep still can build a shelf around it I just have to figure out how.
I think I've created a problem with my pond walls. One of the walls is 3 feet deep straight down. I'm not sure what to do to keep the wall from collapsing. oops. It's a small pond 4ft by 7 feet but one side is a straight drop
You could build a wall inside the pond with blocks or landscape bricks. I quite like how it looks when they blend in the natural and man made elements.
@@Ozponds Ok, just curious. I'm designing a new pond for my backyard, 4x11x3 rectilinear, but due to space constraints if I add shelves I'm going to lose pond volume, so I'm opting out of shelves. Just wanted to make sure I'm not making a mistake by doing this.
