its all going really well, have done 2 tests on water and so far spot on. went topick a good fish up weekend but the seller would not let me bring it home as she knows i only just finished my pond but did say give it till this weekend to pick the fish up. got 9 small fish in the pond and its all good. just run out of money at the moment to finish it but will get it done soon as i can. got to put copping stones on and render sides and finish filter bay lid and so on but as for the pond its great so far. mark
