few layers of it, and then some silt and sand over the top to provide a good breeding ground at the bottom, i've also loaded it with barley straw to keep bacteria away

i did all the pond myself, it hardly costs anything, i've made everything so its the same as a normal lake, i bought a pump circulation system and the barley straw, the string is for this bloody big ass bird that keeps trying tot ake my fish early in mornings. its massive so it may get tangled in the wires hopefully

Looks nice! are u trying to get the water clear? you get all the fish from a shop or snide them on a fishing trip??
My dad has tried loads of different things to prevent herons now he has one of these watching his pond http://www.koicarp.net/koi_accessories1/scarecrow.html
