A Morning at Bobs Pond

By Alternativeeden @markngaz
The Koi club we are members of had a get together this morning at Bobs pond. Bob is local to us and has offered advice and tips during our build. His own pond is fairly new, after Bob extended his old pond enclosed it with a roof and side walls.

As you can see above Bobs pond has two sheds incorporated into  the design, the left hand side holds the filters and the right hand side is currently a store but may eventually hold a growing on tank.

A view across the pond with Zantedeschia in the background, a very useful plant as it will eat up huge amounts of fish waste.

By the end of the morning the sun was getting quite strong, the fish are shaded, but we baked, hopefully summer is now here!
