djay Posted April 12, 2010 Report Share Posted April 12, 2010 Hi, I am making a fish pond outside Have got a wooden frame 115cm L x 95cm W x 40cm H so it is on top of the ground considering that i.m renting. I was wondering i'm trying to make it look good and work economically Healthy and cool for my fish and me. Lining any ideas what you guys have used. I am going to get solar oxygenator and fountain to save power. But still any ideas are very welcome. Thanks Any Help would be great Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted April 12, 2010 Report Share Posted April 12, 2010 Many line ponds using the stuff they sell at farmers' supply stores for the farm dams. You can also buy lining in precut sizes at places like The Warehouse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Posted April 12, 2010 Report Share Posted April 12, 2010 I am going to get solar oxygenator and fountain to save power. Solar fountains are pretty useless for anything other than a little trickle of water. Also if you have an outside power outlet you'll likely spend more money on the extra cost of the solar stuff for far lower effectiveness than mains supplied pumps. Most will be about 5 watts or less. Over 12 hours/day you'll save the massive sum of $4. How long is the payback period going to be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
