Morpheous Posted February 22, 2015 Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 Hi, I'm currently building a fish pond in my back yard and I've used a shub ( small bath) for main pond dug into ground, with a child's plastic shell sandpit for the above ground pond which flows thru a waterfall in to shub. Both have no leaks and I was wondering whether I should use a pond liner or maybe just polythene seeing as I dont have to worry about stones making holes in it. Or maybe a thin layer of concrete over both. I want it to look reasonably natural. I was planning on using big river stones around the edges too. Any ideas ???

fishandchips Posted February 22, 2015 Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 I am using 250 micron polythene for my pond. It is a lot bigger then your one, 300m2 (roughly) but the concept is the same. Your can get the polythene in 4 m wide sheets so you can do a small pond with out having to join the liner. If you need to join the liner, go to a farm supply store and buy the tape that is used for fixing bailage bale rips and tears. It has held my parents polythene pond together for the passed 10 years.

kiwibrick Posted February 23, 2015 Report Share Posted February 23, 2015 I'm sure that shub is a delightful colour too!, I have one sitting under the deck waiting to be turned into a small pond, it's a nice purple/maroon colour... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
