jimmyj Posted December 25, 2016 Report Share Posted December 25, 2016 Must pick up from North Shore Auckland. Will fit in a standard trailer. I built this pond and living wall about 6 years ago and now have to get rid of it. It's made from polystyrene coated with reinforced cement render with a veneer of hypertufa. It's portable but needs two decently strong people to carry it. The pond holds about 290ltrs and is 1200 wide x 800 deep x 600 high including about 120mm ground clearance(it has built in feet) The living wall is built-in and is 1200 wide and stands 2m high(about 2600 if you count the plants) I based the wall off Patrick Blanc's living wall system, where water is pumped through a perforated pipe at the top of the wall wets two layers of felt which the plants grow in/on. The pump is controlled by a timer and runs for about 10min per day. The wall does and excellent job of filtering the water and increases the stocking capacity of the pond immensely. There is a built in mech/bio filter that runs off a small 12v 3w pump. I need the space to upgrade, as the eel that lives in the pond has out grown it. If nobody is interested in taking it soon, I'll strip the plants of and stash it away somewhere. I'll still give it away, but you'll have to replant it yourself. It is currently in a sunny position, but was originally planted for a shady spot, so the current plants would grow and look better if it was more shaded. Comes with a 220v 12w pump and a 12v 3w pump pm or post here if you're interested. I'll help to get it on a trailer on my end, and give any advice I can. livingart 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
