Looks lovely and a lovely size too! Have you thought of putting in water lillies, they really do finish a pond off!

Hi Linsuffolk, we have some water lillies, they grow leaves and occaissionally flower, I think the water isn't still enough for them because of the filter and pumps, but they do provide some cover for the fish.

A lot of people think that lillies dont like moving water, but we have A pump that sends out a large spray, 2 Filter boxes which are running most of the day in summer and a Komino Dragon water feature that sprays into the pond, so the water is continuosly moving and our pond is full of Lillies in the summer, we have pink yellow white and cream and they have been beautiful and in there for at least 4/5 years at least.

Hi Linsuffolk the waterlillies are begining to send leaves up, hopefully they'll flower this year- maybe they didn't last year because the summer was a bit of a none starter?
