| Hi
This spring I made some changes around the pond, I put in a walkway from the patio to the pond with some small flower gardens and new low voltage lights Added a old water pump and ran a hose from a 90 gph pump up thru the water pump, works well. Put a sitting area in the shade on the shallow end of the pond and put a 1250gph pump to run thru the stone bog I built this spring, the birds just love it.. I had to put a net over the pond now due to finding a Blue Heron in the pond last week, all my fish seem to be ok.. Hope you enjoy and happy ponding !!!! Sheri

| Sheri, its beautiful! I'm new to the site and to ponding. Loved the red old pump. I am just beginning to understand the concepts but I still did not get the idea of how to run a hose from a gph pump to the water pump. Can you take a few mins to explain please? Where did you set the gph pumps? Are they hidden? Loved the bridge too, my daughter wants a bridge and I was thinking abuot ways to incorporate it. Your pictures gave me a nice idea. |

| Wow, you've done a ton of work. Gorgeous. :) |

| It looks beautiful! I love all the lighting you put around it :) What zone are you in? The reason I ask is, I'm wondering what you do with your potted Hostas in the winter. |
