[quote][i]Originally posted by drunkenfool[/i] Started filling up the water to get the liner into place [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/5240/04072009161.jpg[/img] Holes cut out for the windows and the liner sealed to the glass with special sealant. [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/5240/05072009168.jpg[/img] Peekaboo! [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/5240/05072009170.jpg[/img] The fish went back in the pond again because the inner wall was 100% finished, then the old filter was hooked up temporarily just to keep the water parameters ok. THis is as high as we filled the pond (Just under 2 blocks high) until the outer wall had been built, but we also put reinforcing brackets on the corners of the inner wall for some extra support. [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/5240/05072009179.jpg[/img] ...then carried on builkding up the outer wall [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/5240/06072009184.jpg[/img] [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/5240/06072009183.jpg[/img] Then it was time to go back to Aberystywth to get the first lot of fish from my house there as I am leaving here next week for good. I also brought with me one of the two Eazypod filters and hooked it up after the pumped return from the Nexus 300, so there's now another 50l of fully mature media in the system. Maverick and George [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/5240/10072009186.jpg[/img] Rick, and Bob the Kohaku (which going by the size of it, I would put money on him actually being an egg laden female so maybe Barbara would be more appropriate :lol: ) [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/5240/10072009191.jpg[/img] In their new home... [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/5240/11072009196.jpg[/img] and one last photo for the meantime, my best mate Eddy in his full scuba gear, retrieving a brick from the bottom of the pond that fell it from the top from where it was holding the temporary net in place! There was a slight leak from the window too but that has since been fixed. [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/5240/P080709_12.34.jpg[/img] Its on hold again now for a while as we have graduation this week plus the house move, but hopefully there will be some more progress pics up when its getting towards finished :thumbs: [Edited on 17-07-2009 by drunkenfool] [/quote]
