I know this should prob go in the pond build thread in house day, but there may be people who aren't really interested in that but might like the video anyway
It's about 90% finished now, still got the waterfall and a few other small jobs to do but getting there, and the fish seem very happy in their new home!

To be honest I'm not 100% sure. My mum had three in there, I graduated from uni and needed somewhere to put my fish from my own place, hence the big pond build here. After I got my fish in there, my mum's neighbour decided to donate me her fish and all her filtration system ( ) I think there must be around 30 in there now, but we have enough filtration to cope with the high stocking levels.

Sorry, I meant to say Lightning. That's the name of the biggest one. But yes, we do have lighting in there. Two underwater lights which are clusters of 72LEDs that slowly phase through white, blue and light green.

Remember fishing the Koi lake at anglers paradise in devon a few years ago, impressive fish and enchanting to just watch
Any problems with herons or cormorants?
