In the early 1980 's we decided to build a small pond. As we had a nice patio area, along side we thought we could build a pond to view from our patio doors. So the building began. It was built in concrete which then was ok. It was about 1500galls. All the family and friends enjoyed our pond, and one day we were asked to take some fish that had out grown our friends. Well they grew and grew and we thought we will have to make OUR pond bigger, so we started to dig again, and we thought we could perhaps bring them inside, so we built a conservatory and the fish come inside to feed and have become very tame, we can even hand feed them. This is now something that we can enjoy all year round . We now have approx 4800galls water. We fiberglased over the concrete this time, a messy job but well worth it. It brings us much pleasure!
