making a pond garden

[ReefGuru]

I have been keeping aquariums for a decade. I have bread sea horses and propagated corals. However, I have never done a pond. I want to build a pond with a stream, waterfall and a marhsy area for plants. Can anybody recomend a book for me to read about building ponds that is not designed towards a total beginner?
thanx

I dont know exact names but Ortho (the fire ant killer people) makes some pretty good books. Tetra have a bunch of really nice books. If you want to dive into some really in depth stuff the Associate Koi Clubs of America have some really in depth books on pond construction, and a really in depth one on how to make top notch filters for koi ponds. Like they have a 1000gal filter for a 2000gal pond... They also have a web site www.AKCA.org

The Complete Pond Builder, by Helen Nash. The link below goes to my review of the book. Even though the book is a few years old now, I still think it's the most comprehensive pond building book around.
