Hey guys, So my family and I have been thinking about this for a while, and we have decided that we want to put a pond in our yard. The only problem is, we live in Southern California, and Our backyard is seriously dried riverbed/bedrock. So my parents decided they wanted to do a completely above-ground pond.
It's going to be where we have had these ugly as sin bushes for as long as I've been alive, right next to our house. I'm worried that this will be a problem, so I'm looking for some ideas and feedback!
So there's the specs:
3 feet deep
3 feet wide
and somewhere between 10 and 16 feet long
It's going to be rectangular, so it's pretty much a giant above ground-mini pool haha
I've already seen some potential problems, so I want to hear from everybody! This isn't getting started tomorrow, so we have time to figure this out...
First off, I'm worried about height. That's really tall, and I don't know what we can build around it to support all that weight.
2. What kind of pumps and filtration will I need for this? I know it needs to have a drain, but how would this work out?
3. I already have the pond liner in mind. i would be using PP™ 45 Custom Size Liners By BTL.
What am I missing here? please help.
Thanks so much in advance guys!
