my new 150 gallon pond

[midnight]

moved the pond today
went pretty easy.
left all the fish in it.
drained 2/3 of it.
picked it up and slid 2 metal pipes under it.
i put blocks inbetween the 2 pads so we could roll the pond over to the next pad on the pipes.
this idea worked great.
in the last pix i didnt have the tile back in yet.

oh and i also cut off the elbow going into the filter.
it flows strait into the filter now.
will be finishing up the filter,move the uv,and finish the trim soon.

now i can make the old pad bigger for the 480g

I love your idea!!! but you've put me in a predicament, should I dig a pond or make a pond??? Still leaning towards digging a pond since I won't be able to find wood for free, but I still like your idea alot. My only concern is the wood warping if water gets in it.

wow its been about 4 yrs ive had this.
so i decided to set it up at my new place.
the bottom plywood was rotting,i figured..
so i start to tear it off...a massive colony of bull or carpenter ants made it home!
i sprayed a gallon of killer on it.
it was nuts how many were in it.
so after that battle i put on new plywood and moved it in.
nothing special in it or will be,just some goldfish,mostly decoration.

Good to see you getting back into it?? How are your exotics in the ditches and lakes over there?? Have you been netting at all??
