As someone who has had/has some outdoor ponds myself (3500g and 8500g) I must say yours is very impressive. Love how it turned out and the effort shows!

Ben, I know what the experts say with regards to UV lights. How cheap can you get buy and still have clear water? How small of uv to how many gallons?

Tuggerd, very sorry for the late reply, for some reason I am not getting any email notification to replies?

For my 8500G, I run 4 57W Aqua Ultraviolets. Slightly overkill, but crystal clear water.

you should put some of those spa fish (garra rufa i think) in there. the ones that eat the dead skin cells. get cleaned while you relax and drink a beer. great looking pond! thanks for sharing.
