DIY FANCY GOLDFISH pond UK!

After finding some old fence posts at work I decided to build a raised pond to house more fancy goldfish. Follow along as I build, stock and plant the pond.

Look forward to this

[@fatheadedfish]

Glad you enjoyed it! Will post an update soon, been trying to video all the changes!

[@aaronsparkes4098]

For a basically free build pond, that looks amazing! How’s it holding up?? I’m guessing the rebar makes a hell of a difference

[@fatheadedfish]

I was lucky finding the material tbf! It’s holding up really well, made a few updates and gone ahead with the second pond that I will post a video about soon. This next one didn’t use rebar and yes rebar makes a massive difference!

[@paulwhitaker2816]

Great vid . Generally how much wood did it take eg lengths etc

[@fatheadedfish]

Don’t hold me to this as it was a while ago but I believe it was around: 24 x 100cm 6 x 70cm 6 x 150cm The fence posts were 4” x 4” (100mm x 100mm)

[@stevenpayton989]

Really nice pond if you don't mind me asking what are the dimensions thanks

[@fatheadedfish]

Glad you like the pond! Sorry it’s taken a. While I’ve just measured it and it is L220cm W110cm & Depth 80cm at one end and a little lower at the other :)
