Imagine Relaxing
|
Enjoy the swimming koi or goldfish while you sip your lemonade! Or, bring in some tadpoles and the frogs will sing to you. I LOVE my own pond.
One day I was sitting on the back deck overlooking my yard and realized some LIFE was missing from it. Yes, I had birds and squirrels and deer, but they were transient, never really staying in one spot for very long.
I realize your backyard setting may not be the same… in fact, it may just be a little spot. But, you, too, can enjoy the benefits of a small fish pond.
- First of all, it’s very relaxing and meditative
- A fish pond can add value to your home
- A fish pond brings the family together
- A fish pond attracts other aquatic life, such as frogs
- A fish pond entertains your guests
With a big enough pond, you can even put a little bridge across it.
A pond bridge allows you to stare down into the water and really observe nature at work.
Additional features of a pond are many.
Water fountains
Waterfalls
Floating candles
Floating flowers
Underground lights
You can contract someone to build your pond or "Do-It-Yourself". I created my 6′ x 8" pond by myself with shovel, liner, rocks and aquatic plants. A good strong filter system is a necessity.
Start with a kit, like the one below:
Or, if you want something larger, this one is for an 6 x 8” pond and comes with more accessories. A Serenity "Complete Pond Kit" comes with everything you need to create that backyard paradise you’ve been dreaming about and is actually available in two sizes, 6×8 and 8×10.
