Can't say i haven't thought about turning my swimming pool into a tank. Maybe after your thread I can have a go at it : )

Excellent resource for proper concrete pond construction. You can convert a pool, but its gonna take a lot of work.



Pretty much done now. They plaster everything on Monday and then its time for water and fishies

I hope that was not lime stone i seen in there. If so better get some advice on Koiphen. Looks like
your not cutting any corners, will make very nice home for those Japanese koi.

If you mean the waterfall rock, that is moss rock. It's a type of sandstone.
