Backyard Pond with Waterfall and Fish

This is a short video of the pond I built in my backyard. The pond has a five foot stream that ends with a waterfall. When this video was taken in July 2008 I had four fish. It wasn't long after this time that I discovered baby fish in the pond.

How do the dogs treat your pond? That's my worry if I build one that my dogs will go crazy on it especially if I add fish.

@AbuGrabIt My two doxies don't show much interest in the fish. What worried me was if the dogs fell in the pond. They both have fallen in and both of them easily swam out.

where did you get the flat rocks for the perimeter of the base of the pond? were they expensive?

[backyardpond]

The rocks are Pennsylvania field stone. I bought them at local landscaping supply store in southeastern PA. Yes, the rocks were expensive. I think I paid about me about $290 for a 4x4x4 skid.

we are going to build a pondless waterfall. We had a waterfall and pond with fish at our old house but the racoons ate all the fish so no more pond.

@backyardpond how much did the whole thing cost?

My pond has a top waterfall and a creek that goes to the bottom pond with a small waterfall & the bottom has fish. We might put fish in the top to! Nice pond!!

Cool video! (5 - STARS!)

Thanks for posting it!

I help run a free Pond share website.

It would be great to have some more pond people join in and share their pictures,videos, and stories.
