Waterfall/Water feature created out of river rock for front pond

We created this waterfall/feature by drilling a hole in the center of this enormous first stone and two others and then stacked them on top of each other. The first pump wasnt powerful enough to create the lift that is required to go up and bubble out the top with any force. So adjustments were made to fine tune the sound (rock placement, height of lift, water depth in the pond etc). The base was custom built to hold the structure, painted with spray paint in a faux stone finish, sealed and then the pond was filled again. Alot of work but definately worth the effort.... the sound is so soothing for front porch sittin in the evening....

yeah struggled with that, but the decision was made to let them show a bit and have better sound with the water falling and dripping. If the stone structure is too close to the water... you dont hear much.... I have since painted thema better color which blends in better. I LOVE THIS FOUNTAIN AND THE SOUND IT PUTS OFF!
