Very nice. I like the idea of the top border with flat bricks. Good job. Pretty good filter too!

How many gallons does the pond hold? And what fish are in it? Also how is the filter working? I would really like to do a DIY pond as I need a place to put my goldfish but I don't have enough money to get one custom built :P
