I built this thing over my pond last week

I used bamboo from my garden to erect this structure over my fish pond.

pond has been out exposed to the sun for too long and needs some shade, also nice to keep the leaves out.

here's one i took from my computer room window.

Gilly the Dog is intrigued cos i have just pumped the pond and chucked the fish back in.

don't think she could see them through the filthy water before.

ChiangMai noon · 31-03-2009, 03:10 PM

niece is here for a few days.

she enjoyed re filling the pond.

The Fresh Prince · 31-03-2009, 03:10 PM

Nice dog.

ChiangMai noon · 31-03-2009, 03:12 PM

made the little picket fency thing around the base with 10 inch cuts of bamboo, again from my garden, and split in half.

ChiangMai noon · 31-03-2009, 03:14 PM

we got orchids hanging from the roof of the structure.

think the green cover thing on top was about 200 baht.

I always enjoy such threads pertaining to members that live in the sticks. Keep it up Nooners.....the pond. Kinda small, isn't it?

The fish don't complain

I think it looks nice, well done nooners

not really, it's about 3 and a half feet deep in the middle

looks a lot smaller in pics than it is.

3.5 metres by 4.5

big enough i think.

Travelmate · 31-03-2009, 06:15 PM

What fish do you have in pond?
Do you recommend others to follow your example and have a pond in the garden?
How much does a pond such as yours cost to build and maintain?
How many fish can you keep in a pond of your size?
And about your erection, was it your own doing or did somebody lend a hand to assist in making such an erection possible?
I do like your dog, where did you get the dog? NR?

Butterfly · 31-03-2009, 06:20 PM

Koi or gold fish in the pond ?

ChiangMai noon · 31-03-2009, 06:23 PM

comets and also 12 little edible nim fish that we caught in a local fishing pond last week, they are about half a hand big at the moment..

apparently we are going to eat them in about a year's time.
