    Here we can see the filter to the left of the picture. Then we have to start with the actual layout of the koncrete pond. Bear in mind this is MooBan Sammakorn and I am dealing with only 50 sq wa. The dawg kan explain the measurements!

    It is a rule that one worker always has to look at the other workers!

    The front garden is almost done. About B40,000 to include the konkrete pond and landscaping. Of course this was done over a year ago and since then I have probably thrown in another B15,000 changing a few plants and fish plus adding a woman's touch here and there.

    Finally we are done with this project! The upkeep is really simple. Electricity is about B500 per month, a guy comes twice a month for B400 and cleans the pond. Fish food is damn cheep!
