first of all,welcome Frankie! secondly, WOW! absolutely beautiful pond! gorgeous job! you must be very proud! looks like a very well thought out project - sorry to hear you lost your fish - what do you keep? do you run it all winter? what kind of birds got them? herons? where in NY? lots of questions I know - I have a "pond" I built as well - nothing as beautiful as yours, but nonetheless, love raising fish in it - tell us more and welcome aboard!

Your pond is just gorgeous! I love how you built the rock formations. They remind me of the stone walls you see throughout New England. I'm sorry to hear that you lost so many fish and I hope things are more successful in the future.
