Three of my 4 lilies have now flowered. The water in the pond and filter barrels is so clear I've decided I need more fish :lol: - too bad summer is almost over - the new additions will have to wait until next year.
The liner is covered with dead algea but the bottom drain can be seen in the third pic - almost 4 feet down !dude

How I wish my lilies looked so nice. Lovely shots. I really like the last one with the two fish and the lily bloom.

Looking great palsan :-) The Wakin certainly look happy and appears the girls are enjoying them!

Thank you all.

It was alot of hard work but I'm happy how everything has turned out.

The only problem now is dealing with the loss of fish - started with 6 wakins. A couple of days after moving them to the pond, one somehow got into the bottom drain - found it dead in the first barrel filter :frisbee:
Yesterday I lost sight of another one - it's either stuck in the plumbing or it got picked by some preditor :frisbee: :frisbee: :frisbee:

I hope the remaining 4 survive until next spring.

Can you lower the drain cover until the fish get bigger?

very healthy looking lillies, most of mine were on the small side this year, because I was to much in a hurry and to busy, and to leary to divide. Next spring I'll have to try, maybe I can find that post here from a while back that had some nice pictures.
