hi bob i have most of the equipment apart from the boiler,so hopefully i should get the shower units installed after work this week. hopefully my nephew who's a electrician will come one day this week to get power to the filter room,then i may get it filled and running for next weekend. then theres just the garden to tidy up and landscape .LOL.

hi all the pond is now full a total of 22.5mtrs dead so around 4950 gals little short but this is due to the benching of the pond base,plus the rounded corners etc,but this should give me a near 200% turn over through the showers. David the pond took me around 18 months working when i got the time to get to the stage its at now,most of the work was done by myself apart from the rendering and fiberglassing.sorry i have no pics of the early stage of the build on my pc as my hard drive went down around a month ago so i lost all my saved data . good luck with the new build. cheers Dave.
