Its deep enough to keep the fish in the pond over winter just have to add a couple air diffusers, redirect the pumps to flow under 24' of water and add a couple electric floating heaters.

Don't you think its a bit cruel to add a bear holding fish right where your poor fishies can see????

That is so awesome!!! How long did it actually take you as your pictures make it seem like only a weekend job..... Well done!
