    Jamie’s You have made my mind up over the copping stones as they were the one that I have been looking at for my. Pond.The black mortar looks the hammer getting closer now to putting your baby’s back were. They belong.You must be busing with the progress that you have made.Be proud of your self and hope Mrs Whisper is loving the pond build as well.

    I have to say James, I don’t know whether to love you, or hate you 😄. Having been watching the videos each week “her indoors” wants me build a new bigger pond next year. Bye, bye bank balance 😂. Seriously though, your pond looks the dogs whatsits . Looking forward to see the koi in their new home.

    Alright James .. top work ,the flags are black limestone they have tendency to (pitting) so use a quality waterproof sealer . And will keep the majority of the lime contaminating your water . Keep up the graft bud 👍

    Hi James, If your worried about the koi jumping and damaging themselves on the rough edges, you could do what i have done, and get some of the foam that covers 15mm pipe work, Like the foam you used to have on your BMX handle bars lol, They fit snugly over the top and bottom of the coping stones and look quite neat, sure you can get them in black also and go around the whole inside edge with it,
    On a side note, The 3 tiles in front of the glass, would look better if you made them 3 equal sizes instead of 2 big and 1 small mate, especially seeing as its right at the front of the pond, Do 3 the same size if you can mate. I also used marine grade silicone to do the top joints with, lasts longer than concrete joints would. also comes in black. Altho my edges were straight and not rough, dunno how easy it would be to do it on rough edges tbh. just an idea tho. good job so far mate.

    I used the same coping stone as you from B&Q and it’s not designed to be cemented onto the wall. I did that and they all started coming loose after a few months. Apparently I should have glued them onto the wall with a strong tile adhesive. Hope you don’t have the same issues I had.

    Aye it looks well is this your second pond ?
    I like your attention to detail why cut corners , sat there with a beer in the sun watching your koi kicking yourself that you rushed it
    Looks a good job
    Obviously all the grouts are toxin free you know what your doing
    I knew a guy who didn’t use food grade plastic piping it eventually leaked toxin into his water ended up with a lot of dead fish
    Channels like this are great cos some people are too lazy to read our source stuff on google
