Hi Tony and all. I have just recently been round to qoute a friend on a driveway and patio installation, and noticed something deserves attention. When sizing up the job in hand, I noticed a pond containing Coi Carp. The customer told me about the raised decking to keep the Herons away. Quite suddenly I found that the decking was no longer in good working order, nearly falling in the pond, it was very very slippery. We talked about the fish for a few minutes and decided to drop in the conversation about one of his fish dying some time ago. I would have thought, the more I think about it, surely if you are going to install a pond with fish, a filter, pump and all the other necessities required to keep the waters ph level constant, that it would be a bit pointless having treated timber surrounding and overhanging it.
Do you think this is correct?
What do you think?
I would appreciate any comments on this subject.
