    Very informative!
    Do you have a video of building a pond with a window using a liner?
    I’d like to understand the best way to sealing a window with the liner and what kind of frame you would recommend.
    Thank you!!

    i cant imagine that would be a problem the glass window would be strong enough. But i have no direct experience of it though.

    A really good and informative video. I wish I had saw this video before I built my pond. Then I could watch my fish from my kitchen window instead of just looking at the brick wall of my pond

      matt silver maybe you could retrofit a window.

    What glass thickness should I use for a 3k gallon pond, 12 ft by 12 ft. The glass window will be 20 inches by 4 ft.

    I know this is an old video but hoping for an answer! What program did you use to create a digital 3D reconstruction of the pond?
    Have been looking for a program that doesn't cost so much and I don't really need the 2D programs that typically come with them.

    • @leecalladine

      It's called SketchUp. There is now a web based free to use version that's is quite good. SketchUp is amazingly easy to use when you have mastered the basics. There are many tutorials on CZcams. Hope this helps.

      @@leecalladine it did thank you! Sketchup was one of the ones I thought was very expensive and came with too much, didn't know they had a free version! Thank you!

    do you think perspex would be ok as a window?, Im thinking about building a pond with a large curved window in it

    • @leecalladine
      @leecalladine  Před 7 lety

      english heart yes plastic can be used on pond windows. It is very common in the USA to use acrilic. But less common in the UK. plastic can get scratched you have to be a lot more careful than you would with glass. Curved windows are possible but will cost a lot more to do. I would urge you to consult a qualified local installer who will be able to offer more detailed advice.

      Don't know. I would be careful with that. Maybe others could advise.

    How many mm glass used for this pond

    • @leecalladine
      @leecalladine  Před 3 lety +1

      Typical thickness of glass on a Koi pond would be 20mm or thicker. Glass is almost always over specified, but you don't want it to fail!

    do the people that say you can put windows in ponds ever go to or even hear of aquariums both i homes or commercials ones. i mean just how stupid are people and that is not a challenge to see how dumb someone can be, just asking. there would be no difference in taking care of the pond window or taking care of the glass of an aquarium.
