Just saw this and thought others might want to see it.

Very impressive in that its free standing, uses free solar lighting, and is two dimensional aquarium and terrarium giving an incredibly natural look. I bet the maintenance is easy since you can wade inside the tank while cleaning and patching. I can clearly see the benefits of an inside/outside viewing pond.

one things for sure...

if you live in the sunken garden and here a knock at the door... you don't exactly go checking the windows now, do ya?

Maybe off-topic, but Pete, how's the draining and repair going?

Haven't done anything. Been crazy busy. My daughter was over for a visit Sunday through Tuesday and today is Theresa's birthday.

Just finished emptying out the tank. Gf did a lot of the work to empty it and I think she found the divet that is causing the leak.

Hopefully you can get it fixed up and ready to go :thumbsup:

Pete, lucky you with a gf like that...I consider myself in the same league though it's my wife now. Wasn't a criteria during the 'mating-process' though..lol

Will be on a holiday to see the family in Europe, but will keep following your progress. Good luck and hope that divet is really the devil that crept into it.

Good luck, keep it going.

That's an instant disqual in my book. You dont have to LIKE them, but if you hate them, you hate a part of who I am. negative.

I agree completely. I don't expect someone to like what I like, but to hate something that I love is a huge indicator that it isn't going to last long term.
