Hi All,
It has taken us a weeks work to get to this point. I'm so tickeled. Husb. rigged up a little boom on my Kubota today to set the 5 pieces of concrete in place that form the fountain. I painted it with leftover pool paint which is all I got advice on that would not flake when submerged. If it flakes off I was told the fish would eat it and get ulcers so couldn't use latex. The flowers and birds on the top piece are latex as pool paint doesn't come in varied colors. Hope it holds up but if not we will have to take it out of pond. There is a little stream running to another pond but thats not in the pic. Will try to share what we have done so far. Husb put water flow controls on all the water lines. Hopefully it will work if not he will make it work I'm sure.
