bbrookrd: I only have a small but strong aquarium pump at the moment to keep the water moving (look at the lower left of the photo). But, aside from that there is nothing in the pond but "feeder goldfish" to keep the skeeters down. Not even any plants just yet.

Haven't even thought about how strong a pump head I will need just yet. Just to the point now where I think I have it to the size and shape I want to end up with. I am guessing it will top about 5,000 gallons when fully realized.

Here is a tighter shot of the pond portion, so far.

Do we get to see your new fence once complete? I need to get some fencing replaced, too. Power Company murdered one of my 100 year old Specimen Oak Trees after a freak October (Friday the 13th) 2006 snow storm dumped over 2 feet of snow on the area in a few hours. Nearly EVERY tree in WNY was severely damaged as they all still had leaves on their branches. I'll post a picture of that for a visual. Normally, we don't get snow until closer to Thanksgiving. We went 8 days without power. Glad for the greenhouse to warm things up all sunny day. Only lost one greenhouse plant to cold.
