OP have you tried the place on Kinsale Road Roundabout?? Hanleys is the name

They have nothing on the web but might have something instore...

reptile man

found a 1000ltr preformed pond in hanleys wanted 230euro for it but it wasnt in great condition and fairl pricey gonna wait for the weather to get better and do it when its sunny.going buying an 180ltr aquarium for the house next week

Thats a fairly big size? Have you though about cleaning?

reptile man

decided to go for the cheeper option and bought a pond kit .700ltr pond liner and fountain . started digging the hole ,was fine at first ,then hit some nasty rock/compressed soil and alot of stones so had to buy a pick axe to break through .underestimated the amount of work involved .taking a rest today

hi reptile man any photos:D

Digging down is alway hard. Digging a trench is much easier, because once you down you just work away.

Have you bought a pump yet?

reptile man

still resting at the mo .that digging takes alot out of ya ,booked time off for next week so will do some more then .have a pump for the fountain so far ,if it turns out crap at the end think i will just re fill itand plant a tree:D.

I'm after a pre-formed pond, around 1,000L, preferably rectangular. They're hard enough to find.

I wonder 8 years on if that pond was ever dug out fully...

Thanks, but that's not rectangular and seems quite expensive. I actually found someone with 800L rectangular ones for under €200.

What shape is it then?
800L is not 1000L either

It's not really any shape, it's got loads of curves.
800L is close enough for me.
