I've seen a couple of images this week of ponds with viewing windows and this is really appealing to me! I'd like to redo my pond at some stage and am throwing ideas around atm. So, I wondered how you guys would go about this.
I have:
Current pond liner - 13' x 15' + underlay
10mm glass aquarium - 72" x 18" x 18". Base plate cracked, everything else pristine.
Not very much money at all!
I'm thinking raised pond to incorporate a window/s made from the front and back panes of the aquarium. No risk of anything whacking into it, sunny spot, but outside of course so subject to normal UK winter temps. Goldfish only.
How would you do it? What materials, how to install and seal the glass etc? Would you start again with a different liner material, or could the current be incorporated?
Ultimately, this is all hypothetical: it would absolutely brilliant to do it but if it isn't that practical, I have my previous plan on standby of connecting my 5 unused preformed ponds to the main pond with underground pipes. One way or another, I will have an awesome setup!
