Joe, I'm pretty sure Bretski posted pictures recently and it was similar but not quite what i had in mind. But your getting the idea! When I installed the areator pipe underground (ran from my barn), I put in a water line and 220 volt power in the same trench so I could build this in the future. All of this runs to a 4x4 post in the ground with an outside power box so i can split it down to 110 volts w/o having any voltage drop due to the distance. The water usage is obvious and the areator runs in the pond from there. I use a sweeney to feed with and it runs off of a lawn mower battery set up on a trickle charger ( i got tired of the aa batteries) and having power is a must at the pond. I want to run a ceiling fan, fridge, maybe lights during christmas, and so forth. Just a nice place to hang out and have friends/family over for fishing, social parties, eating freshly caught fish.
