Pond Boss Forums POND CONSTRUCTION Creating habitat Garden hose for fish structure

BrianL, I think that is a good price for 1/2" rolled tubing. And I have used 500+ feet of 1/2" so far. It's easy to work with. One of the easiest to make so far is I take a bag of Kwickcrete and then using a 1/2" knife blade, I will cut an X into the bag. I will repeat this around 20 times across the bags upside. I will cut 20-3' sections of pipe and force each one into the cement bag where I made the cut. Making sure each pipe is pushed to the bottom of the bag and then I add water using a garden hose to saturate the cement. I will let it harden and then place these on the bottom of the pond, usually in a group of 3 or more. My cost per piece is around 14 bucks or so using box store prices. And 58er, I understand the recommendation of 20% cover is the norm. But I think, it depends on what your goals are and why one is adding it in the first place. My 38 year old son has made the comment to me that I have to much in the 3.5 acre pond, but I continue to add to the spots and will until that spot is thick with cover.
