Sid Beatty's Pond

Frank
Just finished this pond today, it is 7800 gal, he also did the rock work on the pergola . The pond over looks Laguna Niguel. Filters and pump are in pic #1, if you look closely you can see the wood deck painted white were the sump, settlement and bio filters are located, all below ground. The pond is running 1/2 hp Artesian pump to run the Rocks and presure filter, skimmer. 1/3 Artesian is running the 3 water spitters and 4 jets going back to the bio filters.

Are those water features synchronized to music sorta like the Bellagio?

I love the pond. I am really into Formal ponds. The rockwork looks superbe as well..

Man, thats some artistic shiznack. Got to incorparate the ideas of the client and it came out smooth! I remember Frank talking about this one, the owner must be balling to have Frank add bling like the squirting water. Yup, lights, water show and dancing koi! I too like that formal look...........

Awsome job!
