Well it has been constructed 90% by me. My goal is to come in at $1.00 a gallon, pond and filtration is going to be 25K to 30K US gallons………….PM me for costs to date. I will post a short version of the build here as soon as I am finished along with the cost breakdown.

The whole build is located here……………
