That would work, too. My dh and ds have pieces of iron laying around that they can bend if I need it but it would be easier to use a straight piece.

Thanks for the tip on the logo. I'll do that tomorrow. NO, KoiShack does not sell anything or charge to "be somebody". It started out as a group of friends trying to stay together while the Board we were on started to implode. KS is now home to many of the US Judges and Koi Kichi. We have ...

Thanks for the info. That does help. I was thinking about trying to get some car glass but there is another glass supplier here that I can call.

If ya'll have any pictures of your ponds with windows, I'd love to see them.

How many Boards are you on? :P I found this one by accident searching for step by step instructions to build a microscreen. I can't find the pics I took when building mine. Anyway, I Googled microscreen and it led me here. The guy that built the screen has a window in his pond. The reddish/brown are...

If I'm converting mm to inches correctly, that would be 1/2" thick. I'm wondering if plexiglass would work or some type of car glass. SaniTred is a brand name for a rubberized liner that you paint on the cinder blocks. You can do it yourself. There's another spray on liner called Polyurea but i...

Thanks, Bob. It's very unusual here to find a fiberglassed pond. My pond will probably be 45 mil EPDM liner. If not, I'm going to try to use SaniTred since I can do it myself. What thickness of glass do I need? Should I use glass or plexiglass? If I have the hole formed in the wall of cinder blocks ...

Thanks for the welcome!

I'll wait for their advice. I've always wanted a window in my pond but didn't know how to build it.

Does anyone have step by step instructions on windows?

Hi, I'm new to this forum. I'm getting ready to start a new, proper koi pond. 12x20x8' deep. 2' above ground, 6' below. I'm in the US, no ice problems. The pond will be cinder block walls with rebar. I'm not sure yet if it will be 45 mil liner or Sanitred. I'd like to put 1 window in the pond but ha...
