Add Rock and Gravel

STEP 7

• You can expect to use several tons

of stone and gravel for your water

feature. Talk to your dealer for

help choosing the quantity and

sizes of stone and gravel.

Rocking in the Pond

• Start from the bottom and set the

largest character boulders first

against the vertical walls; then

stack the smaller boulders on top.

(See fig. 8)

• Be careful when placing any

large boulders so you don’t

damage the liner.

• The opening on the front of the

skimmer can be hidden by plac-

ing boulders on either side and

bridging a stone across, creating

a cave effect.

Note: Make sure the boulders do not

block the water flow into the skimmer.

Fig. 8 Starting at the bottom, set the largest character boulders first then fill in

with the smaller ones.
