Nice, I love the two pond setup with the falls inbetween.

I used some large round rocks at the bottom of mine, which has left voids big enough for the fish to hide in. I hardly ever see the damn things!

I did just place a large flat stone across the middle to give them more cover. Hopefully they'll get used to things soon. I think they just feel really exposed.

Looking really nice Spence. The board walk looks like a good place for the SNAKES to hide.
