Here are a before and an after picture of a pond I built in an indoor/outdoor multi project job. I excavated down 14″ in limestone rock, poured a 4″ wide concrete wall, lined the cavity with EPDM, attached HardiBacker and tiled the perimeter with multi-color slate. Last I installed a switched receptable for the pump. The surrounding material is central Texas crushed granite rock and the water feature is the base of a storm damaged outdoor fireplace I recycled. When light outdoors is “right”, shadows of the moving water reflect on the bottom of the overhang and on the interior ceiling of the owner’s adjacent dining room. The plan changed several times during construction, but I’m fairly satisfied and she loves it. Zbalk

beautiful Zen pond...nice job. Very!
But Hardiback? How come not Wonderboard?
Just curious.
Or, how come not just a liner.....just curious what your thought process was.
I've built several ponds and will be building a few more on my property so I'm wondering what went on inside your mind when you decieded on Hardieback.
EPDM is a great choice and I was considering the same thing.
I think they line resevoirs (sp? oiy) with it.
Be well
