Is there a pond club in West Virginia, preferrably in the Potomac Highlands?
My pond is still leaking (worse than before) around the skimmer. And I know it is where the liner is attached to the skimmer. If there is a pond club maybe I can pay someone to reattach the liner properly. At this point, if I didn't have so darned much money invested in it, I would just fill the darned thing in. But then I probably wouldn't. I love to just sit and watch the fish and frogs although I haven't put in any fish yet. Or is there some other way to attack this problem. |

![]() Or is there some other way to attack this problem. The following worked very well for me, so you might give it a try. Drain your pond until the area that needs sealing is dry. Get RIBBON CAULKING (the flat kind that goes around doors when a new door is being installed) and use that to seal whatever/wherever the water leaks from. Plumbers Putty might do the same thing (ribbon caulking is all I had at the time I needed to seal a pipe in my filter) |

Pixi,
A friend of mine is in the Charles Town area. He is the current president of the Mid-Atlantic Koi Club. Go to http://www.makc.com/ then on left (MAKC Chapter Meetings), and select South Chapter, and Gene's phone and email are listed for the August 15 meeting. I don;t know how close you are to him, but he is very helpful, and if he is not in your neighborhood, he probably know of someone that is. -- RichToyBox http://www.geocities.com/richtoybox/pondintro.html "pixi" wrote in message ...
