I always have trouble cutting pipes to the correct length when 45
degree bends are involved. I learnt many years ago to cut them too long
and keep cutting half an inch off until they fit :-)

I don't understand why, a tape measure should work the same for them as
for 90 degree bends but it never does for me :-)

The pond could be a few thousand gallons better, after all there is an
acre of garden wasted on plants :-)

My second 2000 gallon pond is where my old veggie patch used to be. :-)))

Actually, the first pond is also in the older garden spot. Now I grow my
peppers and tomatoes alongside the driveway and buy everything else. It
was worth it!
