Types of Backyard Ponds
Not all ponds are equal; some have expensive water features,
some others have exotic aquatic life and some have it all. What
features you want in your pond, is something that you need to
decide before-hand, based on your preferences, budget and yard
facilities. Some details about the types of backyard
ponds are given below.
Starter Ponds These are small ponds (generally
preformed) that may be in-ground or above ground. They may have
features like water fountains, but will lack aquatic life
because of their small size. Some starter ponds do accommodate
small aquatic plants.
Water Gardens/Ornamental Ponds Water Gardens
are typical ponds that can have a combination of ornamental
plants, fish (other than Koi) and other forms of wildlife. They
may also feature pond features like waterfalls or fountains with
proper lighting.
Fish ponds are ponds constructed specifically
for keeping fish. They can have different varieties of fish and
are generally large in size. Fish ponds also always feature
aquatic plants, gravels and stones. They can also have
waterfalls and fountains.
Koi ponds are ponds constructed specifically
for keeping Koi craps ((Japanese fancy carp)). They have to be
constructed keeping in mind the various needs of the Koi fish
and generally require a lot of maintenance. Wildlife Ponds
Wildlife ponds are ponds that have been constructed from keeping
aquatic wildlife like turtles, fishes, frogs, tadpoles,
Dragonflies etc.
Wildlife ponds need as much care as Koi ponds
as they have amphibious wildlife that can venture outside water.
We won't be discussing more about wildlife ponds in this
website. To get further information these types of ponds you can

Above the Ground and Below the Ground Ponds
Depending upon your preferences you can decide to go for above
the ground or below the ground ponds. Above the ground ponds as
the name suggests are ponds that remain above the surface of
ground. As no digging is required, these ponds can be brought
into working condition in very less time. These types of
backyard ponds are best considered when the requirement is of a
non-permanent pond.Below the
ground ponds are permanent ponds that are built by digging the
soil surface to required depths. They can be built using
performed liners, flexible liners or concrete.
Water features Perhaps the most inviting
portion of a landscape is a water feature. Nothing sets the
stage for a relaxing environment like the sound of running
water. It soothes, calms, and refreshes the soul. It often is
the center of a great landscape. The feature will draw not only
your attention, but the attention of every person who views it.
