Lovely mine's had ice for the first time this year, water's running nicely but the steel grid I have over the top to stop my cat falling in and the bloody herons has icicles hanging from it.

awesome looking pond Rod, mines been frozen too, but stupidly yesterday i thought i would try to lift a bit of the ice out, which in turn punctured the side of the pond, so when i looked out the window the fish were swimming in 6 inch of water, so i have had a very entertaining day in the cold, draining the pond and putting a new liner
