Wondering where in your yard preformed ponds are best suited for? Here are some tips:

Electrical outlet - consider that your pond pump will need to be plugged into an electrical outlet. For most people, this means that the preformed pond must be placed close to the house. But you could hire an electrician to add connecting wires to a more remote location of your yard.
Slope - think about whether or not the pond is at the base of a slope. If it rains, water may carry debris (and even harmful fertilizers) down the slope and directly into the pond.
Surrounding foliage - are there trees around the pond? Trees have the benefit of shading the pond, but deciduous trees will shed their leaves during the fall, directly into your pond (a problem which can be fairly well solved by using pond netting in the autumn). Also, large trees could have roots that could extend force to the side of the pond.
You will also want to make sure that you set up the preformed ponds where they will most be enjoyed by you and your guests.

Preformed ponds are, in the simplest terms, obviously man-made. You can, however, disguise them with rocks and plants to make them appear natural. Usually you will find preformed ponds surrounded in beautiful stones for a perfect focal point in your yard. Here at Pond Depot, we sell both preformed ponds and pond liners. Choose the type that both suits you, your time, and your skills.
