Hi all,

I'm finally going to build a small waterfall at the one end of my sunken 300 gallon stocktank. I have a few questions. I want to use a big flat rock to hang over the pond a bit, and the water will hopefully drip off that from various points.

If I want it a few inches higher than the stocktank, do I build up the soil as tall as the stocktank lip, and then use smaller rocks to raise it those few more inches? When do I put down a liner? How do I keep water from just dripping off the sides of the liner? If I have a few more flat rocks on top of the big one, do I just put little rocks inbetween the layers?

At what point do I bring the tubing from the pump up through it? Do I make the whole thing, then figure that out? What keeps the tube from slipping out and emptying the pond?

I've looked up lots of "how to build a waterfall" sites on the internet, but mine is going to be so little, it doesn't always translate well.

Do you think I can have a waterfall that is all flat rocks or does that somehow present a problem?

I just want a gentle little flow of water off flat rocks.

hahaha.......can you tell I'm into flat rocks? :)

Thanks for any tips you might have.
