Seres Pond

Location: Sumter, SC 

This Gunite and Rebar pond is built much like a swimming pool with a custom oval shape to appear more naturally appealing. Two bottom drains and two returns filter the 16,000 gallon pond very efficiently.   Water is added by well pump when necessary and the drain line is connected to the city sewer lines to provide mess-free drainage. The filtration system uses an Aquabead filter and a Hayward 2.5 hp pump.  Aeration and waterfalls are set on timers.  This pond also features DC powered lighting for night viewing. 

Depth varies from 1 to 6 feet, allowing easy access for wildlife which, unlike many koi owners, the Culbertson welcome.  Pictured below is a frequent visitor, a yellow eared slider.
