Ponds
Everything for Fish who enjoy life in the great outdoors
Ponds have been around for thousands of years in almost every
civilization around the globe. The ancient Pharaohs of Egypt had
fabulous ornate pools in their palaces as a link to the River God of the
Nile. In India the great Moguls had formal ponds and lakes on a
grand scale to reflect their power and wealth, and of course the
oriental rulers are attributed with the development of ornamental fish
as an Art Form. Indeed throughout history there are records of
ponds and water features throughout the civilised world.
Today in the UK we have more ponds than every before, with possibly
10% of the population having some form of water feature in their garden.
For many, what starts as a simple 'Water Feature' develops into a pond
or pool, often home to many of the varieties of ornamental fish.
What has changed in recent years is the range and quality of equipment
available to the pond enthusiast.
Modern materials and design has not only revolutionised pond
building, but has brought this fascinating hobby within the capabilities
of most DIY gardeners and landscapers. At Grosvenor
Tropicals we have a wide range of equipment always in stock. This is
backed by a comprehensive after sales service and supported by
experienced staff who are pond builders themselves.
