When building a garden pond, all the EPDM to coverered with rocks – all the mode down?
I’m building a waterfall that empties into a pond (that’s where the pump and skimmer are.) A Little people state that I need to coating the EPDM with rocks – however the parties of the pond are steep, even with the ledges that I dug into them.
Is it okay simply to put rocks roughly the perimeter of the EPDM? Will the EPDM take damaged other?
What another materials besides rocks can I utilize?

It is not recommended for filling the pond with rocks making it difficult regular cleaning. I had my pond for almost 9 years now and the investment is still good.
If you want the look of rocks in the lake, making material lines are gray pebble pattern.
It is best to use liner on the lakes as the surface is ideal for the growth of microorganisms that keep the lake healthy. Make sure there will be based on direct sun, needs a good charge of shade to keep algae from taking over.

The EPDM is nicely uncovered provided mainly covered by water-i only areas would be covering the EPDM is if you have some level areas around the waterfall, but it sounds like a waterfall style is to drop so no need to worry .
All Its a mater of preference some people like to add rocks to appear more natural.
If you want to use rocks within the lake, you should use river rocks, with a smooth (gets expensive), because ordinary rocks have any sharp edges that soil under the settlement would cause pressure on the regular and you could puncture it.
As mentioned earlier i wouldnt use all rock-collecting seaweed, it is impossible to clean, which is green in one year, even with a good tip for filtro.Ena adding the rocks on the perimeter using only a few rocks in the first for regular services – then fill the pond to the desired depth, since the rocks around the perimeter, the water will settle the investment and press it in place on walls, where the rocks are all before the water added can then stretch the liner and cause premature leaks.
