Description

Presenting the Lotus Instant Pike Preformed Pond, an ideal choice for both enthusiastic aquarists who are restricted by limited garden space, or novice aquarists who are on the hunt for a user-friendly first-time starter pond.

Boasting an informal, natural shape that's complimented by a textured rock finish, this pond has been designed to blend in perfectly with your existing outdoor environment, ensuring a seamless transition from land to water.

Moulded into the structure is an incorporated shelf that allows for marginal plants, such as yellow iris or flowering rush, that thrive in shallow water around the margins of the pond. This shelf helps to further contribute towards achieving a natural waterside look whilst simultaneously attracting wildlife and thus creating a natural ecosystem in your garden.

Installation is quick and fuss-free: all you have to do is dig a hole, position the pond inside and then backfill with either soft sand or sifted soil as you gradually add the water, making sure the pond remains 100% level at all times. The pond itself is very lightweight, meaning it's easy to pick up and move around should you wish to relocate it at any point in the future.

Constructed from thick, rigid HDPE polyethylene plastic that's UV resistant, this pond has been designed to last a lifetime if installed and maintained correctly. For your peace of mind, there is a 25-year manufacturer's guarantee.

The Pike model is the largest in Lotus's 'Instant' collection of preformed ponds, which also includes the ChubTenchPerchRoach & Bream.

Please Note:
Ponds are supplied unboxed and are stored outside at our show site. It is normal for slight visual imperfections on the product's surface to be present upon delivery, including dirt and superficial marks. Due to the way they are moulded, pond edges may be subject to creasing during transportation, especially in warm weather conditions. These will settle once installed and do not affect the pond's integrity.

John Duignan Asked:

Is there an 'escape' slope for any small wild life that might fall in?

We Replied:

Dear John Thank you for your question. There is no escape slope, however we have not heard of any animals drowning in such shallow pools, it is our opinion small animals would be able to get out via the sides of the pond, however care should always be taken when children are around any pond and we do sell pond netting: https://www.gardensite.co.uk/aquatics/pond-cover-netting/ Should you wish to contact us further or to place an order, please call us on 0121 355 7701. Thank you for using our online Q&A system. Kind regards Dan Everton
