Re: NFC: pond liners/Anyone want to chat tonight ...
I have heard it said before that EDPM roof liners and EDPM pond liners are
made in the same factory on the same line. Like everything else in the hobby
if it says "fish" or "aquarium" on the label that makes it cost more. While
I do not have a pond at the moment several people I know have used EDMP roof
liners with great results. Just avoid the ones that are treated with
anti-mildew stuff. I would also try and make your pond at least 5-6 feet
deep. I used to live up in the Fort Collins area and I know how cold it can
get. Of course the next day its 60 again but thats what life on the Front
Range is all about ;-)

PS I hope to see you all at the chat!
