HI Ben,
Welcome to the NWKS forum.
Glad to hear about your pond. As Dave says, you're more than welcome to visit NWKS ponds. Crewe is not too far away.
We have a "Pond visit" session planned for Sunday Aug 17th around the NWKS member's ponds in Prestatyn area. Let us know if you can make it.
Looking forward to seeing your photos when ready.
All the best
Martin

Looks Great. Well done.
I like Photo 2.
The Blue and Orange/Red colouration suggests Shusui variety. Lol.
Keep the photos coming.
