nishialon asked:


I’m building a waterfall that empties into a pond (that’s where the pump and skimmer are.) Some people say that I need to cover the EPDM with rocks – but the sides of the pond are steep, even with the ledges that I dug into them.

Is it okay just to put rocks around the perimeter of the EPDM? Will the EPDM get damaged otherwise?

What other materials besides rocks can I use?
