• Use the Pond and Waterfall Foam Sealant to fill in gaps
between the stones that water is flowing over (Ex. 49). The
foam keeps the water flowing over the top of the waterfall
stones. Without the Pond and Waterfall Foam Sealant, you
will lose waterflow. The water will travel and get lost
beneath the rocks.
• Let dry for at least one hour before introducing water.
TIP: The BioFalls is designed with a plastic lip for
the water to cascade off. You can use the plastic
lip or hide the lip using a piece(s) of thin (no more
than 3/4" thick) natural slate (Ex. 50). This stone
can be attached to the BioFalls using Aquascape
Black Waterfall Foam.
If using a natural rock for your waterfall lip, make sure that it is fairly thin

BRING IN THE TOPSOIL
• Add topsoil to the berm and
surrounding area in order to
provide a good substrate for
future landscape planting
(Ex. 51).

(no more than 3/4").
STEP 15
BUILD THE RETAINING WALL
• Finish off the berm where the BioFalls is buried by building
a small retaining wall out of boulders. This step may or
may not be needed, depending on the size of the berm
and the transition into the existing landscape (Ex. 52).

STEP 16
PLUG IN AND TWEAK THE WATERFALLS
• As soon as the pond is filled and all of the black waterfall
foam is dry, you may plug the pump in and test the
waterfall.
WARNING: Any electrical should be plugged
into a GFCI rated receptacle.
• You can tweak the waterfall flow by placing smaller stones
and gravel on the waterfall cascades. This will change the
appearance and sound of the water. Have fun playing with
the flow of water coming over the falls until you achieve the
Ex. 50
desired effect.
STEP 17
TRIM THE LINER
• With everything running, go around the perimeter of the
pond with a pair of scissors and trim off any excess liner
(Ex. 53), always leaving several inches above the water
level as a precaution. The remaining liner edges can be
tucked and covered with gravel, sod or mulch (Ex. 54).
