Waterproof and automating pond water top up

I won't be building a loop aquaponics system in the immediate future. So for now, I see 3 auto systems needed...
1. auto fill the reservoir from the mains
2. auto fill reservoir water into the fish pond
3. auto water the veges with the fish pond water

I have all the parts for number 2 so...
First task was to insulate the power outlet better. Then to create a waterproof housing for the extension cord. Lastly add a timer to the water pump in the reservoir. That will periodically feed dechlorinated water into the fish pond.

This is 2 pics pasted together to show the whole setup. I didn't have to use a single new part :)
