I am pretty sure I must have put a hole in my liner underneath my water fall. I tried to make sure that didn't happen by putting down a 1" thick rubber mat on top of it before putting on the massive boulders. However we ended up fighting them a little more then expected and must have did some damage to the liner because now I am losing water at about 6 gal/hr. I figure I am losing some due to splashing and a little to evaporation but it was pretty late in the day when I noticed the drop in level over the hour. I will look at it again in the morning and see if it continues at that kind of rate.
Don't think I am going to do anything about it because there is now way I am moving those boulders again and it looks great. I think I can live with the water lose.
I did have a question that fits in with this situation however. I was planning on installing a water line that automatically adds water when the level drops due to evaporation. Now it seems even more important but I don't know how good the new water (City, which is chlorinated) will be for my ecosystem if I am adding it at this rate or at any rate for that matter?
