I have a concrete pond that was here when I bought the house almost 8 years ago. Its only about 5 ft. across and maybe 3 ft. deep. There were a few gold fish in it when we moved in and now I have 2 koi and 3 goldfish in it that have been there for about 5 years now. I've wanted to make it bigger somehow since we got here but haven't really had the time or money. So, I have decided its finally time. I have some questions, though. I have started digging already and I want to make a pretty large pond that is about the shape of the pond here:
But I want it to be about 3 ft. deep and maybe 10 or more ft. long. I need to know the best way to line it where I won't experience leaks. Is there a way to use 2 liners if I need to? Can just a portion of the pond have cement or some kind of cement? I want the pond to be big enough to where I could sit in it with my son if I got a wild hair (not that I would, just that I want it to be that big). I'm not sure how to go about doing that after I spend all that time digging. I just don't want them in that small pond anymore. It will probably be used just for plants once this one is finished. I will post pictures later.
