I know this forum is about building a pond... but we purchased a new house with a nice ~10'x4' pond. We have one infant and a toddler and would like to fill in the pond for a few years, then later restore it. So would like to keep the linen. I wonder what's the best way to go about that? We have lots of stones, we could use to fill it in, although that will spoil the landscaping around the pond... I was also thinking in using construction blocks - less heavy than stones (for the linen and also to empty later on) and with holes so that there's some breathing at the bottom? Then put a layer of smaller stones and dirt for some swallow-roots flowers... thoughts? Appreciate your advice.
