I called dirt guy and he said it is normal for a new pond to do this and not be concerned. He told me to dump a bunch of dry wall peices in pond and it will quit leaking faster. I chose not to do that. Dumped 500lbs of benonite around leak area. Still seems to be seeping 4 days later. Water loss is very minimal. I just don't like having spent all that money and having muddy spot on back of dam. . It only has 6 foot of water in it. I wonder what will happen when it fills to twelve. Will the extra water pressure help it seal it up or make it leak more. Thanks.
