Having very good clay and then using a compactor; using the compactor is cheap leak insurance. It is much better to have a very tight, well sealed pond better than any other type of pond. As mentioned it is most important in building a dam. It would be possible with good clay that it is peeled and layered in sheets the water could work its way through or between the sheet layers. A sheepfoot compactor knits and interlocks the sheet layers together.
