Heybud,
Heck, a pond is a pond, is a pond...all of them are good no matter the size.
I was interested in your comment about adding water. I either have a leak or a lot evaporation. This weekend we had several families over for a birthday party and everyone was outside including the dog...a 70 pound black and tan hound. This dog is accoustomed to swimming freely in all the ponds so she decided to take a dip in the micro pond. It was funny at first and everyone laughed but now I'm wondering if her claws have punctured the liner because we have noticed a fall in the water level. Oh man, if I have to do that liner all over again with all those rocks in place...I may be looking for some clay instead.
Can you estimate the amount of evaporation? per week or per day?
I installed a 1500 gph pump and it really does move the water but a waterfall would seem to add to the evaporation rate and a 70 pound dog with claws crawling out of the pond just may also add to the problem. :rolleyes:
