I've posted in another area, but wanted to ask about Visqueen here.

The black visqueen we see at building supply houses is usually 6 mil think and inexpensive. I know they use it to seal off house slabs, so I can only assume that it works good and for a long time underground.

I see websites with black plastic and polyethelyne, and some is up to 45 mil thick. How long will 6 mil regular visqueen last underground? Is there any need to use anything heavier than 6 mil?

Any other thoughts, info, or suggestions will be appreciated.

Bill, call the people that make the product. They should know about the specs.


It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.
