Bill, you might think about stopping now before you get to the water table. The water table is an aquifer that will both give and take. In other words, the impounded water will run backwards into the aquifer. I wouldn't go near it.

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.

Without a sense of urgency, Nothing ever gets done.

Boy, if I say "sic em", you'd better look for something to bite. Sam Shelley Rancher and Farmer Muleshoe Texas 1892-1985 RIP Grandpa
