The list could be endless. Here are a couple:
When buiding a pond first stockpile all the topsoil. Use it when the pond is complete to respead over the perimeter area to grow soil holding cover vegetation.
Don't use copper sulfate to kill any plants with roots.
Use plenty of stakes to hold down not only root balls but also logs and coarse brush. As the basin soaks & softens buoyant wood has lots of lifting power.
