Pond Boss Forums POND CONSTRUCTION Soil questions Blue Clay

I think help, because having good clay to seal the pond is sometimes very hard to find on site, and it gets really expensive really quick if you want to truck enough in to do the job right.

In my case, I had a pond on the property, and needed to make it deeper if I wanted any sort of fish to live longer than a year. I dug deeper and bigger, but still have to put up with a water level that drops 5' in a year due to the porus soil. There's good clay 20 miles to the East of me, but I couldn't afford to truck enough of it to do the job correctly.
