Welcome to the forum - we've been waiting for ya!

Congratulations on the purchase and your new pond. You're at an exciting stage - we love it.

Backing up a little bit - before you entertain thoughts of increasing the size of your pond, how well do you know your ponds current condition? Depth, age, water chemistry, species present and density, available forage, etc. I would recommend becoming intimate with these characteristics before jumping ahead to increasing it's size - although I certainly understand the urge to increase the size of your pond.

Many men go fishing all of their lives without knowing that it is not fish they are after. ~ Henry David Thoreau
