Hello all. I have made a short video and attached it for reference. I have a 1/2 acre pond that was done a few years ago. My family loves it. Fishing, swimming, everything. It has a good balance of blue gill and LMB. That being said, we want to put in another one, but smaller, maybe 1/8-1/4 acre. It will be a nice view for my parents from their camper, and we want to stock it with FHM and perch only. We tried perch in the bigger one and I havent seen one in years. Im guessing the LMB gobbled them up. So here is the big question.
If you look at the video I attached, is there an issue with the area I want to put the second pond. It is about 150ft down from the sand filter of the septic. we wouldnt be swimming in the pond, we have the big one for that. It would mostly be for scenery, and some raising of perch/FHM. I really dont have any questions about the construction, the ground is good clay in my area and holds water well. The guy that did the first one will be doing this so I guess I can say he knows what hes doing, the first one came out excellent and hasnt leaked in 4 yrs so.. So the main question, would you have any issue putting it down there, 150ft from the sand filter area? Thanks for reading and any input.
