Slow down and take a deep breath. Lol this is going to be a journey and not going to happen overnight, as bad as you want it to. Look into buying Bob Lusks book on ponds. Mike Otto's book also. There is also many threds that tell you the steps to take. Read read read. Adding structure before the water is a lol easier than adding later. As soon as you can get a soil sample / water sample before doing anything or adding anything .
