You can also pull a large sheepsfoot roller behind a dozer, but it won't be a vibratory one. The different lifts need to be knitted together with a sheepsfoot and not a smooth barrel roller. You will end up with a pond bottom that looks like pages in a book with a smooth barrel roller. Water can work it's way through each page, move horizontally until it finds another crack/fissure, go down a page, rinse and repeat until it leaks out of the pond. In a pond that has the lifts knitted together that won't happen - the water cannot move horizontally.
