The volume of a cone with a radius of 100 feet and height of 25 ft is:
261,799.3877991494 cu ft = 9,696.27362 cu yd

Just a rough estimate, not taking flat bottom and 3:1 slope into account. (sorry at work and don't have a lot of time)

For a 200x200 pond with 3-1 slope 25 feet deep. So is that like having a 125x125 ft pond with straight walls? If it is then you
get just under 15000 yds.

If it is 25 ft deep and 3 run for every rise and a perfect circle 100 ft in radius the sloping sides will be 75 ft of run and 25 ft of rise with a 25 ft diameter flat bottom.

25+
8.33 =
33.33 height
100 radius
349030.9438 cone volume


25/3 = 8.33 height
25 radius
5451.972251 cone volume

349030.9438 - 5451.972251
343578.9716 cuft
12725.1471 cuyd

found some more time... and I was bored.


Note: This is if the pond is round. If your pond is square, the above 125x125x25 is a good estimate of 14,468 cu yd.
