Otto is a pond builder extraordinaire, when he talks, I listen.

Edit, I saw the images from your porch. If you do dig it deeper, where will the dirt go? Basically, when you dig something, the dug dirt isn't packed as tight, so there's a "fluff" factor that you have to deal with. IIRC one cubid yard of dirt in the ground equals 1 1/4 or 1 1/2 cubic yard of dirt after it's dug out.
