I had a pond built a year and a half ago. I can't get it to hold water. The builder said he did not hit sand. I was on sight when it was built and never seen him hit sand. I do have some wet spots on the levee but don't see any running water. I have been trying to fill the pond with a 2 inch well. It will fill and then it starts loosing about a inch of water per day. The pond has been pumped out and bottom reworked. I can't see any visual leaks. I have put 2 pallets of bintonite in it with no change. It was limed when it was built. I did have some places in the levee that sank after it was first built, but that has been repaired. The pond was built with clay. Can someone please give me a idea where to go from here?
