Re: [koifishgirl] ponds [In reply to] Can't Post

alot of people around my area use clay. the clay is so dense that it really slows the seepage. Ive only seen this for cattle watering though and they do get low in the summer. We have quite alot of rain around here so it works for the ranchers. They usually put on a foot or two of the dense clay than get it wet and slime it around with a trowel than fill er up. It donsent sound like its gonna make a good koi pond though. usually clay is very acidic. but who knows im not one to knock an idea. good luck!!!

Re: [kolipo] ponds [In reply to] Can't Post

the reason people use clay in there liners, is if a big root punctures a hole in the clay, the clay will mend itself back to gether, and then the owner can remove the twig. most people should use liner and clay, clay on the bottom and then liner
