Hmmm...got a problem....My pond is leaking...Not much, about a glass per six hrs, but too much to leave... The linner must be holed, and could get worse at any minute. I wanted to box it with ply and tile initially, but ended up lining it due to time constraints, and the fact the wood supports are not straight. So I need to make the box smaller than the supports, slott it in and fill the gaps with something, not sure what... Polystrene sheets? Expanding foam, Cement? Ideas?
 
This is the frame type...

If you have an old carpet that will fit in there... use that... your leaks are going to happen untill you are able to either box it in (less stress on the liner) or you find an alternative to boxing it in (my carpet idea has worked for me in the past as the carpet took all of the strain where you have gaps in the framing)
 
Yeah I think the strain has caused it. I put a tarp in to take the strain, not worked... Putting carpet in means stripping it down, so I'll box it in at the same time... Now where to put these fish while its happening? I love fishkeeping!
 
On the brightside though my seedlings are coming up!
