isnt there a way i could like put an extra liner in there like vinyl kinda to double bag them
Yeah, you could probably just buy some pond liner to put inside the pool as a little bit of protection against punctures
 
cool i wont need the pool for a while but it does help to know what im getting into before plunging into it
 
Be careful accepting random advice from people who dp not have first hand experience with the topic at hand...

I've looked into several "kiddy pools" that i wouldn;t trust for Cichlids...

I've ran a 300 gal Rubbermaid Stock Tank for years with Cichlids in it with no issues... and I've very glad I paid the few extra dollars for the stock tank over the risks of a kiddie pool...
 
i have thought about the stock tank they are around like 200 dollars i will have to buy one but i dont think my snapping turtle will be nice to my fish excpt the pleco cause its to fast... i think ill put some eels in it or somthing with out the sharp fins
 
I would seriously consider if it would really be cheaper to buy the inflatable and possibly it bursts, or buy a halfway decent liner. you can count on a liner to hold up better than the pool.
 
you may be able to find a cheap pool liner at a pool supplies store. I know they used to sell some above ground pools for really cheap, so the liner itself shouldn't be a ton. if it can hold up with people walking around on it, i'm sure it would work for a pond. I've used much less in the past and it held up fine
