I'm putting in a shallow outdoor pond Thursday or Friday. Plan now is to build a top frame from treated 2x6 about 15x15 ft on the top. I'm going to nail the liner to the 2x6 frame and dig down another 4 to 6 inches for a total water depth of 10 to 12 inches.
Use will be for plants and a few goldfish. Depth is shallow, but I'll have shade in the summer (plants), and the winters are very mild here (Houston). There is really nothing to stop me from going deeper, but I won't bother with the extra gallons unless they are needed.
Any suggestions? Does this plan sound all right?
