Fish Pond Liner | Pond Lining

Pond lining keep water from seeping into the soil. Even in heavy clay soils, fish pond liner is necessary. You can buy rigid fish pond liner in a variety of shapes. These are durable and may include built-in waterfalls. Many pond lining is quite small. If you want a larger pool or would like to design your own shape, consider using a polyvinyl chloride (PVC) liner, butyl rubber, or EPDM pond liner which is quite flexible. Use pond lining specifically designed for pools. While other plastics initially may be cheaper, many are not resistant to ultraviolet light and will break down quickly. Some plastics may also be toxic to fish. Fish pond liner also comes in different thickness. A thicker pond lining tends to be more resistant to punctures. While expensive and requiring more expertise to install, cement is also an option as a pool liner or fish pond liner.

If you use PVC, butyl rubber, or EPDM pond liner, you will need to get a large enough pond lining for your pool. To determine how large a piece of pond lining you will need, determine the maximum width, length, and depth of your pond. Multiply the maximum depth by 3. Then add this number to both the length and width. This will allow enough plastic to be securely held down around all pond edges. The edge of the pond lining can be rolled over and secured in a trench or it can be fixed to a vertical wall made in brick or concrete.
