Building fish pond using pond liner...What to I need to do/know?
I have been hearing scary DIY stories like people's pond flooding! How do I prevent that?
If you mean will your pond overflow, it could. But it won't overflow any more than the rest of your property will. If your yard is flooded, your pond's water level will be higher, but will never overflow its banks unless your neighborhood is flooded as well. Think about it. Lakes/rivers flood all the time and the pond gets covered in water too. But the pond by itself will not overflow. I suppose it would if you put a hose in it and turned it on, but one would hope you would watch it or set a timer or somesuch.
