Yea, install a stand pipe in it that will govern the ponds maximum
depth.....just like the overflow device in a bathtub or sink......Its
not really a big deal though, just ensure the edgeing of the pond is
open enough to allow water etc to flow through it, and that its
actually higher than the liner, and then your not gonna lose any fish
unless they jump out. Overflow is not really a big deal unless your
afraid of a washout etc.

I am planning to dig a small pond probably about 8 ft by 6 ft. It will have
a small waterfall and a skimmer. In heavy rain, is there a way to keep the
pond from overflowing?
