Default No LEAKS! :-)))

This was our 4th try with this old kiddypool in the ground. Yesterday I
removed all the rocks - AGAIN, and put a NEW kiddypool in the old 2 still in
the ground. Another new 12mil black liner and filled it -AGAIN. The water
lever hasn't moved. :-) Next warm day I replace the rock necklace, put
some plants and fish in it, turn the waterfall/filer pump on and VOILA!

That reminds me...my stream leaks...I need to get that cement work done when
things warm up.

================================
Doesn't cement keep cracking though? Where I live most people use the heavy
rubber liner material under the streams and waterfalls - any leaking water
returns to the pond.

I have a leak at a seam. And I can't see to stop it. I plan to overlap that
seam with more liner, and then continue the crete. We've done about 3/4 of
the stream and really like the look.
