Default Extending Pond

I built my pond last year and have approx 15 fish - not huge. I built
it with a flexible liner but now feel it is not quite big enough.

I dug it fairly deep (3 foot) in middle with deep planting ledges, too
deep probably as many of my baskets are on bricks. It is around 12 ft
long and 6 ft wide. I still have a reasonable amount of liner left as
a bog garden and also have some liner left over from the project.

I was wondering if anyone had any views on extending or joining ponds.
I could just get rid of my bog garden and extend the pond in to there,
I could maybe joing on some more liner to make bigger or I have a
colleague at work who has just bought a house which has a fibreglass
pond which he doesn't want - any idea on how I could join this with my
existing pond.

The one thing I don't really want is to seperate ponds as I will end up
needing 2 pumps etc.

Let me know

My pond can be seen on
