New Liner Over Old?

Goodmorning, hopefully I can explain this, we have two ponds side by
side. I want to enlarge one of them and join them. Since the old
liners are pretty dirty I thought I would replace one liner to the
pond I want to enlarge and join the other pond by laying that same
liner on top of the old one. Do you think this would work? Can this
cause a problem with a liner on top of a old liner later on? The
reason I would not prefer to pull it up is the second pond is actually
attached to a third small pond with a barrier between. The smaller
pond was built to be used as a holding pond for new fish. Thanks.

I have heard of people putting a liner on top of one that
has a hole or tear that they couldn't fix. I see no reason
why you couldn't place one on top of another.

Thanks for the advice. This weekend we should be able to complete the
larger pond. By putting a liner on top of another I don't have to
worry about leaks by taping them together. I'll let you know how it
goes.

It's not good. If you ever get water between the two (and you will)
the top liner will float and float for a very, very long time.
