Thanks to everyone for the depth advice. I'll aim for 5-6 feet and see how far I get. Do any of you run your ponds without electricity? I understand I'd have to keep the fish population very low, but I'm hoping to go no power or with a solar pump as opposed to running electrical to the pond. Looking forward to seeing everyone at the picnic!
