there are concret builds but those are in the thousands of gallon range, for this purpous its over kill.
greg i never said anything about acrylic leaking, i said it bows and scratches easily and over time it can begin to yellow depending on the quality. acrylic is **** near indistructable but the joints are another thing. i've heard stories where the joints have come appart dumping 800 gallons of water on someones floor.
pond liner also comes in various thicknesses ranging from 10 mil to 40 mil and is not just a thin layer of plastic. i have a pond in my back yard that is a few hundred gallons and has been through 7 winters and summers and has had people, rocks, stones, dogs fall in and had a racoon try to catch my fish and drown in it and has yet to leak. my dad even pressure washes it with a gas washer every year and its still good as the day we installed it
