Outdoor Living: Advice on what to do with the pond

I bought this pond liner at a sale and dug a deep hole and placed it. We even did the electrical connection and the pond functioned for a while as a water fountain. We had to eventually drain the water and close the pond as lizards and such were falling into it. I am out of ideas as to how to revive this pond. Please give suggestions for doing something with this little pond.

Outdoor Living: I need a 'step down' from my pond to the lawn.

Hard to see in the photo- but for me to get 'down' from a raised pond bed- I risk injury as I have a problem leg. It's not all that high-maybe a foot or so to the lawn- stepping up is easy- and a bridge would be absurd- but I need something as this leg needs support-

What you see as the bottom of the photo is the place where I have to jump to get to the lawn

From there it's about a 6 inch drop and steep.

    I would suggest getting rid of the small wobbly stones and put a larger flat rock in that ...»
    would be sturdier and act as a stair step, maybe even an slanted rock. These small stones look unstable and dangerous. Larger rocks and fewer of them will improve the look of your feature, also. Will appear more natural and less human stacked. Adding some marginal plants will also add softness and beauty to the margin.

    First thing that I would do is look for a Certified Aquascape Contractor in your area. Go to ...»
    the Aquascape website and they will have a list of contractors by entering your zip code. I agree with Donna, a pondless waterfall would look beautiful and be much less work to maintain... It looks to me that it is concrete. Am i correct? If so, because of movement in soil and the ground, concrete isn't always the best answer, I think a liner would serve your purpose much better. I will be happy to answer any questions that you have.
