I am hoping I can post these pics. The pond is 96" longX 48" wide and 36" tall.
These pics are various pics of the build. I have not stocked it yet as I am still waiting on the heaters to arrive.
Stock will be a couple of pacu's,some oscars, and a jack depsey.
I put 225 pounds of playsand in so I could see the darker colored fish.
The liner is used. I had to fill in the pond in the yard because we may be selling the house in the near future.
The new pond is in my shop.
Oh yeah, the insulation is medium density spray foam. All four sides and the bottom got R-24.Spray foam was also put in the corners on the inside to keep the L-brackets I used from snagging the liner.

Yours look almost exactly like mine. I am thinking of changing mine and make it 24 inches deep i have a hard time seeing the fish and its a pain to clean. Also watch your osb it will bow I ended up putting a second layer on mine.

I figured the osb would bow so I went with the spray foam. It adds a lot of structural integrity.
 
Good idea w/the spray foam....
 
Look great so far. Cant wait to see it have all its swimmers. What are you planning on stocking it with?

edit: sorry about the stocking question i forgot i read it already lol.
 
Nice! I would do a diy filter for this beast also, either rubbermaids (in wooden boxes as to not detract from the class of this pond) or barrels (hidden somehow)
