Still feels like tempting fate but i suppose i had to try putting water in one of these days, i can't just keep putting it off forever. So after a quick check this morning the area between the liner and glass was still dry on all 3 windows, went out for the morning, got back at lunch time and decided i may as well try a little more water and monitor it for the rest of the day before my night shift.
Wood and carpet still dry
Water depth now just over 15 inches Water depth in the paddling pool is and has been for a while just 16 inches. So if a miracle occurs and the floors not soaked in the morning then i'm going to switch the heaters on in the pond when i get in from work. Will then again keep an eye on it all day for leaks as the temperature rises. All still being well (I can dream) once the temperature is up to the same as the paddling pool, on either Friday or saturday i will look at moving the filters and fish over then use the water in the paddling pool to continue raising the pond level. If there is a little leak above the 15" level as i continue filling then at least i'll know i can drop the level enough that the fish will still be able to swim around in there while i fix it.
Touch wood!
