re: How to get a pond to retain water.....

It's an average of about 4-5' deep if it gets all the way full. Ground water isn't an option because the acquifier is about 100' below the surface

The well at our pond is 400' deep, you just gotta drill..

And take a backhoe get that thing down at least 10' deep, with La heat you'll need to get as deep as possible especially if you don't plan on aeratoring it..
