Default Leaking Concrete Pond

A patching cement holds better than silicone. Moisture gets into cement and
can sometimes loosen the silicone.

Can anyone recommend a sealer that will cope with small cracks in a

concrete
pond (built in 1969) Its a 20' X 15' freeform pond with Koi. Thanks!

I'm
loosing water like crazy.


I would have thought if it was a specific crack that could be scraped
out and cleaned up, the silicone gel used for joining glass to make
aquariums would be a safe bet, it should be fairly easy to find a
small tube for a specific small area
