Courtesy of a pond expansion last fall, I have a preformed liner (about 100
gallons) that I'm thinking about using as a lily pond. I can put in direct
sun and make it look nice.
The lilies didn't do well in my pond since I think they didn't get enough
sun--still won't if I put them back in the main pond.
My question is if I establish a lily pond do I need filtration? I wouldn't
put fish in it but am concerned about stagnant water.
Any advice would be appreciated.

I ran my pre-formed pond, 350 G., for a few years with no circulation.
Had a few goldfish in it. I finally got ashamed of the water quality
when I stirred up the muck, but things seemed to live in it okay.
