Default spring work ~ what do you need to do this year?

Finish digging & building it! I only got down a foot last year, 2 more to go.
Pond will be about 10x12, block walls extending 2 courses above ground, total
depth around 4 1/2ft. It'll have a liner. I'll buy the bottom drain, and
probably the skimmer. All filtration will be DIY, probably 5 gallon drums. I'm
thinking about getting a 200 gallon cone-bottom tank for a settlement chamber.
I'm HOPING to have water in it by late fall, and fish next year.
