I would suggest a skimmer to pull any debris off the surface of the pond as well as to break the surface and help to infuse oxygen. Check out the Minnesota Water Garden Society web page. www.mnwgs.org
They are a great bunch who are just as willing to give input as the people here.

Hope that helps.

Do you need any bio-balls? I have about 10 gallons of them, you are welcome to them.

If it's that deep you better check your codes. Some kid drowns in it and you lose everything. You are responsible if you make the hole... Just something to think about. I have three ponds and kept them all just under three feet deep for this very reason. You may have to put a fence around it.
