Advice Needed: Turning a cement hole into a water feature

The previous owners of my house attempted a pond in the back yard. And by attempted, they dug a hole about 18" down, lined it with rock and cement, then put a rubber liner on it. The rubber liner was easily ripped by the rock & cement so now I just have... hole. I've got two options in my head: Hire a landscaping company to rip the whole damn thing out, or (and this is the hopefully cheaper/prettier option) find some sort of option to seal it with some kind of rubber paint. If anyone has advice or product suggestions, I'd love to have them! submitted by /u/TheBigBeardedGeek [link] [comments]
