Nope, no liner. I had to soak the wood to get out the stuff left over from the alcohol, but I like how the look of the natural wood looks. | |

| I had an 8' round water trough which we coated on the outside w/tar and buried it to the rim, lined the rim with rock and added a waterfall. Worked great for over 11 yrs. It had a bio ball box filter. I had koi and goldfish. Luckily it was close to the house so that I didn't get any heron action, never had probs w/ snakes or others. | |
