Stock tanks as garden ponds

I have always wanted a garden pond but dreaded the work of digging and lining and in-ground pond. I have seen stock tanks used for a variety of purposes, and it only makes sense to put them to work in the garden, too. I think I still have to many trees in my garden to make this practical, due to all the leaves they drop, but I will store this idea away for later.
