    I got 9 earth/mud ponds totalling 1 acres surface area. 2 years already.I also got 5 concrete pond with 72'000 liters capacity, using RAS Recirculating Aquaculture System which generating good profits. These concrete tanks being running for more than 4 years...with almost no changing of water... because I use sendimentation tanks to removed organic matter= fertilzer.
    Mud pond is easy to make, but difficult to manage and waste of resources.

      Filtering the water depends on the type of water filteration you want to employ. If it is a large amount of water it will need some huge investment to clean the water. The best way to clean and recycle the water is through Aquaponics. Your waste water can be used for cropping and the water will be recycled and and pumped back to the fish tanks.

    It is easier to harvest,sort and hatch in concrete ponds.

    Lastly you can build concrete pond in your backyard but cannot dig anywhere because earthen ponds keeps on expanding.

      If an earthen pond is not close to a sustainable flowing stream, which is not advisable, then you need to have a borehole. In this case, where your earthen pond is not close to sustainable flowing stream, then why do you need earthen pond again? Just go for overground types like concrete or tarpaulin ponds.
