This is inside your home footprint, you don't need ARC.
If it leaks, it wasn't engineered right, or wasn't installed right.
Do you want it above (on) your patio? Cut in and below the patio? Or a combination of the 2?
Using for fish? Plants? Neither?
Pond interior to be pvc shell? Tile? River rock bottom?
Natural stone or something more colonial or Italian looking?

Bad news is.. the companies that were focused on water features, went out of business or are all now more focused on landscape designs and installs because there is a larger market. The few of us that are capable of doing a well designed/engineered and installed water feature will be fairly expensive because they are time consuming for the crew and the boss, taking away from the windfall of "easier" landscapes to install.

20 years ago I LOVED the occasional water feature. It would really depend on the specifics now days.
