Another thing to consider is where the pipe is from the house that  
will transport the greywater ? ( is it on that side of the house ?  
How deep is it ? is the pond downhill from that ?) I also question  
whether the preform is deep enough, large enough and  strong enough.  
For my own greywtaer system I used the ultra heavy grade pond liner  
and it's 20 feet long by 12 feet wide 40 inches deep ( about as deep  
as cattail/reed roots descend). That was the size I heard recommended  
for a family of four's "normal" greywater use)
