Check the liner for deterioration. It pays to buy the best quality and keep it below the water line as UV sunlight breaks it down.

 

Check for leaks on pump or filter if you have them.

 

Check you aren't filling it too full and causing it to syphon out. Our pond is normally half an inch from being full but if it gets too full with rainwater the water reaches the cement under the coping stones and it syphons out a fair few inches from the top once it has started.

 

If you can't find anthing then look for the wettest area to help identify the leak area.
