On another list I'm on, someone suggested putting one of those plastic milk
crates on the bottom, weighed down with a heavy rock. If your pond is deep
enough, I guess that might work.

You might also try terra cotta or clay pipes set in the bottom of the
pool; they're smaller than cinder blocks, and won't change the ph of the
water (which I've heard cinder blocks can do). The key is to provide some
nooks that paws and bills can't get into.
