Well, I think I've solved that problem by using a different technique now.
Earlier I was trying to use triangles to create the pond surfaces, now I'm
simply using a cylinder which is easier and has more benefits anyway.

I'm trying to decide the best way to take this to the next phase--actually
deforming the terrain based on the paths of the water, as clipka discussed.
Perhaps you could store the altitude of each point of the hf in an array,
subtracting and adding to the altitude based on the water movement.
