Y'all ever seen the enclosures zoos use to keep big cats? Big, wide moat surrounding a "habitat" with a fence for the onlookers. I like to build something like that for my resident forgotten beasts. I line the walls of the visitor area with caged colossi and hydra.

In my experience, it'll be there forever. Make it a zoo.

Are the barrels in a furniture stockpile?

Personally, I think it's a little boring not having an avatar.

Food is kept in barrels, too. Unless your furniture stockpile is miles away I'm not sure why you'd want to keep empty barrels in your food stockpile. They'll grab an empty barrel, stick it in the stockpile and fill it with food automatically. Try getting the empties out of the food stockpile.
no can store food in barrels as well. thats the only container you can use to store food in as a matter of factSome is kept in bags, too. Mostly flours and especially seeds. Though seed bags can only be stored in barrels oddly enough, so you'll have barrels filled with bags filled with seeds.

Hmm? This isn't an aquifer we're talking about, is it? Otherwise just dig down to the side of the flooded passages; bypass them.
If it is an aquifer, you've got a little project ahead of you to breach it. It's really just a bit of digging.

Did you just get a ton of food from the caravan or a butchered creature? They'll stash the food in the stockpile before coming back to put it in barrels a lot of the time.

Well, they'll get water for the pond at the nearest water source. Which might be the pond you're filling unless you restrict them to the water source you want.

You need to hit (o) and somewhere in there, can't remember where sorry, you can set them to ONLY take from the designated water source.

Make sure they aren't taking from the pond they're filling. They'll get that error when they go to get that 1/7 tile and it dries up.
