will the sharp fins of bullhead catfish pierce pond liner?

Hi,

Will the SHARP fins of bullhead catfish in a garden pond my 45 mil epdm pond liner in situations where they are startled and may haphazardly brush against a crease/fold in the liner, thereby puncturing it?

Or is this not a realistic concern?

I don't believe that is possible...

45 mil is pretty tough. I wouldn't think it could puncture the liner.
