tambak
Explanation:
Agak aneh rasanya hutan ditebangi untuk membuat kolam (yang konotasinya untuk rekreasi), saya pribadi lebih mengarah pada 'tambak' (kolam untuk budidaya ikan/udang)

empang


Explanation:
'tambak' selalu terasosiasi dengan budidaya species air tawar untuk tujuan komersil.

'kolam' ukurannya secara relatif kecil, seperti yang ada di rumah-rumah.

'empang' ukurannya relatif lebih besar dari 'kolam' tetapi tidak terikat untuk pembudidayaan komersil suatu spesies air tawar.
