Making an Indoor Pond is Fun and Easy!
Any good quality, plastic container of about 10 inches in depth
will do the job. The container should be at least 30 inches wide and 36 inches
long (plastic storage containers work great).
Surround the container with flat rocks which have been washed thoroughly. The
last layer of rocks should cover the top edge of the container.
Use a 75 gph pump to circulate the water. This pump can be used to power a
small, trickling waterfall or fountain.
Put a few aquatic plants that have been planted in aquatic
planting medium into the pond.
One or two small goldfish can survive in this Pond. Don't forget to feed them
(sparingly).
Add a few plants in Terra Cotta pots around the back edge of the little pond for
a natural backdrop.
Now you have a little bit of nature inside the house to enjoy all year around.
