INCREDIBLE Mini Indoor DIY Pond (Patio Pond)

  • "Make a patio pond"... I've been getting requests to make one for awhile now and truthfully I didn't plan on making one any time soon. However, when I found an awesome planter on clearance for $10, I knew what needed to be done - Make a patio pond (or what I call an indoor pond because I'm not putting it on my patio)!
    Then came the opportunity to get Orange Rice Fish. I wanted to make something truly beautiful that will really showcase the fish. That's where this new mini pond comes into play. What do you think? Can't you picture the contrast of bright orange against the green plants? I can. We'll follow up with that in a few weeks though.

    Been getting requests on this one for awhile now. Didn't plan on making one anytime soon, but I found the planter pot! I hope you all enjoy this one! Let me know what you think. I can't wait to get the rice fish into their new home. 😄

      It looks amazing Tanner! Can you hear the pump when it is running? Do you need to run it constantly for the health of the pond?

      No you can't hear it and I let it run all the time.

    Huh, I was ahead of you this time on this. I built my own patio pond this past summer in the same pot no less lol. I did large gravel in the bottom to distribute weight, a layer of miracle gro organic potting soil in the middle, planted water irises and dwarf cattails, and topped it with a layer of decorative pea gravel. I have no electrical going to the outside so I aerate the water with a mini solar powered floating fountain. I also stocked it with about a dozen rosy red minnows and a handful of nerite snails. The water stays clear enough you can see the bottom and the live plants keep the water filtered so I dont have to rig a solar pump to it. It's simple but it works.
