Hey everyone, new here. I am thinking of setting up an indoor pond. It will be used to house a firewood catfish, reticulated catfish, and possibly others in the future. Anyone have any ideas, or have you done this? Appreciate any help.
thanks
Clifford

Thanks for the info guys, I am probably not going to go super exspensive with this one, just I have read about some people using the plastic pools for indoor ponds and thought it might be an inexspensive way to make a nice pond for my fish to grow big in.

Well necrocanis (dead dog?) You can do an 8'x 10'x 2' for under $600 including filters and pumps and that is less than 50 cents a gallon.

That sounds pretty descent. What materials does that price include?

Check out the "raised indoor pond" thread in the "DYI and Ideas" forum. there is a materials list for this one, You make 2 drop in box filters from 44g storage tubs and it is powered by a 4250gph pump. There also some pics of other types of ponds in that thread, I like this one because it is very solid while not expensive.
