if you have a home depot around you they may be able to order you one becaus the home depot by me has big rubber ponds .

you could dig a hole then put a garbage can with water in the hole then you got yourself an underground pond. but seriously just use a rubbermaid heated trough. maybe about $200-$300

its an indoor pond and garbage can its not a very efficient shape. I want somthing big and very cheap. ha ha

rubbermaid 300 gallon works great, I bought mine for 190$ but had to wait a week because it was a special order item. Btw how cheap?

 

[Fish Eat Fish]

well im not sure yet but im setting it up for a friend and its going in the basement of his house. Hes in college so I mean that kind of cheap.

Kiddie pool = $50.

Rubbermaid tub = $200.

Pond liner = $100 (plus support hardware)

And it goes up from there.

Well as you can see in my avatar i used a kiddie pool for about 6 months and it worked fine until one of my rays put a hole in it. I even considered to get another but just got the rubbermaid instead, try one they only cost about $15 but before you put fish in it fill it a quarter of the way add a whole lot of salt and scrub the whole liner then empty and refill. Ohh i forgot to add to hold the walls up so that they never cave in, make a wood frame and staple it on, I'll try and see if i have any old pics.
