How strong are they? Can they be free standing or do they need support? I want to make an indoor pond. It will be on a stand about one foot of the ground so i can run a wet/dry on it. But still low enofe for the kids to look in.

A friend of mine has a horse farm and highly recommend them because horses regularly kicked them, but never broke them. I wouldnt have any worries filling one up near full
They are stock tanks made to supply farm animals with water. They are very sturdy. No side supports necessary.
If its outside you could hook the float valve to it. Then no water change needed imo. Thank you all for the info. I was thinking the 100 or 300. It will be the new home for my girls way overstocked tetra tank if i do it.
They are very sturdy. I had a 150 stock tank running full with fantails for 3 yrs without any support and no problems. You'll be fine.
they would be fine in that kind of situation, indoor tank will last a lot longer but outdoor tank here in North TX can last about 15-20 years according to people that have been using them.
