I have an idea to make an indoor pond (right now im figuring out where to put it:D) Im planning on buying a 300-500gallon tub sort of thing to house my RTC for the rest of its life... So I what I need to know is where I can buy a tub of this magnitude and how much will it cost? Also would I be able to filter it with a couple of big Ehiems or would I need something else for filtration?
I'm new to the whole indoor pond thing so any tips would be appreciated.

2 years on this site and you still dont know theres an indoor pond forum....
thanks for being polite about it :( besides that do you have any knowledge about what I should get?
 
Why don't you knock some planks together, make a box and throw some pond liner in it?

Assembling it indoors would be an advantage as the final size could be determined by the space available and not the the size of the access to the space...

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but a 500 gallon tub will only house a RTC for a year or two before it needs an upgrade, unless you mean a 3000-5000 gallon tub then it would be good for life. You could talk to a feed store and they can order pretty much any size cattle trough you want to hold water and dress it up like many do. Good examples can be found in the pond section of the forum.
