kiddy pools

[fishkeeper1]

looking into kiddy pools as ponds for some large cats. would they pop a pool? thats why i dont want to go w/ some lmb cuz they could pop one easily and no i dont want a rubbermaid tub as a pond, thought about it and its too $$ and you cant take it down when ur done w/ it. looking into these, would they work????

I don't see anything wrong with using it, for the price wouldn't hurt to try.

very interesting. it looks like its not inflatable even, just fairly rigid plastic, had one like that when i was a wee one....now you've got me thinking...

Here's a couple of my bookmarks for pools/ponds. Thought they might help.

I might buy the 10' by 30' from Target and double liner it to make a pond. I can take the holes already in it to make filtration as long as I extend them inside of it to the water line.
Just some ideas. I've been throwing some stuff around.

that could be interesting with a little filter modification and suplementation

Used to have one of those intex pools a long time ago. They are well made, much better than the cheaper ones. Fishkeeper1 be careful with the model you were looking at if something fell on one of the walls the water would come out very easily. I would look at the Solid pools made out of plastic they hold up better. But I still like the intex pools alot.

haha!! yeah but i do only have so much space, don't know how it would be to try and convince the roomate we didn't really need the recliner and entertainment center....just a couch, my 300 gal, and a pond with a tsn and an rtc in the living room
