Lovely yard Liz. Like the rock work in the 2nd pic. I've never thought of using a rubbermaid as a pond, what size is that? Now that's really got me thinking for a summer project :D

:drool: That is magnificent! You've got a good touch with the plants just like your fish and other pets.

Thanks Steve.. you can do it too!
 
Thanks for the confidence :D
Where do you get the large rubbermaids? I've never seen any over 80 gallons and I snagged that up as soon as I saw it @ the store. I've checked home depot, canadian tire, walmart, those are the only stores I can think of.

Do you have farm& tractor or any livestock feed places.. or Country Max.. farm&Family, Lowe's we also use this same type to keep them in for winter in basement.. Agways ??
 
There's a livestock feed store in a town close by but I've never seen big containers there, just bails of hay, rat poison, food pellets etc. Never heard of country max or farm&family. My town sucks for animal stores, it's all coffee shops and used car dealerships. Guess I'll have to trek into Toronto one day and take a look around there.

maybe you can find someone who sells them by looking under rubbermaid online and then getting dealer in your area..they come in 100gal,150gal all the way till at least the 300gal. :D
