I have two small ponds one of which is in a half barrel with water lilies, it was lovely last year but had to clean it up this year, the other in a big plastic tub which also lovely but needed a pump, worked well when the sun was out but useless any other time, I had fish in this little pond but they succumed to cats and a rat, leaving the pond ransid so no more fish for me but I will continue with the water feature, for birds to drink from and insects and frogs can frequent.
brilliant.We had a pond in our last home .Which since moving house have missed.Having only a small area in our new garden available for a water feature this will be the perfect solution.
I'd love to do this with my tin bath, but have 2 questions: 1) How best to plug the hole in the side? 2) Do I need to line it if I'm putting fish in, or is the tin safe for them, I wouldn't want them to be poisoned or anything! (I'm no scientist!) Many thanks Steph
