great post.

Assuming you are looking for one. I use the InPond 5-in-1 and love it so far.

Got one with an antique water pump.... lt looks awesome from the street. But a huge PITA to keep the water clear and not full of Algae.

Chlorine tablets.

Unless you have plants below, then it is hit and miss on what survives.

Dang. Don’t know what happened to my OP.


Just looking for recommendations or tips on them. Where to buy. What material. Dos and donts.


TIA

Mine is fiberglass and it was free. You can buy both fiberglass and metal ones with a quick google search around town. The pump I found at an Antique shop while back. I used a bulkhead fitting so my water line and power cord run out the side under the water so it keeps the top clean and free of cords.
Pic when I first filled with water.

The fiberglass are much cheaper and easier to install and deal with. Have installed both.

Obviously the cast iron is more authentic, but honestly, no one is worried about that.

Not to mention the rust factor with cast iron.

Not a big fan of pumps in them, stick a water lily in there to keep algae down--more authentic looking.
