In Reply to: INDOOR POND IDEA posted by cmturt on November 27, 2002 at 12:02:29:

The only other thing is finding a sealant that bonds preformed pond-plastic to plexi-glass

:I have an idea for an indoor pond I would like to share. I like ponds, but also enjoy an underwater aquarium view of my turtles. I was thinking of purchasing a premolded pond--perhaps 100-150 gallons, building a structure to support it, and cutting a rectangular hole(with curved corners)into the side to be replaced with a sheet of plexiglass, cemented from the inside with a good aquarium/pond sealant. the pond would be about 2-3 feet above the floor to provide a good view. I figure the pressure of the water on the sides would aid in a good seal, and im wondering about weight issues on a standfard floor(would rather not put in basement). any comments/suggestions?
