Can it be used as a fish pond for patio?

There are no holes in the bottom. I had to drill some for my plants but I think you could use it as a fish pound assuming that the side walls will with stand the pressure of the water.

It probably could though i have not used it for that purpose. I bought it to be a turtle pond. It is very good heavy black plastic that i think could withstand water that gets hot enough for laundry. If this one cannot i would doubt any plastic could.

I don't think there would be a problem placing a fish tank on top of it. It seems well built.

According to the instructions it is not intended for outdoor use. We purchased it to use in an outdoor pond, and wrapped the controls in a plastic bag to protect from moisture.

You could-- just don't overload it with wood. This will hold a lot of wood, so you'll generate a lot of heat and you might not be able to get far enough away. But it would be perfect for that space on a cool evening! I have mine on a 10x10 patio and haven't had any issues.

Although I like this raised garden bed for the yard, I'd never use it on a balcony. It would leak. I'd get small kiddy pool fill bottom with sand, and finish with light-weight potting soil.

I'm not sure on your answers except it doesn't have holes. I made planters out of them and they are the most beautiful planters with petunias and sewwt potato plants running over the sides. I love mine. good luck on your fish pond.

I don't see why not, but, I dont have fish, I have been using it for my small hydro herb garden, I can't grow cilantro no matter what I do. It only takes a little, so use carefuly.

If it can physically fit in it, yes, I have mine in a 2ftx2ft patio ornamental "pool" it works great

I would think so. I'm using it outside as a plant stand and bird perch, but it's very sturdy and the legs are even.

Absolutely, they would love it I'm sure! We don't have fish in ours but we have a small filtration pump which keeps it quite clean & I put clarifier in when it clouds a bit which causes debris to fall to the bottom. Depending on where you live I have heard that herons may come by & grab a gold fish out of the pond like it's a suchi bar so people put screen over the top.

Yes, we used it in our pond with no problems to the fish or pets drinking the water. However, I must say, in our fountain, despite using this product we had mosquito larvae develop so I have not purchased anymore of it as it did not prevent mosquito larvae. I have switched back to using Mosquito dunks which are also safe for ponds - they work great but are a bit more messy as they break down.

I believe so. It works great in our yard at my koi pond, quirrels and small birds also set it off. It also keeps our dog from drinking pond water.

Yes. I have been using it on concrete patio in my backyard for almost 10 months now.

I would put drinks, a lamp, or food on it, but a 3 gallon fish tank might be risky. It's not a large surface. I would put a fish tank on a larger surface that couldn't get knocked over by accident

Absolutely. It's very sturdy. However, the plastic is not very good insulation from extreme heat or cold. To keep fish outside even in mild winters, you'll need to insulate it by either burying it as far into the ground as you can manage or wrapping it in insulation. Also, it could get pretty warm if left in direct sunlight for many hours a day. I would recommend getting a cheap pool thermometer to monitor the temperature for the first year.

We are using it in a pond. Our pond is approx. 300 gallons and it works well. I do not think it is for fish tanks. It is for outdoor ponds
