It tends to cause fairly serious issues with humidity. As long as you're
prepared to handle that and lower lighting levels, it's just like building
an outdoor pond, without the ice :-)

yes. http://weloveteaching.com/mypond/VF/veggie_filter.html
the easiest way to do an indoor pond is with a preformed stock water tanks
and then build around it. I plan to make another pond in my basement as
soon as I can get all the stuff out of the basement (mother died, all her
stuff ended up in our basement and she was a "collector"). Ingrid

I've view many on the net that are above ground, built in pre-existing
buildings/houses. Then I've seen on pond tours houses built just for the in
ground ponds, and houses built around the pond. Some amazing things money
can buy. ;-) If there is a pond club in your area, you ought to check it
out. ~ jan

Go to google, click on images, type in Indoor Koi Pond. Now some of them
have nothing to do with indoor ponds, so you'll just have to click thru,
there are some amazing ones thru out the choices. ~ jan

My aunt had a small pond (wood frame,
liner) that wasn't indoors, but it was on her
deck just outside her living room. I would
think that sort of arranagement - a deck or
even a covered patio or sun room - might
work and would avoid the humidity issues

I had one on the side deck outside and under the bedroom window. One night
of lovelorn frog calls and it was moved. ;-)

NOW THAT IS MORE LIKE IT. That is exactly what I want. We bought a duplex
across the alley and down a bit from us.
http://weloveteaching.com/woodward/w...ownstairs.html
It is so high up on the hill that from the upstairs window we can see Lake
Michigan over the top of the trees. And there is a third floor, a full
height attic. We are planning on finishing the third floor, install an
elevator to the 2nd and 3rd floors http://tinyurl.com/cprzu and build a pond
in the back yard with a greenhouse over it. It has this delicious full
south sun exposure the sun just pours down onto the back yard. And THAT is
the pond and greenhouse I want!!!!
Then we move over there and rent our current house!! Ingrid
