Good afternoon,
As a fisheries biologist, my daughter's nursery has contacted me regarding advice on building a garden pond for the children using a tractor tyre. Unfortunately, I have very little knowledge of building such things but would still like to help. The tyre will be placed on solid concrete in the playground so no digging available and I don't think they want fish, it is purely to encourage wildlife, frogs etc. I saw an article which suggested filling the hole on the ground with concrete and using a water sealer. Any idea if this is suitable and what shall I put underneath the tyre before starting?
