Question 1

Am looking at this to make a small pond in my cobbled yarden. Has anyone used this sat on the floor, rather than dug into the ground?

Accepted Answer

I wouldn’t recommend using this freestanding. It’s fairly strong but is designed to be supported by the ground around it.

Question 2

I would like this product for the toads and frogs in the garden - what else do I need to get it up and running.

Accepted Answer

I bought this for my daughter and grandson, she just dug a hole placed the pond in and filled in around with the soil. She then collected dead wooden logs , branches, stones etc and arranged them around the pond making sure there was places where the frogs etc can climb out ie a branch in the water or big stone, she managed to get frog spawn and some pond water which she topped up with tap water. Then she got some plants to put in the bottom of the pond like you would use in a cold water aquarium. She landscaped the rest of the soil around about and put in some plants it looks great all the spawn hatched and she has added a goldfish in July. This was a spring/ easter project and she has got resident frogs now. Hope this helps also the internet will give you loads of information on making a frog and nature pond Ann

Question 3

Can you find any ponds smaller than 77cm by 70cm (surface).

Accepted Answer

You can use an old sink or baby bath or even a washing up bowl. Just make sure it has a way for animals to climb out

Question 4

I have a family of hedgehogs in the garden, would they be able to climb out if they fell in?

Accepted Answer

How lovely, a family of hedgehogs!! Yes I think they'd climb out as long as you keep water topped up so they can get on the ledges
