Habitat - Outdoor :: Pond Search

[Annabel]

Hi, I have 1 turtle and i am about to buy another one. Therefore, i need to buy an outdoor pond. I live in Melbourne, Victoria so do you guys know any good hardware stores, pet stores or nurserys/garden supply stores in Melbourne? I'm having a bit of trouble finding places through the internet.

Home Depot sells those pre formed ponds but I dont like to use those as they tend to be small. If you want something nice sized, go to www.craigslist.com and look in the pets section. You could prob find a nice sized pond for super cheap and it may come with extra stuff. I got my pond off there for 100$ and it came with some stuff and it got delivered to my house and was helped put in my back yard.

here are some pics if you want to check them out.

Thankyou but did you write in "Ponds" in the search box or , well, what did you do exactly because when i did it . i pressed on pets, then it had a search box, so i wrote in Ponds and it said, "Nothing found for that search (All words must match)." please tell me exactly what you wrote , thankyou

@Annabel aussie aussie aussie. oi! oi! oi! haha jk.
for the pond, you can try stock tanks (water troughs for horses), or build a pond from scratch.
That way you can customize to your needs.

Farm supply centers might have stock tanks. Garden and home centers should have pre-formed ponds. Stock tanks would be the easiest to setup and these can be used indoors.

Do you know if your turtle is a male? If so, then you should reconsider getting a second one.

Gracie i looked in that area and it seems like no one uses craigslist in your area lol..bad luck

@SINI5T3R annabel's area right? yeah bad luck. it is another country though,
so they might have something other than craigslist to use.
