This is a step by step how to build a backyard above ground pond for less than $400 guide. It only took me a couple of days to build, it was really easy. I've made a list of materials you will need if you want to build your pond the same way i did. Good Luck! Materials needed: Found almost everything at Lowes and Homedepot. 12 - 3x4x8 landscape timbers ($1.29 ea) 4 - 18" angle iron ($12.00 for 5') 1 - Pond liner 10x13 ($64.95) 6 - 1x6x6 Fence boards ($1.19 ea) 18 - 8x16 landscape pavers ($.89 ea) 17 - Decorative pavers ($2.17 ea) 1 - Pond pump ($49.95) Filter media - Bio media - activated carbon ($25.00 altogether at pet store) 1 - Plastic planter box ($14.95) 2' of 3/4" pvc plus a couple connectors ($2-$3 altogether) and about 7' of 1/2" tubing ($2.00)
Hard off for having a go but I feel with a little more time and care taken you could of created something even more beautiful for your money.

Seems to be a lot of work and money for a small water box, anyway it looks clean.
I myself have started something like what was done in this video. I don't plan on spending much money on my pond about $100.00 that's all it cost to do something like this. My pond is going to be used as a grow out tank for my baby EBJDs.
