Diy Urn Fountain Garden Pond This is the fountain that I helped my friend build over memorial day weekend at his house. We started with a hole that would hold the 40gal tube. Then we buried it and made a metal support top for it to hold the river pebbles and covered it with gutter guard and wire tied it down. Then we cut out the places for the pots to go and put blocks in the tube to hold them. We had to add bulk heads to the pots and plumb in hoses to the pump. Inside the pots put in stand pipes just below the water surface to make the water act like a fountain at the top. We hooked every thing up and gave it a test run it worked great. Then we stacked the rock around the tube part and filled in the center with river pebbles. Then we added the plant on the rock at the side. Turned it on and cleaned up our mess. Worked great and I think it looks good!! The pump used was a 540 GPH pump with a filter sponge on it and a water splitter T. The small vase had the inside pipe cut lower because of the lower head pressure It wanted to shoot the water higher lowering the pipe helped make them more even. The sump was just a 40 gal. water trough. Sorry no fish Day 1 was used to roughly lay it out and gather supplies. Day 2 we put everything together. Day 3 we BBQ-ed and enjoyed.
