Instandponds are an intriguing portable outdoor pond that allows you to easily disassemble and move the koi pond in case you move or re-landscape your yard. The main trouble with outdoor koi ponds is the effort, energy and expense to dig a hole, add the plumbing and electrical, and line the pond – just to get it up and running. Now if you decide to move, the pond either stays or gets ripped out by the new homeowner. If you want a new pond, you have to start the process all over again.
UK-based Atlantica Gardens invented the ponds to be portable, plus also have viewing windows so you can enjoy more of your pond. The company has been making the ponds since 2004 that are laser cut from 3mm-thick 316 stainless steel. A box-welded pond liner can also be sunk below ground to make the pond deeper. In addition to being able to move the pond, you can always make it bigger as well. Instantpond comes in a variety of sizes including the 3m x 3m x 76cm pond shown in the image and video that costs just under £6,900 (Around $10,400 USD).
We are not sure how well these would hold up holding saltwater, but this would be a cool way to build a backyard reef aquarium.
