Just dig a hole and throw a liner and some water in. If I can do it, it can’t be that hard.

@Ruth decided to go for the ''stand-up'' version, raised above ground. Not sure whether 'digging a hole' would already be the first problem, where she is :)

You showed me yours so I’ll show you mine!! 🤣. It goes down a bit. Waaay smaller than yours and not as natural, but I have some water beetles, wriggly things, brown swimming specks and an ugly nymph thing! There’s also a local cat who frequents for a drink if that counts as wildlife!

I'd just plant it out fairly heavily, give it a couple months add fish. :]

... and @Ruth don't be tempted to overfed. :dodgy2:

That's nice. How was it built? I'm thinking I need to add yours on top of mine and slap some windows on the side too!

What size is it? Doesn't look much smaller.
