Also .. have you considered using something like a med sized tub just as the water area and building a deck land area around it?



use plywood as top layer around the tub, water seal the plywood, then put some astro turf over the plywood ... I did a set up like this years ago but instead of a tub I used a kiddie pool, it worked out pretty well.



You could do land area on all 4 sides .. on 3 sides or even just on 1 side ... anyway you like.



You could use a canister filter like a fuval fx5 or etheim thermo canister filter and hid the unit under neath the land area, hide all the plumbing under there also.
