Build a DIY Stock Tank Pool and Create a Backyard Oasis

By Bradley Ford

You've seen them on Instagram or other social media platforms. Quaint, redneck-y, trendy, stock tank pools. There was a time when I passingly considered them "cute." But then the pandemic hit and we were faced with spending a summer at home—no water parks, no public pools, no visiting friends' pools. With a 5-year-old to keep busy for the summer, I suddenly started to look at a stock tank pool as something we needed. So, after a frantic search for the biggest stock tank possible, an afternoon of research, and an Amazon order, the project was set in motion.

In a few days, I had everything I needed to get started. It took me a day to figure things out and get it set up, and another day a short while later to go overboard and add a small deck. I'm sharing how I set up ours as a general guide on how to build your own DIY stock tank pool. Below is a list of things you'll need. I've provided the items I used, but you should pick the sizes or models that work best for your pool. If you choose a smaller tank, you might want to use a smaller pump and filter. Or, if your tank is much smaller, you might forgo the pump and filter altogether and just refill it when you want to use it. Be prepared to improvise a little, as you'll be connecting things that may not have originally been intended to work together.
