Can I use my Sump Pump for a pond?
Well, I have a sump pump because there is an small underground river under my house. The pump pumps water outside through a tube and it iot just gets the lawn all wet. Could I dig a pond and lead the tube into the pond? I may want o put fish in it, the pumps goes off every 5 minutes.

As far as using that water for pond water, I would not because you have no idea what is in it. Use tap water for your pond. And if it is chlorinated, use a dechlorinator in it.
Build a bog garden where your lawn gets wet. Here's how: http://pondlady.com/Articles/bog_garden.html
no u can not use that . they make spacial pumps for ponds also u need a filtering system also to keep the water clean for fish u want top put in also it is best to contact pro on this to make sure u r doing it .
you could use it to fill the pond, but what happens when the pond is full, same problem. and you will still need a pond pump/filter, that will clean and oxygenate the water in the pond or the fish will die. fish breathe oxygen just like you, their gills extract it from the water.
