Hi yes, you can do this
To get acquainted with how to build it, you can refer to the following site:

Forgive me, are you sure that's the right link? It just takes me through to some stuff on quorate about drainage!?

[Complete Novice with a Stupid Idea... Maybe Genius?!]

Firstly, sorry if this is in the wrong section or something... it's my first post.

I recently moved into a new place, and there's an above ground fishpond in the garden. I've attached some pictures.

Measurements inside are 2m x 2m sides (at it's longest), and 90cm deep.

Would it be possible to convert this type of thing into a pool/spa/hot tub, and if so what fittings would I need? Where would I begin? What type of pool could I make?

I'm imagining any plumbing could sit inside the pool, and I could custom build some sort of seating or tray to cover all the gubbins.

The pond is made from cast concrete, so I really wouldn't want to drill into it. Would it be OK to retrofit the required plumbing?

One of the attached images is a diagram I found on some website or other, which seems to show the fittings I would need to achieve what I'm after... but I have no idea if it's accurate!

Also, I've found it difficult to find info without being sold something along the way... are there any good resources for complete noobs that I haven't stumbled upon as yet?

Anyway, thanks in advance. And please forgive me if I've missed out any info.
