Here's my little pond in a pot. It's only about 2 feet deep and a 16" across. No pumps or filters.
I wanted a water garden so bad, but didn't want to attract snakes or provide too much breeding area for mosquitos, so..this is the result, which I started last last summer.
All the plants in it survived right where it is over the winter (except the umbrella palm that I just got a few months ago).
Now that the sting algae had subsided, I'm hoping for iris and waterlily blooms soon!

Anyone else have a potted pond?
