Natural pond w native flora and fauna

[bahamout]

Hi good people,

I'm quite new to fishkeeping and in the process of doing up a balcony pond populated with native species of flora and fauna. Looking for suggestions (shrimps, snails, bivalves, fish, plants) and where I might be able to find them!

Pond conditions:
70cm x 130cm, ~100 gallons
no filter
areas of sandy substrate and pea gravel substrate
exposed to rain

currently inhabitants:
harlequin rasbora
java fern

Hi, curious to know what you ended up with! Trying a similar thing with a much smaller tank (8g) and so far I've gotten chilli and phoenix rasbora and java fern and moss. Had to settle for hornwort and red root floaters to remove nitrogen for now, they are growing (haha) on me though. I think I want to add khuli loaches too eventually. This forum seems pretty dead unfortunately, and I don't know where all the sg fishkeeping community is now
