What customers say
Customers overwhelmingly praise the stunning design and exceptional quality of this large mermaid fountain.

Know before you buy
No, the fountain does not include a pump. You will need to purchase a submersible pump separately, with a recommended flow rate of 250 to 350 gallons per hour.
The fountain is designed to connect to standard 1/2-inch ID PVC tubing. Ensure you have this on hand to connect your pump to the water inlet within the oyster shell.
This is not a self-contained fountain, meaning it does not have its own reservoir base. It is specifically designed to be placed in or at the edge of an existing pond or water garden.
The fountain weighs 202 pounds. Due to its significant weight and solid cast stone construction, we recommend having at least two people available to assist with placement and installation.
The fountain features a high-quality, fade-resistant stained finish designed for outdoor durability. While it is weather-resistant, some natural weathering may occur over many years depending on your specific climate.
Assembly is straightforward, but because of the weight of the cast stone, it requires careful handling. You will primarily need to position the statue and connect the internal tubing to your pump.
