Default Putting in pond,,,need help

Hey everyone My name is Mark and I am from Modesto California, This is
my first time doing this and would was wondering if you folks could help a
newbie. I attached a pic where im going to put my pond and my main

question
is that I do not intend to put fish or plants in this pond just a planter
type water feature and was wondering if I actually need a filter system or
can I just use a standard fountain pump? As you can see the pond will be
kind of big. I attached two pics,,,one is of my house and where I want the
pond and another of basically what I want it too look like.

Any help would be great

no fish or plants doesn't really qualify as a pond; it's a water feature,
one of the great disfigurements of modern domestic design. It will knock
millions off the value of your house. You don't need a filter, just a splash
of some hideous chemical from time to time to kill the algae

You've got that right. Oh well, to each, his/her own. Not even a tadpole?
What a waste.
