That would be an aquarium. Your pond would either have to be above ground,
or you'll have to build a subterrain observation area.

I imagine he knew that. However, any books/articles about building
aquariums will tell you the important detail - the thickness of glass or
plexiglass you'll need, and how to seal it. Treat it as an aquarium equal
to the height between the bottom of your viewing window and the surface of
the pond. Any depth below the window makes no difference to the pressure
the window has to withstand.

I sent the post because I gave up on trying to find a step-by-step guide
someone from southern california made a year or two back.

Maybe second time is my luck.

This is what I was looking for, but looking at it, I doubt that's what the
OP had in mind.

Wow - that's gorgeous! Looks a wee bit overstocked for the photo,
though. ;-)

Once I saw on some site a pond with window. It is a outdoor pond with
window that you can see fish from basement. If I remeber, it was on some
site with pond tour. I am bought a country house and I am doing some
changes. The big pond on the back side of the house with window from a
basement that I can see my pets. Can anyone have a link to this or
similar site? I need a idea how to make this.
Sorry about bad english!

This sounds like such a cool project. I know little about ponds, but I
can envision something like this as an aquarium, or a pond/aquarium
hybrid.
Sorry about my complete lack of Croatian.

I think he knows it. However, any books / articles aquarium building will tell you important details - the thickness of glass or plexiglass you need, and how to seal. It as an equal height of the bottom of the aquarium viewing window between the ponds and surface.
