you can get some colorful plastic plants/flowers at local craft shops in the area....and for god's sake, why isn't that easter island head spitting water out of his mouth into the fountain??? I made a fountain yeras ago....sold it on ebay but i used that exact same moai..just drill a hole in the center of it's mouth, straight back about half way through the head, then drill a hole in the bottom, the same size as the plastic feed tube, so that it meets your first hole, forming and upside-down "L" configuration......set the tube in the bottom and seal all around it with hot glue/silicone caulk or what have you...let dry then fire it up....it's a cool. cheap, easy effect....maybe some dry ice in the pond to create mist....i used to have a fog machine in my tiki room for parties....that was always fun.
