We have a free standing waterfall that we purchased at Home Depot. Very simple. It came in two pieces plus the pump. We have it inside our CYV lanai and enjoy the soothing sounds of the water. We have it on a timer. The pump goes on around 8AM and off around 9PM. We also have a hot tub and when the rocks and water start developing some green spots or algae, we add a small amount of pool chemicals (bromine) into the water. We have no pets so drinking water would not be an issue. Also, the waterfall is inside the lanai so no harm to birdies, geckos or froggies. Very minimal maintenance. As mentioned by earlier posters, just monitor the water levels so you don't burn out the pump.
