lots available on eBay.com, amazon.com might try google.com
if you find one please let me know Jessiemaemilligan1949@gmail.com
I've seen smallish floating units that spout water and emit light at night and they were solar powered.
I have seen solar power floating fountains on wish for fairly cheap, but if you are looking for some without the waiting part I would look at hardware stores or if you have any places in your area that install/build ponds you could contact them to see what they have available
You need the solar converter that you should be able to purchase at any water fountain outlet.
At this level almost any DC pump will do. Try to match the pump power requirements to the output of the solar panel (match is not that critical). My caution being that too much of a power mismatch (solar power available as compared to the pump load) may produce more DC voltage than the pump can tolerate.
Good luck. Sounds like a great project.
