I repurposed an old porcelain shower tray and I got seed shrimp and hoverfly larvae / blood worms. Frogs lounge in it at night. I did put plants in though.
Somebody I know has frogs in her tiny pond.
Wildlife won't always be big or photogenic, but you want a specific critter you probably have to spec the pond to suit it.

I've tried a couple of small ponds in the past and they sort of turn into stagnant puddles rather than self sustaining eco systems.
I wonder if there's a minimum size where ponds work like ponds?
