Such a good idea for folks who cant dig for whatever reason. You can sit beside your pond and see the fish easily, and if you have a big dumb dog, like i do, it is more likely i can train him to stay out of the pond! ❤❤❤love everything about this!

Fishing line 2” apart in rows above your pond will keep any birds from hunting your fish. They won’t try and dive in afraid of clipping their wings and practically invisible to the human eye. Pond is fantastic. Not a fan of the above water lights and exposed intake n outtake pipes but plants can cover those. In the end a very economical solution without spending thousands on pumps and filters. Very ASMR feeling watching at night with a cocktail Im sure. Just overall lovely!

This is easily the best, most informative video on the subject that I've seen. I inherited an in ground pond full of sludge and rocks that I've rehabbed, but have been lacking a video with easy filtration directions that will work for my situation. I was gifted 4 koi and had one goldfish. The koi have propagated to include 20 new fish over 2 years, so I need to make sure my filtration is up to the task. Thanks greatly! 😁👍

Hey i love this pond. To help with the green build up in the pond get urself a pleco and it will eat that stuff and keep u from having to drain and clean

@cetinagar

7 ай бұрын

Pleco’s can’t survive (in general) colder water. Green build-up, as you mention it, is algae -> the pond is getting too much light (sun or artificial). If you want to get rid of it, don’t put a fish in an environment it is not meant to be (pleco’s also need a real big piece of wood to munch on). Take away the root cause instead of battling the consequences. In my opinion leave it as it is, algae mean your pond is healthy and a far more better environment for your goldfish that a clean tub. More natural, than artificial. Also algae provide a food source for your fish. P.S.Pleco’s produce far more waist than help your system. It is misinformation spread by the internet, like yours.

Your pond is lovely, but I have an idea to make it even better - atop the mechanical filter is an excellent spot for a large maple bonsai tree!

Should be proud of yourself. Inspirational

we had a heron try to get our fish once so we stretched netting over pond it is a pain to stretch tight. i like the cover you built, we have koi that have grown so huge i doubt any bird could eat them but don't really want them trying so i have a mesh tent that just sits over pond in fall after plants are cut down.

I solved my Heron problem with M8 steel uprights and thin trailing garden wire forming a wire fence. Then I added a few horizontal pieces of wire to stop the bird landing directly on the shallow area and job done. Its a lot less obtrusive. If the Heron has no way to wade into the pond, cannot land on a shallow area and cannot walk up to the sides of a pond, they can't fish.

Great job 👍 Only one thing I would do is put some gravel on the bottom. I'd try to match the gravel with the one filter on the right with the gravel. Great job 👍 Do you do this as a job? I'm wondering because you do it very well. Have a wonderful day/evening.

The only issue I have with this is there is no overflow I can see, other than the holes in the wood at the back, if that is the overflow, surely it will get between the wood and the insulation, rotting the wood. Just like to add that other than that I think it's a cracking job 😊
