I love it. I’m about to rip out my 12,000 gallon Aquascape pond and my 30,000 gallon ingrond swimming pool to make a 75,000 gallons swimming pond. Excavation has begun. Living the pond lifestyle without Aquablocks. Lol

Seems like it would be easer to have a 1000 gallon OSSF installed as the water-treatment for a natural pond filter. The water in my clarifier-tank is quite clear where I imagine a pond would use UV instead of chlorine like my OSSF for my home. With a large enough OSSF you could let the trash-tank fill for years as the pond would be producing far less waste than a three bedroom home full of people. Then for cleanup you would just hire a septic-pump-truck to empty your pond's trash-tank & aeration-tank every 3-5 years or longer. I'm no engineer or permit approver so IDK what they'd allow.

3:16 the cost is in an accident, if someones foot goes through a rotted-crate that requires stitches & antibiotics then that's over $3200 in medical bills or monthly-insurance-contracts worth of problems. Just put a Do-Not-Step sign somewhere there, or keep-out-of-water sign, maybe 'authorized personal only'... IDK how negligent litigation works. My county put $3k bond on two teens for having fart-spray in school so I risk very little.

The milk crates are strong enough to hold the weight of a person.

@@TheStump29 I agree as we've all seen the viral milk-crate-challenge... but they are not manufactured to perform that task so you would assume the liability risk, especially since they are hidden with only you knowing what's actually under there. You want a warranty to blame so that the accident is an act-of-god.
