This video chronicles the build of 'Mildred Manor', a 100 gallon pond nestled in 32 square feet of natural habitat for my red-eared slider, Mildred. Join me as I walk you through the thoughts and steps made to bring this beautiful oasis to life.

You brought that turtle out of the trenches and into a mansion. Kudos to you man, and it looks fantastic 👏

Great job, this is a very happy slider with a nice pond to live in!
Looks very cool but I would've liked to see the entire build, everything up top too.
WOW! Mildred Manor is fabulous. I'm going to show this to my niece. She has a box turtle which is still young. I am sure she will get fantastic ideas from this. Thank you.

While I really enjoyed this video and you did an amazing job for me I would want to be able to see my turtles swimming around . The way this set up is the only way you can see them is by standing over the enclosure . But everyone is different and again you should be proud of the hard work you put in for that sweet girl you rescued

I know me too. I really want to find a way to see my turtles
Very nice I will be copying this very soon. I’m in the process of upgrading my 100 gallon tank. I was thinking glass aquariums but this is way better with a lot more walking room while keeping a large swimming pool. How often do you have to clean the dry substrate. Also what size and where did you get the black tub.
This video demonstrates the perfect balance of impressive showcasing and proper care. With most enclosures, finding these two features simultaneously is very rare. Good job
Dope
deserves more views

can you make a video on the filtration system?
May I ask what products you used for water proofing?? My friend gave me two turtles in a 20g tub. They're 8 years old. Got a new stock tank but wasn't sure what to seal wood with.
Hey bro just wondering where did you get the tub from?
I am having to modify my Thrive topper to accommodate my huge female RES. Tell me how you did your ramp.
What plants are those can u tell me where you got them??
This is what im looking, unlike the others that their basking area is just a stone
Epic, I need one of these human sized for me.

You could probably save money and get a tween sized one. You’d fit
Do you build these for people??? 😭 I need one and I cannot build for beans lol
I recommend drylock instead of that white epoxy stuff.

Sweet! I’ll check it out
I really really want to do this, but the build and set up is so intensive, and just having the stock tank never looks good. The Glass style aquarium is not as beneficial overall but at lot less intensive
How much in total was it to build this?
@studiodeepdive6165
2 жыл бұрын
Hard to say because I had about half the wood already. Despite using plywood and pine, I wasn’t aiming for a budget build. The water proofing isn’t cheap and I did multiple layers. I’d guess around $500 from scratch without lighting or the filter
what did this build come out too

I’m honestly not sure, maybe $500-700 including the tub and everything but I didn’t price it out. Nowadays it would be a lot more because lumber is so crazy expensive!
Maybe sealant for the glass not wood.

No sir, I do not have one. I do a 20% water change a week and clean the filter media every 2-3 weeks depending on my availability. Mildred drags a lot of dirt and debris into the water 🙄
