martin hoyt an age old battle. Just got back from Japan. All their grow out “mud ponds” have lots of rock and gravel 🤔

I’d love to discuss/showcase the benefits.... And I will showcase them in upcoming Pond Professor Vlog’s!

Ed Beaulieu don’t need to convince me Ed Take a look at peter waddingtons channel and look in the comments section, his channel is waddypete the video in question is we should always have a choice , it’s quite shocking the comments

Norinickr Rostron Ck his Channel out! ru-vid.com/show-UC60vydWbUX8x9uemj8sL3Tw

Hahaha...... Thanks! I’m passionate about water and it’s importance in our daily lives!!!

@@GregWittstockThePondGuy Thanks...will subscribe...

He already did.

When I am able to get my dream started you guys will be my pond crew 😎🤙☀️

Chris Bentley That’s ironic because we don’t have a lot of rock easily accessible here but Arkansas is loaded!!!

Ed Beaulieu yeah😂

Even more ironic there’s a big rock and Little Rock in Southern California too they’re small towns in Cali terms

Crock rock Illinois. Little different

Yes, you can have a pond in cold weather. We have installers in Canada and the ponds do just fine. You can get an idea of costs by looking at the water features here: www.aquascapeconstruction.com/water-gardening-store

Thank you very much

Sinto Joseph- the pumps are very energy efficient and they will raise the cost of electricity, but not by much.

@@GregWittstockThePondGuy ok

No water change. Add some times in July & August. We are able to add 20,000 gal a day Pond is 1/2 acre in size

The large mouth bass, catfish & koi reproduce with the pumps running We have catfish up to 36”. Koi are even bigger.

Electrical costs vary depending on type/size of pump used, whether you have lights or other electronic devices such as an Automatic Dosing System, aerator, etc.

maz p The only pump that needs to operate continuously is approx. 750 Watts which runs the Wetland Filter, the other pumps are used periodically but do have a benefit for Increasing the Dissolved Oxygen and helping with debris removal. There are a lot of factors that go into determining the Pro’s vs. Con’s: The old pond was well into the eutrophication process which is not necessarily a bad thing and it’s a normal part of the lifespan of a pond, everything will eventually die including ponds..... The true benefit for the local wildlife(pollinators, insects, birds and amphibians) would be considered priceless because they perform a lot of ecosystem services for the surrounding community, pollination of crops, dragonflies, frogs, and bats eat mosquitoes and other disease causing flying insects, the high biological activity within the Wetland Filter sucks CO2 from the atmosphere through photosynthesis, etc...... If this system was not being used the alternative is chemical treatment to control weed growth(what’s the environmental cost of the chemicals including the Carbon footprint for packaging and transportation of the chemicals to the site and then what’s the impact on the animal community? It raises a great question and without a more detailed breakdown it’s difficult to say exactly but in my mind when I look at the facts we’re doing more good than harm.....

Like I said, just amazing! Thank you so much for the informed, honest answer. By far one of my favourite RU-vid channels. We definitely need such smart, knowledgeable people like you Ed! The work you’re doing is so important and beyond amazing!

maz p Thank you!!!

Yes. Some of the Koi & Catfish are 36”

We removed the organize material on the shelf around the edge from the past 60 years before starting the build.
