Hello again I have been working on this video along side several others for several weeks now. Many of my videos are shot over a long period of time and this was no exception. This is why you don't see lots of fish oriented videos.
The Details:
1. This project cost approximately $300. Most of the cost seemed to be the things around the pond and not the pond itself.
2. All the rock surrounding the pond and spillway is reused material from our previous landscaping.
3. As I mentioned in the video I added guppies to the pond to keep there for the rest of the summer. Just before fall I'll pull them out, keep some and give the others away.
4.I also added several clippings from plants I had to trim in my aquariums. I'm very curious to see how they do outdoors.
5. Almost all the water in the pond came from the torrential down pours of rain we have had this year making this a muddy messy project.
6. The pond container, water way, plants, topsoil, and edging material are from Home Depot.
7. The pond is around 35 gallons.

Well You Two started something. The rocks look fine and so do all the plants and dishes to make the w,falls. I am still looking for some but USA does not always ship to Australia or is not available till 2020! Mine need to be with brown rocks! I have two small ponds connected with a little stream after the top overflow but I lost some interest but now it got 35o it will be all different. I run it with UV light and filter pump. It works fine! Like the sound of water but do turn it off every evening.

If you had brought in more dirt for around the molded pond, you could have added the rocks and boulders and it would have looked more like you would have wanted, just FYI, otherwise it looks great! I would have made the flower bed around it larger to add more plantings too… We are going to do one also in our back yard by the patio this year.

This video was informative. I'm currently fixing a small 31 gallon pond at my parents place. The Pygmy water lily, soil and ferts are in its way. Just stocked some mosquitofish and today a dozen Golden Topminnows. I've been thinking about doing a diy pond filter using those square planters and ordering a simple pond pump from eBay. I'd just have to get The spillway and extra slate stone last. I really want to create a small waterfall effect because of the sound. I hope it all works out. I love your pond Pecktec!!!

@TemplarX2
@TemplarX2 7 лет назад
Need to be a bit bigger (twice bigger). You have to put plants in between the stones to further decorate it and makes it look natural. It can be turned into an aquaponics too with fish water irrigating a raised bed of plants. You can grow extremely valuable and decorative plants like tumeric. Great start though.

Great job, man. Some dirt backfill would have been great for that berm though. Also, try placing a small piece of PVC pipe, preferably black so you can't see it, on the bottom of the pool for a fish hide. Any problems with predators eating your fish?

No, but it helps. I get tons of algae and air in the water is best for any fish. I have two ponds and no waterfalls. I bought a very cheap "lily pad" that brings up water and makes a little trickle but it is solar and the more sun, the more algae it seems.
