How To Build A Koi Pond - Final 

It's so typical how addicting ponds and fish are. Everyone starts small and goes bigger bigger bigger. Beautiful work by builder

Eric, you have completely outdone yourself, not only regarding this pond, but regarding this video series as well. This has been by far the most enjoyable, most informative, and most empowering series on pond design and construction. You know it's a good series when you watch the final installment and your first thought is to immediately go back and watch the entire series over again. Well done! Kudos to you and your whole team. And a big thank you to Rosemary for sharing this adventure with all of us.

I'm so glad she loves her fish and treats them well. My beloved goldfish are the reason I've gotten hooked on ponds.

Proof positive that good contractors are indeed artists! Beautiful work man, thanks for all the hard work producing the video series!!

Wow! I’ve just spent my entire Sunday watching every single episode, yes...56 episodes; of this koi pond installation, and I’m flabbergasted. What a fantastic pond, beautiful landscaping, tranquil sounds of rushing water and very pleasing to the eyes. You should be very proud of this project. Eric....you’re awesome!

It's time for a 5 year "REVISIT"!!! Excellent Job @ThePonDigger Eric & Crew!! So glad that Rosemary was willing to let you capture every step and share this experience with hundreds of thousands of other interested people. The only thing missing was a final slow and detailed look at everything...the skimmer, landscaping & plant selection, etc. Everyone wants to see how this pond has grown & "aged" since 2015, so PLEEEEASE revise Rosemary and her beautiful pond for a short interview, recap, and a good "pond only" 5 min view of the koi, landscape, & pond. Not to mention we all want to see how well the equipment has held up after 5 years +.

I absolutely loved this series I can't believe I watched every minute of each one! now time to re-watch before I start.

What a terrific resource you have been, Eric. I am nearly finished with the pond I promised my wife for mother's day. I could never have done it without the knowledge and experience you shared in this series. I did buy some Helix parts you recommended. They are top quality. I am in your debt for making this resource available to me and those whom I've sent to view this series. Thank you, thank you!

Lol after watching the entire series, which were amazing and perfectly informative, you had me thinking I was watching a talk show 😂👍🏻

It's been a nice build. My first pond was a 55 gallon plastic pond. My second, same location, is 105 gallon. However, I want to go bigger. Planning on cement lining and shaping a 3x larger pond. I have a few Koi and some Gold fish. They've gotten as big as they're going to get in that small pond. What I wanted to know more about was filtration. You addressed that nicely. Thank you.

This is an awesome pond. Looks like it has always been there. Fantastic pond and amazing tutorial which is invaluable.

I am going to miss this now! Have been enjoying it all so much!! You guys are awesome. The attention to detail is out of this world. Wish I could have a pond like that! Thanks for sharing and for all the extra tips!

In the last two days I have watched all 56 videos, I have to say it is AMAZING

I just started watching your videos and tutorials a year ago Eric. You are amazing and this spring I'm upgrading my 1,000 gallon pond to 10,000 gallons, I can't wait and I owe it all to you man! Thanks again for all of you dedication and inspiration Eric!

Thank you!! After 30 years of keeping ponds (first was when my family was stationed in the UK) and collecting all the 'bits and pieces' over the past two years, next year we'll be starting the pond of our dreams here in MI. Eric, without question this is by far the best tutorial I've come across, that with your added professional insight has given us the inspiration and fueled our enthusiasm for the upcoming project. My compliments sir.

i watched the entire series. fantastic finish. i want a koi pond in my backyard!

Amazing pond builder. very thorough in knowledge, wisdom, creations, plumming, filtration, detail to perfect ponds, etc. i have ben watching this for a year now !!! EXCELLINT !!!!

By far the best series of videos of YT. A superb conclusion.

Thank you Eric and Rosemary for these great videos. They are not only entertaining and fantastic to watch, they are also very relaxing. I'm convinced that having a pond like this in your yard will improve your overall health by helping with stress from our modern lives. Just planning my pond now and hoping to start digging in the next few months! :)

She needs more acreage .I love how you can walk up behind it and you are able to look down on the pond from above it .I think you need more likes than just one per person .Congrats on another beautiful build

This is gorgeous! Almost as nice looking as Rosemary herself. We'll be looking forward to the expansion work. :)

Each time I see one of your videos I see a new element I want to add during my construction. Thank Eric for the video.

Dude!! That pond is amazing. I love the landscape around it. What a treat it must be to have such a beauty in your yard. I could see a few hundred Africans in that bad boy.. Lol Thank you, Thank you for this tutorial. One of the nicest ponds on RU-vid!!

Big claps for all of you!!!! This has been an epic ride and it looks fantastic!!! Thank you so very much for sharing this journey.

just wow, watched the entire series and blown away. that lady is a Gal I need to meet a lady of a true koi pond lover that loves other pond lover

Gorgeous way, gorgeous end result. Astonishing. Best series ever done.

I watched all fifty five and what a great set they are! I want a pond now!! Top job and that Koi pond is beautiful

Thanks for this! Lol I watched you glue every joint and wrestle every rock until the end. You've inspired me. I start digging tomorrow!

The best type of client, always wants to upgrade and has plenty of money to blow. But Amazing work. Not surprised she kept coming back to you

Wonderful work!!! Similarly, I started with a small 100 gal box store liner pond and now I have a 3000 gal pond.

FINALLY I HAD REACH THE "END"😊 You guys did such an amazing job! I've watched this series form start to finish. Exellent team and art work! you guys are incredible! GOD BLESS YOU ALWAYS GUYS! KEEP IT UP😊😊

I just finished watching the entire series and i learned a lot. thank you so much for sharing.

Awesome build! The pond project was a long time coming and it turned out amazingly well! I was particularly blown away by the contrast of the fish against the water, shows how depth can really play a part and having your fish's colors really pop. I also liked how the waterfall turned out. The multiple steps and gentle flow is just right. Great work Eric!

I absolutely loved the complete videos of pond building. Step by step instructions were extremely helpful. I learned a lot and am ready to build my pond. KUDOS!!

WOW, Great Job on this pond. Thankfully, I saw your video as i was starting my pond about 10 month's ago. I got a lot of pond equipment and fish from a friend and followed along with your video's. Eric, my wife is totally impressed and so am i. I could not get the five foot depth (sandy Florida) but managed to get four feet in the deep end. The videos are awesome, you are obviously passionate about your work, and it comes through in the videos. Thanks again

Thank you very much. This is by far the best tutorial ever. It is very detail and it talks about all points and issues that one may come across with. Thank you very much!!!

A very detail of waterfall pond. Thanks so much for these series videos. It help me so much for my diy koi pond.

Wow amazing pond. A feature that is not just a pond but also a major feature that adds value to the property. A pond like this would cost a fair amount of cash but it is important to look at it in terms of an investment, like an extension. It hopefully adds value and is something you can enjoy.

Fantastic - Hands down the best video tutorial on pond building I have ever seen! Your attention to detail and plain talk explanation are awesome. Thank you very much for taking the time and making the effort to do this.

Eric, well done! I really enjoyed the journey I took with Rosemary and you. I also enjoyed your series on the patio bog pond and frog pond. Thank you for being so detail-oriented. That is usually the information that gets left out. Great job and keep up the amazing work.

Thanks for all the detailed information in this series. That waterfall is amazing!

what a journey! thanx so much! cant wait for the next series.

Perfectly done Eric. Great Job, i have enjoyed watching the entire 56 episodes. More power to Pond Digger!

Hello, this is an amazing pond - have much fun with the koi! Thanks for sharing, Roland

FINALLY! It took me quite a few hours to watch all the videos, I just wished there was more footage of the finished pond :)

oh no puppy stole the scene first billie jean and now a dog .It looks fantastic and gotta love that deck .What I don't like is when someone puts there pond so far from the house that you have to go to the pond to enjoy it .But this is so fantastic .Rose Mary is great and she wants bigger LOL. And now the kitty joins in the mix

this is how a koi pond should look like , black bottom , good job

A jack-of-all-trades is a master of none but still better than a master of one. How this applies to you and your crew? You're artists!

This is the 2nd series I watched from your channel. This one is my favorite, gosh all 55 part in one night, just before I go to bed. Now Ill be dreaming pond. Give us an update soon whenever you guys are doing the expansion already. Gosh she might want an ocean size one, hahaha!

Amazing and your attention to detail really paid off in the end! Excellent work Beautiful

Excellent step-by-step tutorials on this build!

Breathtaking. Looks like a slice of heaven.

Nice Rosemary! Great pond.

Watched from beginning to end and I must say that was excruciatingly thorough. Beautiful pond and I love the depth. Unfortunately alot of people can't build a pond this deep due to soil conditions, water table, and municipal ordinances. Thanks for taking the time to film all this. Btw: That is the crappiest soil I've ever seen.

Top series mate, thoroughly enjoyed it. Great to see some top notch professionals out there like yourself that are prepared to take the time to produce informative youtube series like these. Thanks again and cheers.

today i'm gonna start building a pond in my back yard ...i'm working on it alone so i don't know how much time it will take but i wish it will turn out like i want at the end ......thanks a lot u gave me a lot of informations ...wish me luck :)

Well done on a fantastic build, Looks amazing.

just watched the whole series , brilliant inspiration for building a pond.Really professional ,great work.

Thanks for sharing those videos. It's been an awesome journey and I got a lot of inspiration. We just starting the new pond build. And I will make it with bottom drain, thanks to you. We just got the filter system home. So next step is to start digging. Sadly there's no way to get a machine digger in our backyard. So everything must be hand dig. 30.000 liters. Better start hehe.

Nice videos. I watched everyone. I'm inspired. Thanks for all the hard work in sharing "how too".

I was fortunate enough to purchase a home with a large koi pond built as you have described. It was nearly maintenance free. My biggest problems were removing bass and sunfish that somehow found their way in and giving away excess koi to friends because the pond would become overpopulated.

Eric thank you so much for the great work you have done in putting together this series on how to build a koi pond, absolutely brilliant. I am spending a lot of time at home in isolation because of the Corvirus19 and I've always wanted a pond and I thought what the hell this is as good a time as any. I thought I knew what to do but decided to check out RU-vid for ideas on design and the engineering of the plumbing in different elements needed to have a successful outcome. I was absolutely naive in my first approach to building a pond. I am so glad that I came across your instructional videos. Because of your excellent videos and their quality and your incredible Talent in front of the camera to give instruction on building ponds and sharing your experiences I contacted your office and had the pleasure of speaking with your wife and have placed an order for my first system from your company. I'm very excited to receive my shipment and finish my small pond 8 by 11 feet and 40 in deep with a nice waterfall. Thank you again, you are a master and an artist, I appreciate your focus on detail and your quest for excellence and not cutting any corners; absolutely inspirational, you're a gift.

I live in Auz and just want to say its a pleasure watching your videos and really informative. Love your work :-) you and your team are amazing and you make it look easy but boy I can appreciate its not always. I'm struggling to do my little area. At the moment i'm actually doing a stream/waterfall to inground IBC for my turtle and I'm having trouble getting my head around the construction. Your videos have given me some ideas though so hopefully I can get the result I am aiming for :-) Thank you for taking the time to share

I was wondering what plants can I add to my koi pond I had a waterlilies but the koi eat them all I love your videos clips I've learned alot keep up the great work thanks and I'm in the UK

Very beautiful pond.

An extension ... ALL READY !! She's Only just built that one; or you have Eric, great job with that btw I'm always inspired by you Eric, come and build a pond for me !!!! Well ... My second one ;)

I binge watched all 56 parts....and this was awesome....I grew up in foster care...and my foster mother had a very small koi pond and I've... always wanted one....I had such fond memories of that pond ...and you work with such acquired skill and care....and take so much pride in your work....I'm from California and now live in Texas and was wondering how I could contact your company to draw me up some design plans...again your work was awe inspiring

I'm here a yr later and watch the whole series again. I can't wait do make one myself on a plot of land I own. And send you the updates on snap chat homie. Thanks again.

Well done Eric.......great job and fantastic video!!.....did similar pond myself with some helpful tips from you last year.from Melbourne Australia.

Very nice ,quality work!

Awesome job man !!

Wow Eric I sure hope I can do this. Just hope it looks half as good 🤔🤔🤔🤔

That seemed like a sudden ending. I was thinking there was still a few more episodes to come before the final one. Anyway that pond looks sensational. Thanks for sharing all your hard work with us.

A small 1ft deep area to one side might be nice for the fish to swim close while being able to sit and put your feet in the water. The current setup of high rocks seems tough to reach down to the water.
