Best use of diesel and steel: Creating long lasting structures that provide resilient ecoservices! 👍

Plow your snow into the pond for extra water. Planting shade trees around it will help keep it cooler and from evaporating.

@kerricolwell5080 10 месяцев назад

We have a large small pond and wish we could have went bigger. The life it brings to our yard all year round is worth it!

@raymondheckard234 10 месяцев назад

Also will the pond being 30ft deep, you can use it for geothermal heating the house and green houses in the winter

@dkiresearch4423 10 месяцев назад

great video. thinking about doing the same on a 20 acre slough, that was a decent lake 50 years ago. We're talking Billy Gerhart sized swamp extractors ;) ( oak island) - so much that can be done with some creativity.

Solitude; lovely lake for night time bat listening kit. While they skim the water for moths & what not. Hope you add some dead trees in a quite spot for bugs & insects to scurry about & help feed the fishes.

@sjrmike 10 месяцев назад

if the rainbows don’t do well, try using brown trout because they can handle warmer water easier from what i understand.

@dickdavidson3616 10 месяцев назад

True, but natural brown trout might be slower growing. At that depth the summer water temperature should remain chilly hopefully.

Great build even get a super ice rink as well. You’re a trailblazer! Love your holistic microclimate and ecosystem approach. Can’t wait to see your livestock operation begin.

@Swampwild1 10 месяцев назад

Great work. Exactly right on everything you’ve saying. Your experience skills were really valuable! The only thing I would say is that old cycles won’t mean much with climate change, but your doing the best possible thing either way. Good thing you don’t need a 10 year long impact study first!

@ArkopiaYouTube 10 месяцев назад

Before modern ag and coastal cities, the land held back a lot more water. I can see how that change could change things for the worse. Ironically California (biggest government bureaucracy) has the most uncontrolled wildfires and drought. Go figure. 😂

@Swampwild1 9 месяцев назад

@@ArkopiaRU-vid The history of how California agriculture was created and how the native population was treated is fascinating. Water needs to be allowed to follow it’s old flow patterns as much as possible. Original inhabitants knew that floods were a time of abundance that recharged groundwater. The overflows efficiently calmed the water energy. Greed, arrogance and ignorance of our early 20th century settlers led to all this. We have to go back to aboriginal ways.

@ArkopiaYouTube 9 месяцев назад

@@Swampwild1 Not much water is allowed to be held back. Storm drains to the ocean also carrying the topsoil seems smart🤪

@ChristianBaril 10 месяцев назад

Not sure if you are gona need it but ive seen lots of artificial ponds/lakes with an areator to help prevent the formation of algae. Tho im sure you're already thought about it! It helps also oxygenate the water for the fish/wildlife.

@lkhfun6575 10 месяцев назад

Lakes have a water source like a river, and I believe an outlet of water as well. Great work!

@tylerk.7947 9 месяцев назад

Don’t skimp onthe planting! You have an amazing opportunity to create something truly amazing with the right plant selection and design. In 10,20,30 years from now you’ll thank yourself. Just my two cents, great job by the way

Yabut… the British refer to going across the Atlantic Ocean, as “going across the pond”. I’m still confused, but at least I know my bathtub is just a bathtub… unless it’s clear like a sea, or a swamp, after I get out. Sheesh, water is difficult. 😮

@ArkopiaYouTube 10 месяцев назад

😂

@ws4860 10 месяцев назад

We use the same saying in Germany. Going acoss the Atlantic Ocean is called "going across the big pond" The use as a synonym for the Atlantic Ocean is best known, but in Northern Germany the expression 'big pond' is used for 16 other bodies of water. Funny.

@isaacchristensen659 5 месяцев назад

Would you consider weighing down a couple of logs/debris at the bottom of the pond for the future aquatic wildlife that’ll live in there?

@ArkopiaYouTube 5 месяцев назад

Oh for sure I will be putting structure down there. ✌️

@johnskillen6208 10 месяцев назад

a year ago i opened our dug out again had a dozer clean it. kept sluffing back in . used old hoe went 15 feet deep i burmed it up all around and so far not filling back up. nest summer want to make it a lot bigger. we will be planting trees all around . lots of wildlife use the water. we add collidal silver water to keep the water clean

@ArkopiaYouTube 10 месяцев назад

This clay sure doesn’t sluff back in. Just gets carved out streams a little by heavy runoff. Colloidal Silver fixes all. 👍

@peterharvey7844 10 месяцев назад

Um, where is you water table? Are you going against any municipal regulations? Are you concerned about contamination of surface water to groundwater? Excellent build By the way 😊

@ArkopiaYouTube 10 месяцев назад

Water table is higher than any farm dugout around here. Not concerning at all. ✌️

@ws4860 10 месяцев назад

My father was an amateur fisherman and already I learned as a child that trout need running water. Unlike carp. They love standing water. I've never liked carp because they always taste musty. Now I'm confused. Do trout survive in stagnant water? What about pangasius, zander, Zärte (lat. Vimba vimba) or various types of crab? They should also be able to be maintained.

@ArkopiaYouTube 10 месяцев назад

Rainbow trout is the go-to extreme cold weather pond fish around here. I haven’t heard of anyone where I live doing anything else. Sounds like a challenge for me. 😂

Why don't you have any plants? It will help with infiltration, water quality, aquatic life, insects to help feed the fish, etc. Make some riparian habitat!
