How do these ponds do in the winter in north east?

@ReneesZooTube Год назад

Next time, put the bigger container down upside down and work to attach the smaller container on top of that, then flip it over. Much easier than trying to center the big container on top of the little container. I LOVE the idea of using a book light! I'm going to do that for my new Betta's aquarium! For siphoning mini ponds, you could use a powerhead with a sponge over the inflow to keep the fish from getting sucked up. A powerhead with tubing attached is much smaller than a pump and will move the water out much faster than a regular siphon. That's what I use for my patio container ponds for water changes. Just be sure to put a sponge over the intake as it will shred your fish if they get sucked in.

I really love the Creeping Jenny. So many ideas on how I can improve my ponds next summer. I'm sure those sponge mops work well, considering their popularity, but they are so ugly. I'm just going to move my water hyacinth from the adult ricefish pond to the baby ricefish pond.

@rexter512 Год назад

Don't know if this was suggested yet/if you tried this approach, but you can line the inner overhang lip (that makes it hard to clean out the bottom as you mentioned earlier in the video) with aluminum tape or other reflective material and thread a line of LEDs in that gap, ideally trying to face them downwards but the reflective material will make it more diffuse anyway. That way you can hide the LEDs a bit better, they might be better at penetrating to the bottom of the pot pond

@AQUAPROS Год назад

Thanks! Ya ill have to look into somethin like that, might work good 🫡

@Deathbyfartz 5 месяцев назад

i feel like the rim of that bucket is big enough to stick a led strip up underneath, essentially use it as a led channel, that way it would point down along side all the way around the bucket, and the strips would be protected from the weather.

@andrianahernandez113 6 месяцев назад

What about when it rains or when it’s too cold

@bikergod69 Год назад

Just built myself a new patio pond. I’m curious what you do with your floating plants and livestock on winter?

@AQUAPROS Год назад

You can move your floating plants inside, same with the fish if you really want to or think that a 5 gallon bucket would freeze, but rice fish can survive np with the top layer frozen 🫡

@vanissaberg5824 Год назад

I'd just drain it down a bit and move it indoors during the winter before it freezes and have a nice little indoor pond to enjoy inside while it's cold outside. Put a small light over it and an air stone and treat it just like an aquarium. 😊

@AQUAPROS Год назад

@@vanissaberg5824 totally a great option!

@bikergod69 Год назад

@@AQUAPROS the rice fish I knew would survive a Michigan winter, it’s the plants I was unsure about. Last year in my 300 gallon pond I just put a deicer in the pond and I had zero losses but that houses native pan fish species and a large mouth bass. The deicer I got from TSC for like 20-30 bucks and it worked fantastic in that one. But it’s also a stock tank and that deicer was intended for use in it and as I said, no plants.

@dreamforever3749 4 месяца назад

Question: In my aquarium I use soil, then cap it with sand. Is this something you can do in a container pond? Or will the sand be enough? I plan for 110 gallon container with rice fish. Great videos!!!! :)

@jaqhass 7 месяцев назад

The ir themometer mesures surface temperature which means you only get the correct number if ALL water ADN the surface have the same. If you point it at transparent plastic you might get the wrong number. A proper thermometer for water is pretty cheap.

@donmacgregor3222 8 месяцев назад

Great vid tx but our local aquarium shop says all fish tanks or ponds need a pump to oxygenate the water for the fish, why do you not use one here please?

@shanyshan603 6 месяцев назад

If you have enough plants and surface area you don’t necessarily need an air stone or filter. There are plenty of tanks/ponds with nothing that agitates the water … the oxygen all comes from the plants

@RYK882 Год назад

What do you recommend to use as mini pond as size and material?

@AQUAPROS Год назад

If your gonna add ricefish the size can be pretty small but I like to use planters that hold 5 to 15 gallons of water (thats a good range for me) you can do a lot with that.... Material isnt super important, most everything wont leach anything harmful. Resin is a good choice cause it light weight but fiberglass can also work. Regular ceramic ones are fine too, they are just really expensive

@pistachoo. Год назад

Is that pond container plastic? and is the rim hollow? Why not hide some LED strips in the rim facing down to light the water? Also, if it's wobbly, maybe fill the smaller pot with concrete for more weight and stability? and find a more sturdy way to attach the two together? I really like this setup.

@AQUAPROS Год назад

How are you controlling algae accumulation? I've created patio ponds twice for growing aquatic plants and both times they just became ridden with algae growth. What am I doing wrong?

@AQUAPROS Год назад

Try full shade, this one has been algae free for 2 weeks, but a lil algae is normal, if its gettin crazy then its prolly just too much direct sunlight 🤷‍♂️🫡

@calvinviana129 Год назад

Hmmm great tip! How often are you required to do a pond cleaning on a set up like yours? Would snails/ shrimp help keep the patio pond clean?

@AQUAPROS Год назад

@@calvinviana129 very little cleaning, unless there a big algae problem or something wird happens. OR if a bunch of plants decay and theres too much mulm at the bottom. I just treat em like a low maintinance aquarium
