Oh wow, what a transformation! Great work. This looks so much better and nothing like the first pond. You are the man when it comes to ponds.

I had Faith in you from the first time I heard you speak~~ I was impressed with your knowledge and also how you did not bad mouth the other pool installer. You just explained the faults that any laymen could understand. Great Install~~ "Dig Deep"~~& Fish on~~

He only paid for the pond, she gets to enjoy it more often. You saw how quickly she named the fish before being taken out of the bag; didn't even consider asking the husband for suggestions?

@captainrichman
@captainrichman 6 лет назад
to do it right, it's more like 6-9k for a smallish 1000 gallon pond by a genuine expert. The materials and rock alone will run about 2k (NJ prices, we have to import our rock from out of state. If you can get local rock on your own the materials are closer to 1k). Then factor in roughly 25-35 hours for the labor, and that's with experienced & knowledgeable pros using the proper tools.

Love love love the way you do your wateralls. The way it's not a single sheet falling, it's several sheets falling at different angles and sometimes hitting other levels on the way down. I know that's a weird observation, but I've seen some ponds where the waterfall looks soooo fake, and it really jars you out of the moment, even if the rest of the pond looks good. Same with those ugly plastic monstrosities (like the frog in this one) meant to disguise certain features...ugh. Also, I honestly never realized why you leveled all your ponds and put shelves in. I thought it was just a trademark of yours. When I saw how unstable the rocks were in the old pond, I had a eureka moment. Love your videos, thanks so much for the upload and especially the education!

I must say, you know what you're doing. I built a pond 2 years ago and used a 125 gal. pond shell and I must say that it's too small and rocks keep falling into it. Thanks for showing me what I need to do--I'm gonna dig a deeper hole and build a shelf around the edge like you do! Great video, dude!

Yep, our UK Grey Herons can reach down 4 feet, so a 6 feet deep pond is needed. But then the Heron will just wait at the edge totally motionless until one stupid koi swims up close enough.

Awesome series, an instant favorite! I hope we have more in the future... It would have been awesome to see just a minute or two of footage during the construction, but I'm assuming limited time frames probably didn't allow for the appropriate setup for lighting and such. Thanks for taking the time to do these videos!

Wow that really is a nice pond. The kind of pond that makes a garden. Once the plants grow a bit as well it should be even better. Well done. If I was going to add my 2 cents it would be to make your pond critter friendly. More nooks and crannies for small invertebrates. That is just my personal choice though since I like wildlife.
