We are always testing new things, pushing our ponds to be better and BEST... unfortunately our attempt at giving our signature pond a sand beach didn't go so well. Luckily, Brian has a good idea of what we need to try next!

We used washed concrete sand in our pond. Definitely a bit more coarse. It doesn't move much at all, and still nice to walk barefoot on. Not muddy at all.

@TahSam100 Год назад

That's such a nice format of a vlog! I was more than skeptical at first but in fact it's really interesting! I had no idea Brian was doing the drawings by hand... I always thought he was using a computer program :D For your sand, maybe grains a bit bigger would do the trick?

@trikerflash Год назад

I was a bricklayer in the Chicago area, and we used Illinois brick a lot. They're an excellent company to work with. The silica sand you got looks like what we used to make white mortar, I feel it will be too fine for your purpose, but I'll wait to see how it works for you. My brother started the Airhart Construction company based in West Chicago. I hope some of his customers will become your customers, too.

I'm with you on the silica sand I think it's just too fine I think the crushed gravel that's turned into sand would work better it's heavier and would stay in place

@danielm6870 Год назад

I've already done a white sand bottom pond. Converted from gravel and the fish colors POP.

@susiejones3634 Год назад

Loved watching Brian do a bit of colouring in! 🙂

@ThePondAdvisor Год назад

Great video, the sand could be used in part of the retail system

@karenwaters7200 Год назад

Can you use that sand in the retail fish area?

@brockn7878 Год назад

Tankies will adore that clean sand.

@chasmanmugsy Год назад

Lots to take in on this one! Awesome!!!

@petersvan7880 Год назад

Awesome, inspiring video. The pond design looks great with all its curves and hidden pathways. Thank you Brian for showing!

@pux0rb Год назад

Very excited to see progress on the Spain project!

Remember you can tune into Team Aquascape on FB. We went LIVE from there yesterday!

@jb-2714 Год назад

Great video. A lot going on. Super cool. You had me in suspense with the sand. What about play ground sand. Pretty cool Greg pays you to color. Lol. Great job on that sale.

@jmuench420 Год назад

Why not Lake Michigan sand?

@timmorel79 Год назад

Sargent sand pit (no granite in mix )Ludington Mi.

@iam_odyssey8924 Год назад

you need coarser, larger grains of sand with more weight if you want it to have a chance of working.

@MrXbloodline Год назад

My pond has a sand beach and bottom just use real sand. My pool also has sand bottom with normal pool filters. Both crystal clear. Would also suggest pre cleaning sand

@Christian-rn9le Год назад

You can use motion sensors like the ones used for flood lights in front of the tanks on the floor tied to the outlets for the aerators so they turn off as people walk in front of them.

@oreospapa 8 месяцев назад

So where did you put the sugar sand and how did it go?

@rzfbgjy Год назад

Ever try pool filter sand?

@dhammes9616 Год назад

I like the sand who wouldn’t like beautiful white sand that you can put your toes in use it😀

@Tony-InLosAngeles Год назад

I just had a feeling you were going to say silica sand

@sbkpeace.24 Год назад

If Ive watched all of ed's videos am I now a C.A.C ? 😆🤷‍♂️

@artistic_spaz3724 Год назад

Have you reached out to a local aquarium in regards to sand? I know in my saltwater aquarium at home I had different choices of sand depending on flow, which sounds like the same situation you are in. It's white and beautiful as well and is what is on those beached that you talked about.....just a suggestion

@TheBarefootedGardener Год назад

What if you scrape back some quantity of the gross sand, and use the white sand on top because it’ll probably stick to that nasty sand? It probably will even change the texture of the gross sand as they mix a little over time.

@freshimpactco.8698 Год назад

I can't believe you used the wrong sand in the pond haha 😆😅 it is one mucky mess if you use the wrong type.

@maximumeffort3225 Год назад

You could always put the sand into the retail sales tubs?

@philipbutler6608 Год назад

I contacted several “Aquascape” companies in Dallas/Fort Worth none replied.

@andrewjohnson6364 Год назад

Pool filter sand seems like what your looking for.

@silicondave2797 Год назад

Why not rent out equipment to the customers so they can clean the pond themselves? Different levels and sizes of rentable equipment. Hand truck unit all the way up to a trailer unit. Make a repeatable style plan that the other CAC's can offer around the world. Some people just wanna do a quick scrub and clean before Grandma visits. They just do not have the proper tools to make it easy. Could even offer some of them for sale as an alternative to the fancy pond vacuums out on the market. Please Include me on this! I love R&D!

Note to self: If you call Team Aquascape to help you build your pond, DO NOT tell them your full budget amount. Always say your budget is $20-$40k lower than what you actually are willing to spend.

@Pondscapes Год назад

What type of sand does genesis ecosystems use?

@TEAMAquascape Год назад

Brazilian. Bradley have any contacts?!

@timmorel79 Год назад

sillica dust ( H*ll NO ) GM&FORD foundry casting sand; Kasson Sand & Gravel Mich.

@JokerrJKR Год назад

make a salt water lagoon with that sand

@briancooke2435 Год назад

Wouldn't ground gravel that's turned into Sand work better and it wouldn't get sucked into the filter it wouldn't get slimy and most definitely would keep its shape and it's cheaper then if you would have to import sand from another country
