Thank you for these suggestions… your video was timely as I have a small leak in my pondless waterfall….

Awesome video, interesting to see how you built some parts of this pond, and nice that they now have those synthetic boards for decking, don’t think they had this back in the 90’s, when I built my patio deck next to our small pond, not over my small liner pond back in San Antonio, Texas, it was basically a liner put in a 10 X 14 foot hole my son and I dug out, and placed the liner in, but what was cool was I found some large half moon stones to line the outside of it over the liner edge, but the good part was it actually helped us to sale our home and we moved to Georgia, and found out by the neighbors next to this house when visiting they told us that the buyers through everything in the hole and buried it , maybe they could not maintain it, that was a very sad moment for us, and such a waste 😱😱

Thank you!

Thank you!

Thank you so much for sharing your expertise with us.

Thank you Chris. Was pleasantly enjoyed to wake up and see you covered this topic. Your advice helped a lot for my project next spring Thanks again.

I appreciate you soooo much!

great info! You think of everything!!!

This is exactly the video I needed!!!

I am a 45 year old woman building a 4000 gallon pond by myself. It’s been a year. Still not finished we get heavy rain in Georgia and your videos have been a game changer for me. Thank you friend!

Thank you for the great video, Chris! Is the 4” bottom drain you mentioned in the video pvc or abs? I just bought 2 after watching your video and want to use the correct cement for them. Thanks again!

Covered a lot of great points no one mentions in these diy vids- especially the check valve and back flush valves. Thx for the tips!

Great Information on quarantining. I have a 110gal quarantine tank with lots of aeration, basic filter, heater and it’s netted over the top. Never thought I would need one, until I did. It wasn’t expensive if you compare the cost of just one koi, let alone a whole pond of koi. Recently bought a couple new koi and they went straight into the quarantine tank. Very glad I have it because one of the koi became sick after just 3 days. Now I’m only treating the quarantine tank instead of my whole pond. Just goes to shows you never know and you can never be too cautious.

Are you familiar with a company named and product called Liquid Rubber? It sells for 99.00 a gallon. I'm not sure of the quality.

I use the cheat code for mulch get the rubber mulch stays black, brown, red, blue or what ever color you get for 10 years and can put plants in the ground . Been using it for years and it works. Oh if you get the nugget form not the shredded you never have to worry about the rain washing it away. Always looks nice plants do just fine in it.

Is gravel in a pond a form of bacterial filter?

Does foaming mean a lack of beneficial bacteria?

So benefit is aggressive growth ? Will the roots grow and clean nutrients?

Do they filter or clean the ponds of algae?

Just planted this in a new aquarium with about 6 other types of plants and somehow its the only plant turning yellow/brown. I hope it bounces back as i thought it would be the ine to do better than all the others.

Excellent tutorial!

what does rinse do?

Do you have any videos of setting up a ground filtration with out gravel? I’m trying to learn everything I can about building a pond it’s my project next year

Great video thanks allot

Really helpful video. I particularly enjoyed the tip about pushing a piece of liner through the hole to have a dry piece in behind. That’s simple but clever!

Thank you for the information. I'm late for getting it going but gonna give it a try. My biggest problem is tall pondweeds coming to the surface despite three gallons of Aqua Shade every year. 😥

For anyone wondering, this works really well.

I bought a uv light for my 1000 gallon pond and it didn’t a dang thing to clean the green pea soup water. I want to try one again but I’m kind of hesitant to go through it again.

My coworker has a blue duck 😂

Thank you for this info! I’m a big fan of the plants with the nickname “money plant”, which surprisingly… is a lot!! I only have two left for my collection, this one and Lunaria, the latter which I am picking up seeds for this weekend. This one will have to wait… I want to make a self contained pond for it, that will probably be a project for when I actually have a house. I’ve taken over the apartment as it is with plants LOL. But I love learning ahead of time!

Does it need soil to grow or can it survive just planted directly in gravel on the margins of the pond?

perhaps more importantly that spray foam deteriorates and pollutes the environment...PLEASE CHECK OUT INFORMATION ON PLASTIC IN OUR BODIES AND IN OUR FOODS....thank you

Lovely video. Good to know about the prolific nature of the water hyacinth. I was considering taking the extraneous bits and cooking them. Looks like that's what I'll have to do...if I can buy them in my state, that is.

I really like how you speak in simple terms so everyone can understand. And showing examples of the items you’re talking about is extremely helpful. Great information. Thank you

Cement, sand and gravel = concrete Cement and sand = mortar

How much cure time for concrete in a water feature? Not concerned about strength in this particular application . . . more, just concerned about surface . . . i.e. don't want concrete to dissolve away by exposure to water too soon.

Ok

Very pretty Sounds like white water rapids that water is coming off there fast-

i just put in new water in pond build and can see little worms whats going on.

How far does a gallon go? I'm doing an 750ish gallon pond 4x8 inside pond diameter roughly little over 3 feet deep. How much would I need? Would a 45mil EPDM liner be a better option?

I would like to see the plumbing I haven't been able to find that video. Sorry, to bug I just can't find it. Do you bury the filter tank? Probably not if there are valves.

Amazing in-depth explanation! Thanks

Great advice as always

In USA PERHAPS YES BUT FISH NEED 6 FOOT DEEP HERE IN EUROPE

Amazing video sir! It took me awhile to find you but glad I did. I am new to pond building and have some yard drainage issues to address as well but this will work perfect for what I need while I have the pond drained. Thank you soooo much.

DEEPER THE WATER THE MORE STABLE EVERYTHING STAYS. LESS ALGAE AS WATER STAYS COOLER IN HOT SUMMER.

I got a light net, heron went straight through it

Amazing video a lot of info thank you , is there a way I can grab some papyrus plant seeds from you if possible ?

Great information, as usual😊 thank you

I have had my my 160 gallon garden fountain for over 13 years and have used a UV filter, all this time, and am just seeing string algae for the first time , I spent the day today and removed it from my 160 gallon pond liner using a long thin putty knife , that has fish in it , and looks good now, should I start adding salt and what kind ? I found your barley extract on Amazon and thinking of using that versus the barley straw bales , please advise me at this point, thanks
