    Hey Pond People! As you can see, we’re never short on testing new things and taking risks when it comes to building ponds. What did you think? Do you feel we made the right choices? And speaking of good decisions, remember to tune in next week to see us build a fire and water fountain display… inside of our retail store! Will everything go according to plan? Or will it be the worst decision I have ever made?! Stay tuned!!

      I am building a similar wetland filter: long rectangular shape, sandbags at the bottom, aquablox, gravel on the top, but it has concrete walls. I hope it will also clean my pond. It is nice to see a this big company without a single person in a suit 🙂

    • @shaharben

      That is great. A slight improvment of the test would be to build two similar ponds one with Brian's Bio Balls and one with the traditional rock and gravel, and compare the two. Maybe take the water from a bigger tank and spread it in the two testing ponds for similar starting point.

      is aquascape in need of a remote VA or remote office staff? I'd love to work for aquascape! I have ponds & keep all sorts of fish from goldfish, koi, & asian arowana here in the Philippines!

    It would be really cool if you guys could build a working wetland filter out of acrylic and have it on display in the front lobby, use it as an visual educational tool for people who come in

    I'm sure you;ve thought of this but if the bioballs work I suppose you could make bio cubes or cylinders to get competitive with rocks in price but be a produce sellable by aquascapes.

    Hey guys, I have a question about something I spotted at the very end of this. The faux stump behind Brian in the feature that Chris built has a hole cut into it. It looks like that one is designed for covering propane tanks for your fire/water features? I have had an issue with mine (which does not have that opening) causing my pump receivers to overheat & shut down. It only happens when it gets to be >90°F outside, which is only 2-3 times per summer. I've tried cutting air slots in it, but the bigger you go with the cuts, the more it stands out. Thoughts?
    PS, Brian's Bioballs for the win! 🤣

    • @TEAMAquascape
      @TEAMAquascape  Рік тому +2

      The faux stump covers come with holes in them for covering propane tanks, and without for covering cords, etc. Try to make sure your smart receiver, if possible, is in the shade and not direct sunlight, even when covered with a faux stump.

  • @PremierAquarium
    @PremierAquarium Рік тому

    Any concern with those bags of sand becoming a very large anaerobic zone with to potential to release harmful gases? How will the water be mechanically filtered or is the hope that the suspended particulates will just settle out in the pool. I really appreciate the experimentation and your willingness to share your results.

    • @TEAMAquascape
      @TEAMAquascape  Рік тому

      We left the sand in the bags so no worries there. It’s indoors so no real need for a mechanical skimmer. Thanks

    Howdy guys, this is a very interesting idea, building a pond inside a building, above ground. have you done very many above ground ponds? I watched a UA-cam video of a homestead/farm, with animals who had a small pond built in their backyard for his son's turtle and fish collection. Was it your company that made their pond? If your company is the one, you did a beautiful job on it. If I ever own a home again in the future, I might just look your company up. I have Redeared sliders

    Sorry, but I had to only listen to this and not watch it, the editing with all the small jerky cuts and clips really messed up my eyes and head! But the concept of a pool as a giant filter is awesome, and those pools are cheap!
