Great Job! Like the rocks and the size. I needed to see this, im wanting to this size in my front yard to see and hear. And you gave great information. Thanks!!
+Jack Costello Well did you buy the house??? if so we are ready to see your pond. This post was from 7 months ago today 16 May 2016... Let us See... Let us See... lol... JK i am just trolling comments. I hope your doing well.
Well You Two started something. The rocks look fine and so do all the plants and dishes to make the w,falls. I am still looking for some but USA does not always ship to Australia or is not available till 2020! Mine need to be with brown rocks! I have two small ponds connected with a little stream after the top overflow but I lost some interest but now it got 35o it will be all different. I run it with UV light and filter pump. It works fine! Like the sound of water but do turn it off every evening.
This video was informative. I'm currently fixing a small 31 gallon pond at my parents place. The Pygmy water lily, soil and ferts are in its way. Just stocked some mosquitofish and today a dozen Golden Topminnows. I've been thinking about doing a diy pond filter using those square planters and ordering a simple pond pump from eBay. I'd just have to get The spillway and extra slate stone last. I really want to create a small waterfall effect because of the sound. I hope it all works out. I love your pond Pecktec!!!
If you had brought in more dirt for around the molded pond, you could have added the rocks and boulders and it would have looked more like you would have wanted, just FYI, otherwise it looks great! I would have made the flower bed around it larger to add more plantings too… We are going to do one also in our back yard by the patio this year.
Hi, how do you deal with the pond in the winter? Ours looks fine all the summer. In the winter, since we employ the water, the pond popped out above the ground… a headache for us now… since we have to resettle the pond and reeven it… trying to learn from you to see what we shall do for the doing the things right for the second time…thank you ahead. :)
I like that!! Is exactly what I was looking for. I have the plastic pond exact same as well and the spillway water fall. What kind of water pump you used? Please 🙏let me know and can start this project. Thank you and God bless you🙏
I’ve actually replaced it a few times. One this small doesn’t need a lot. Unfortunately it was so long ago I don’t remember the name of it. Get the second cheapest one at Home Depot.
Very well done! I like it! Very good hardware and appliances you have. It is addictive an hoppy and You Two can be very proud. Where can you get some of these items. I have great interest in your pond enclosure and w,fall and spillway but need to spend time to all enjoy it. I have too much already but than there is always better and that is You! Look for more 2nd eds.
Nice pond there, I want to build similar little bigger, would it be okay a pump with 28m3/h with power from 0,37 kW to 4,4 kW to have flow of water like you? how many gallons per hour is your pump?
Great job, man. Some dirt backfill would have been great for that berm though. Also, try placing a small piece of PVC pipe, preferably black so you can't see it, on the bottom of the pool for a fish hide. Any problems with predators eating your fish?
No, but it helps. I get tons of algae and air in the water is best for any fish. I have two ponds and no waterfalls. I bought a very cheap "lily pad" that brings up water and makes a little trickle but it is solar and the more sun, the more algae it seems.
Need to be a bit bigger (twice bigger). You have to put plants in between the stones to further decorate it and makes it look natural. It can be turned into an aquaponics too with fish water irrigating a raised bed of plants. You can grow extremely valuable and decorative plants like tumeric. Great start though.
hi there, great video, but i think u can have much bigger pond with 400 gal pump, at least 2x that size and with some extra filter u can put some koi there :)
It would be nice when the weather gets nicer, to see an update of this pond. It's been almost 2 years since this video. Would be nice to see how it has progressed. Just an idea for a future video.
biological material?? Have you had any problems with small animals falling in and dying because they cannot get out? (I have, that's why I ask. Lizards, etc ) Finished project looks great.
I have been looking for a video like this for months! It is perfect for my project, clear and concise. Thanks for posting it.
Your welcome! Glad you liked it. I need to do an update.
Best pond video I’ve seen thus far. Good for suburban households. Very descriptive, quick and to the point. Thank you🌞🦋🌴
I'm a beginner and really appreciate the detailed steps and commentary. thanks guy!!! awesome results.
+Michelle Wren Thanks! Its time to give this thing some YLC. Maybe this summer Ill get back to it.
Thank you for sharing your pool and waterfall construction, this turned out very nice. So relaxing.
Thank for sharing. Something so simple , but beautiful .
I like the fact that you show your trials and errors. That's very useful!
Great video, I love the step by step instructions. The pond looks great, can't wait for an update.
Hey your in luck this was a long time ago. I think I have a playlist for the pond.
@@pecktec Too funny! I got a notification for the video on my phone and just assumed it was new. I'll check it out. Thanks!
That’s really cute. I have one of those black containers but wasn’t sure what to do with it. This is perfect.!!
Great Job! Like the rocks and the size. I needed to see this, im wanting to this size in my front yard to see and hear. And you gave great information. Thanks!!
Beautiful and calming, you have really encouraged me to put my plan into action
Great video man! Nice install too. Thanks for sharing

+Jessica Barron thanks so much be sure to check out the newest version of it with the bog filter.
pecktec Thanks Pecktec, I will 😁
P.S.
Are those Parrot's Feather growing around your pond? That green feathery groundcover?
Omg thank so much I've been looking for a simple but to the point video
That looks so pretty!
Great project thank you for showing me everything you did
Be sure to check out the big filter upgrade I did. I’m posting an update this week also.
Good work..your video is actually a perfect check for small pond folks...good work sir :)
Thanks!
Thank you for the video. Where did you get the sub waterfall element?
Home depot I think.
If you had brought in more dirt for around the molded pond, you could have added the rocks and boulders and it would have looked more like you would have wanted, just FYI, otherwise it looks great! I would have made the flower bed around it larger to add more plantings too… We are going to do one also in our back yard by the patio this year.
Thanks for the tips!
Nice pond, really like those rocks
I really enjoyed your video thank you 😊
That looks great. Nice.
I have beautiful garden. Thanks I definitely use this ideas.
Been looking at a lot of videos, wanna do a pond myself. Nice work.
Good job my man.

That is beautiful. I love that Japanese Maple.
Looks great
Great video , great pond ! ..do you know what the dimensions of the liner are please ?

Thank YOU! Should I tilt my spillway or level it? I could not really tell in the video. Grateful I found you. Thx again
Slight tilt for aiming how the water comes out.
wow very helpful video.
Nice job.
Hi thank you for the video ,, just a question ,, what is the safe way to plug in the electricity to the pond ,, how to do it
Sara Alameri I just make sure the pump is grounded. All the stuff I use is made for ponds so I didn't really have to do anything special.
Sara Alameri
it looks really nice
This was 10 years ago! No way! Just popped back up in my feed
It's beautiful
Clay Yates Thanks!
Nice pond there, I want to build similar little bigger, would it be okay a pump with 28m3/h with power from 0,37 kW to 4,4 kW to have flow of water like you?
how many gallons per hour is your pump?
Nice job, looks great. I had never heard of using old news paper to line the bed before sound like a good idea tho.
great job
Thank you at last a vedio I can understand perfect size just what we want top marks : )
Thanks so much!
Great job, man. Some dirt backfill would have been great for that berm though. Also, try placing a small piece of PVC pipe, preferably black so you can't see it, on the bottom of the pool for a fish hide. Any problems with predators eating your fish?
That’s really nice
Does the pump need to go into the housing thing you had or can it set right in the pond
Those small ones should have some protection from debris. That’s the main reason for the box. There are pumps that are made to grind stuff up.
pecktec thanks, I will have to purchase one for the little pump I brought.
How does that filter work? Do you like it?
오 👍 인공연못~👍 👍
Wow,~~ amazing artifical pond made
Hi, just wondering if you did an update video. In this size pond, did the water ever get too hot? And how did the guppies do? Thank, love your videos!
TY for sharing
I'm a little late on my comment but still a awesome pond I hope you still have it up and running.
I do it’s evolved a little bit but still going.
Could I get the make/model of the pump? Great vid. Thanks!
Well where did you get the pump you have??? other wise nice display...
Where did you find the sub waterfall? I am. It able to find one online. Thank you! Cool pond!
+Ryan Enquist it was at the hardware store. Home Depot
Where did you order your waterfall construction? Can you send me website please? Thank you
I love it it is easier to make thanks
Is a pumb mandator if your not putting a water fall
No, but it helps. I get tons of algae and air in the water is best for any fish. I have two ponds and no waterfalls. I bought a very cheap "lily pad" that brings up water and makes a little trickle but it is solar and the more sun, the more algae it seems.
Would you happen to have the link to the spill away on Amazon? That would be greatly appreciated if friend (: nice video!
Any updates on this pond? What would you do different or add?
I’ll do an update next week.
Can you link to the pump filter housing kit?
Sorry it’s been too long ago. It was from Home Depot though.
how many gallons is that pond? thanks for the vid
+Enrico Alaggia about 30 or 40 I think.
Wow this came out amazing!!! Where did you get all your rocks from??
very nice

David Thourogood Thanks for stopping by!
hi there, great video, but i think u can have much bigger pond with 400 gal pump, at least 2x that size and with some extra filter u can put some koi there :)

+coolman wivbigsmile stay indoors
What is the name of the filter you are using
It would be nice when the weather gets nicer, to see an update of this pond. It's been almost 2 years since this video. Would be nice to see how it has progressed. Just an idea for a future video.

Where to buy this type pond
Home Depot I think

Need a update on it
I have a playlist with all the videos I’ve made on it. I normally do about one or two a year.

Have you had any problems with small animals falling in and dying because they cannot get out? (I have, that's why I ask. Lizards, etc )
Finished project looks great.
+Penny Cuff I did have a bird fall in once but mostly it's been ok.

Looks great pecteck
