I love this pond. This is the best pond and filter design ever. Congrats to you and thank you for the helpful explanation
This is the best video I have seen , very informative, I like the simplicity, I'm in Florida as well , 50 miles north of tampa, love my koi and you have shown me an great example to follow , thanks!!! JAY ...ENJOY , hope to see an update soon
You have created an absolute oasis, beautiful!
thank you, you can't imagine how helpful it is for a beginner.
Beautiful. If Everyone did what You did , the Earth would be Paradise.
this is beautiful.. We built our in 2014. I have a 700 gallon koi and my husband has a 5000 gallon koi pond. we live in texas and you know how the heat and sun is here. we run our UV most all year and shut it down in the winter. great job and I love the landscaping...
We are in Awe of the Effort and Effects.
That is a beautiful pond! Thanks for the inspiration
You have done a great job. I love it. and thanks for the great tips
Great video .. I love that pond 👍🏻
you have a very nice pond and fishes in there.
Nice pond, have the same design in mind but 4 ft deep, in a screened in pool area. I have lots of stray cats and nocturnal animals around, hence the reason for enclosed pool area. Also lots of snakes
Think you done a brilliant job, learned me lots, thankyou.
awesome koi pond. subscribed to your channel. I just put in 100+ koi in my 1000 gallon pond on my channel
Great informative video. thank you for the time and effort and all the great information.
I love that your system is so simple. The pond I am building is very similar in size and design as yours, I have the floor poured and block walls built. Still looking into a filtering system...so much info on the market...its a bit confusing...
Could you tell me a little bit more about your filter system?
For waterproofing the pond I was going to use mortar dyed with black-the same process as a black-bottom pool. thkx again
ps...Love how the wood fencing weathered and aged.
Good job, thanks for the knowledge. Respect
Nice!!!
Very good video. Thank you !!!
Very interesting information thanks for sharing!
great pond. simple and beautiful. try using water hyacinths in your filter, helps a lot with filtration.
Sunil Maharaj If you look early on in the video you'll see we had them in the filter, but after several months the roots began to grow into our filter media so we removed them.
If you use the peroxide just spray it on and heat and sun will make muck turn white and it will float into the pond to be picked up by the filter when you turn the water on .I also made video's of my pond but mine has a liner
Great pond new subscriber Barry Manchester England 👍
Wunderbar Umgebung aussehen TOP !!!
Great video and work..
Would you consider fiberglass as your final sealant?
what camera did you use to take all of those pictures in the video? they were really great!
I used a Canon 7D dslr. I try and avoid a cell phone I like having nice photos to look back on in the future. We get so used to using a cell phone and end up with what we think are good pics but they really are only pics...
How to clean whole house water filters
Beautiful pond! The kois look healthy.
The tilapias are to eat?
marcela shagas Yup, The tilapia will become our dinner one day, they just spawned again and we have several hundred in the pond now about the size of your hand
techtiptricks I have a little pond with few goldfish, was always wondering if I could grow some tilapias there. Will they sell them in a pet shop?
👍
Very nice pond. Which brand of rubber coating did you apply?
+Ziggy S Initially I used ruberize it... after a while it began to bubble and lift, we pressure washed it all off after about 3 months. It now has a natural alage coating which is better than a sealer. Mortar is water proof anyway so no leaking.
All sealing /water proofing was done with Typical Mortar mix like you would use to lay concrete blocks or bricks found in homes. Mortar mix is water proof once it's thickness is greater than 1/4 inch
Surprised you don't have an island in the middle, with two turtles basking.
How did you waterproof the penetration of the pipes into the filter tank?

nce pond
A lot of work but worth it.. P.S. nice dog fish 25:35 LOL
What do u feed them and how often
cristina ibarra Typical round floating pellets. We get a 50 lb bag from a farmers type store here in Florida for $13.00 the food is typically what fish farmers feed catfish when raising them for market.
Can I turn on UV clarifier forever?
Is it good for the fish or bad?
You can but it only wears down the effectiveness of the bulb. The light only kills algae and bacteria in the water, it does nothing to the water itself.
how deep did you say 2 foot?
Ray Andrew Ya 2 ft, we went that depth because we really want to be able to see the fish up close and didn't need a building permit if we kept it at 2ft
What is your Pond Pump?
Joel Patrick Sarmiento Its an evolution series, about a 300.00 pump.. Cheap as far as pumps go. 1.8 amps and a flow rate of 4500 gallons per hour there cheap pumps, but if you get one that lasts 5 years you got a great deal. coming up on 4.5 years on this pump, so far so good. No maintenance at all.
techtiptricks Thank you for the information.
I have a small pond and we are about to build a bigger pond as the Koi. Anyhow, I am looking for best pond pump with low energy consumption. Also I might go with Airlift pump along paired with power pump just like your setup.
use peroxide because barley breaks down into peroxide and not as dangerous as bleach for the fish .
Very nice setup. Check out my small pond in my channel cheers
