@@dinisamante4449 I've made a lot of things like this, they just get better with time. Go ahead and make one if you want to. No need to wait, you'll be pleased with the results (or at least learn a lot if something goes wrong lol)
This is a perfect project for me and my wife. We were already considering a pond but thought we needed an electrician to get power to the spot for a pump or filter. This just makes it simpler. Thanks
Just make sure its somewhere where the water temp stays a steady temp a keep near a window not directly in front off to the side so when the sun goes down it isn't a huge change an invest in good bacteria. You can also get solar pumps an bubblers as well for water flow. ♡
It's so much fun to have these, and some with little waterfalls! It's easy too- just a little low flow aquarium pump to move the water, very inexpensive! (Less than $20!) Best of luck if you try this! You'll want more than 1, LOL!
It doesn't require a lot of care compared to a lot of other aquatic environments, but don't just assume it's zero maintenance. Make sure it's not directly in the sun for long periods of time because you will get algae growth, maintain temperature, and some movement in the water from a small powerhead would also be a good idea. Be sure to still do small water changed periodically because there still are some elements that can build up from replacing evaporated water over long periods of time. Check your pH, ammonia, nitrites, nitrates, phosphorus, etc still to be sure it's all in balance.
Problem with triops is they need their eggs to dry out to hatch, and I think they don't like having organic compounds in their water when hatching. It would be cool though if he could pull it off.
@@henk4700 prehaps so, but he'll only have around 90 days to enjoy them. Don't get me wrong though I would love to see him try to make a naturalistic triop enclosure, preferably one that he can mimic dry periods and have plants that can survive it as well.
Oh my goodness, I love these,. I would like to see more, I'm 77 a senior citizen, I do believe I can make this for my small deck ❤❤❤❤, this will be my happy place 😍
Hey, you can make life easier on yourself when using the diamond bit by cutting a sponge to fit inside the drill bit. Soak it in water and you will constantly be automatically adding water !
I saw these all over Asia, they had massive pots with aquatic plants and herbs and small koi swimming in them. I guess it's because of their small entrances. But they looked so artistic and charming. Always wanted to know how to make one, thanks so much! Hope we get to see more of these simple and yet elegant pot ponds!
This video is still probably one of your best mini pond builds - the simplicity of using terracotta pots to get riparian growth is astounding. I'm gonna try this out for my own balcony pond and the gold white clouds that'll call it home this summer!
I love that you take the time to identify with the scientific names every plant you use in your videos, that’s a great resource to find new plants I’d like to try myself! And great project with the pond!
I'd love to see more patio projects. Pond variations that also cater to wildlife like frogs, rather than JUST the depth necessary for captive fish. I could probably figure out a way to do that, but I'm not nearly as clever or experienced :p
Another beautiful bit of nature brought inside. Your expertise always impresses me.The knowledge of plants, of how living systems work, and the artistry required to create such "simple" works of art are proof that one should never forego an opportunity to learn anything.
Despite the beautiful ponds and such you can made with a pump, I think I prefer something easy going like that, not really too expensive and extravagant, but still something very nice, even classy if you plan well where to put it. Good job and thanks for the originality! 😊
Made me think that it could be nice for the fish if there were a few plants in little pots at the bottom? Seemed a little barren from their perspective.
Those guppies hit the jackpot being bought by you!! They will have a long wonderful life!! It is so beautiful, I have always wanted one but have been intimated by then ...
This video is awesome, you explained everything so well. When people aren't allowed to have fishtanks in apartments because fishtanks break, this indoor pond makes it the best for us to own, thank you!
These are so beautiful. I'm starting to make more miniature stuff and find so much inspiration through your channel. I may just have to build a miniature version of a patio pond. ❤️
Serp!!! Whats up brother Tristan here, we met at aquashella, my son spent the whole ride home researchering pixie frogs. He claims he will name it tanner in your honnor! You are such a good guy, man. You were the easiest to talk to, and after meeting you the first time felt like we been friends! I didnt want to bombard you but definitely could have spent the day talking to you, picking your brain! It was an honor and inspiration to meet you, i wish you all the continued success! Thanks for all you do!
You are right about the terrestrial plants being the most important in no filter low tech ponds ...for me I always use either pothos or singonium...they are the best natural filters and nitrate absorbers and they really be doing their own water cleaning. Floater plants are also good to complement this natural filter system👍👍👍🌸
Love it, you made it all seem so simple to do. I've been researching these ponds and decided I would start with trying to duplicate what you demonstrated. Thanks for sharing!
I absolutely love learning about low tech plant things, it feels like it is more eco friendly and budget friendly and doesn't require electricity and cables. Thank you for your videos, I really look forward to learning more about low tech things! (gardening tips? doesn't feel like the right word so I went for things haha)
Great video. Teaches us so many things. I liked the calm background too, without cluttering music, so natural. Joy to watch and easy to learn. Thanks for uploading :)
This was a very informative video. I’ve been wanting to make one of these for so long but I keep hesitating because I don’t want to mess it up. This was the best video I’ve seen so far of a set up from start to finish! I think I’ll finally take the plunge! TY!
This is exactle what i would like to build for my mother. We have a little butterfly garden and bird garden, amd i think having fish even guppies will make the perfect addition. Thank you for this great idea.
Could you do a video about an outdoor wildlife container pond like this sort of idea? But one that's suitable for colder climates? I'm in Scotland and would love to make one but unsure where to start. Your videos are always so detailed and easy to follow.
Are you allowed to collect from the wild? If yes, look at nature around you. Use local marginal plants, and add local wetlands fish / minnows, etc. For the winter you can surround with hay bales and put a thermal window on top to prevent freezing, or drop a horse trough heater in to keep one spot clear of ice, or use an insulated pond so that freezing water on top won't bust the pond. Best of luck!
I love this idea and I was thinking about an outdoor Ontario pond-in-a-tank - of course it would have to be emptied at winter time, but I love the idea of having species of tiny insects and fish and amphibians visible through glass. We have a pond but you cant see what goes on in a pond from the top.
I just completed my own based on this tutorial and it turned out sweet, thanks mate I love it. Cost a bit more than I anticipated but the reward was worth it in the end.
For better drilling techniques with those diamond core bits, drill a hole through a dry sponge first, then get it wet and put it on the inside of your bit! As you drill and press through it will release water keeping it more wet while drilling!
Love watching your projects bro! You come up with crazy awesome stuff to build, talk about expanding your imagination! You've given me ideas I know I never would have thought of, thanks so much and can't wait to see what you build next!
It's a neat system, but I'd think an airstone (or two, depending on the size) would be pretty good just to aerate the water a bit - especially as the plants are mostly bog/terra-types and not inside. Tho with little livestock it won't be much a problem (unless they breed uncontrollably lol)
Another great build. This is a good way to inspire people to put a riparium in their home. Especially since the only electricity needed is light. This would also be a great outdoor feature in a more southern climate. There is however; two things I would alter if I made one myself. First I would add some shrimp. Help with additional waste control. And some snails for the same reason.
Hey Tanner, I’ve been looking into DIY birdbath fountains lately, I’d love to see your spin on a great naturalistic one if you’re looking for a new project. ✌️ I bet you could make something fantastic
Wow. You have given me a great tip to use terrestrial plants instead of aquatic ones in my fish tubs / urns. I live in Thailand and keep platy, guppy, lace gourami, mollies, and beta fish outdoors in large posts like this. I have always used aquatic plants as I thought the roots of land plants would rot in the water. I am off tomorrow to the plant market to find some of the plants that you used! If it means I can cut down on water changes it will be fantastic.
Low tech in fishkeeping refers to the equipment used to maintain the ecosystem in the tank. High tech would include things like CO2 injection, sump/canister filters, fertilizers, etc.
A good drill and good diamond head cutter like that will probably put you back $160-$200 at lowes, Kinda expensive but worth having if you're into this hobby enough
I’m curious where you obtain such a multitude and variety of plants. Some are quite small and I wonder if they’re available like that in a regular nursery or if you have a special source ( not asking for names, just curious about whether you buy ‘in bulk’ or have a place that sells them individually, etc.) This project certainly is beautiful. Well done! (As usual 👏🏻)
So simple and beautiful. This is one of my favorites. It would be perfect for my front porch. I live in SC and was wondering if the summer heat would cause any problems.
I do something similar, and I live in SC. Just doesn’t need to be in direct sun, and use outdoor hardy plants. Mine gets a splash from the garden house twice a day to help with generating oxygen. My grandmother did the same, in huge clay pots. You will get some algae, but not much. I also use gold fish the same, just not too much. Best wishes 💐
Great setup! But every time I’ve removed all the soil from roots, or pulled off roots like that, it’s caused extreme setback in the plants. What are you doing differently that “stimulates growth” as you say? I’ve always had the best results from not disturbing the roots, not cutting any live roots, and being gentle with roots in general (not breaking any roots).
when you transplant a plant pot to pot, yes you do trim roots. The plant may seem smaller by trimming it roots and I see he did trim some leaves to clean it up ( big plant in middle) but over next 2-3 months, it'll bounce back fuller and healthier growth.
@@hushpuppyandfriends5115 then what am I doing wrong that removing all the soil or trimming roots leads to a half dead plant and setback 2-3 months just to get it looking the same again?

Gotta keep it fresh and try new things. 😎
This is pretty popular amongst rural Japanese homes, my grandparents have made two of these

Yes, and include any cleaning & maintenance tips as well.
This is a perfect project for me and my wife. We were already considering a pond but thought we needed an electrician to get power to the spot for a pump or filter. This just makes it simpler. Thanks
Just make sure its somewhere where the water temp stays a steady temp a keep near a window not directly in front off to the side so when the sun goes down it isn't a huge change an invest in good bacteria. You can also get solar pumps an bubblers as well for water flow. ♡
It's so much fun to have these, and some with little waterfalls! It's easy too- just a little low flow aquarium pump to move the water, very inexpensive! (Less than $20!) Best of luck if you try this! You'll want more than 1, LOL!
It doesn't require a lot of care compared to a lot of other aquatic environments, but don't just assume it's zero maintenance.

Check your pH, ammonia, nitrites, nitrates, phosphorus, etc still to be sure it's all in balance.
@@abalczon you could add shrimp to eat the slgae
You should make a prehistoric themed aquarium or riparium with the resurrection plant and triops in the water
Would be cool but cooler if you do an natural style scape
Upvoting this idea
Problem with triops is they need their eggs to dry out to hatch, and I think they don't like having organic compounds in their water when hatching. It would be cool though if he could pull it off.
@@markwilson4686 sowhat maybe he does not want babys?
@@henk4700 prehaps so, but he'll only have around 90 days to enjoy them. Don't get me wrong though I would love to see him try to make a naturalistic triop enclosure, preferably one that he can mimic dry periods and have plants that can survive it as well.
