Who is we?
I loved the underwater footage, it looked like something from a real pond/river. What youve done is really beautiful and good environment for the fish (and the greenhouse for other animals too).
Hey thanks :) Ill try and do it more often
I bet Chris would like a second Goldfish added, they are very social fish..
Under water view of the big pond with the fish swimming is DOPE ...... awesome pond it is . Will look forward to see more go pro underwater videos
Can u do a vid on how you clean your pond? Thx😁
Ohhh I wanted to make one of these mini ponds but didn't know how to go about it that's budget friendly. Thanks for the tips. This was awesome ❤
Its a water bucket with plants
@@HAWKONER I see that
@@vitamincalmasmr lol
@@HAWKONER 🤪😁
his transition from talking about the pond to "i see a sluuuuguh" is literally my entire attention span.
You’re like the “ChrisFix” for aquarium hobby. Great videos!
minh pham I don’t think many people on this channel will know who ChrisFix is. 😂 But here we are.
Helpful tip: you can cut holes in the empty pots you flipped upside down to raise your potted plants. This will allow fish to swim into them giving more space for them and they will also more than likely lay eggs in there as well. Depending on the fish.
Thank you! I have wanted a little pond for my entire life and this looks perfect
Awesome video Mike! I live for the budget projects, it's rewarding to have great results from a cheap setup, you feel like a BOSS lol
This is so awesome! Under a $100. You can't go wrong. Thank you for the great idea & showing us where to get all the goodies.
The green house is looking beautifully lush and lovely.
Great tips on a small budget friendly pond.
👍💕👍
Oohy my duck will love this! Im adding minnows in the snack bowl
Your other pond looks amazing too. All those plants look so pretty and healthy
What a great idea. You have just given something fun to try.
What are you going to do in the winter?
So glad I stumbled upon your vid because I am actually picking up this same barrel tomorrow at HD & my solar powered pump arrived from AMZ yesterday - both will be used for my small pond project which I plan to try out this wk :) Great to see you do it first so I can plan ahead. My pump is a floating kind because I enjoy the splashing sounds of the water. Great greenhouse setup btw. Very informative vid overall 👍😄
If u have it does it need bright sun
I've been following your pond from set-up and i cant help but wonder; "how do you even keep it from developing algae"?
The slug is foreshadowing to the secret slug tank project he hasn't told us about
Its a secret...
Dude why didya expose him
the deck is looking GREAT! Although, I personally think it could use some more florals. Maybe some petunias and ivy geraniums in a couple planters or baskets. Still looks good though!
Love the mini pond! I might try it :)
Nice I’ve been looking into mini above ground ponds
Well, I will have to give that a go I think. Looked great, always wanted a pond but not enough room sadly.
Bro this is gorgeous
plain space: *exists*
aquapros: pOnDs
Great idea
Amazing!!
Loved the whole video but especially the under water view
Uuuhhh nice, solar pump. 💚
I have veriagated water celery in a pond that's the same as yours I think, the 120 ish insert that is, and it sends runners like crazy that have covered the top of our pond
Those are awesome shoes!!
I just made one something like your but I have two barrels with a smaller one on top of them that have my Iris, elephant ear , and mint that is part of the filtration system and it all goes back into the two barrels just trying to think of what fish to put in
Hi. I’m a new subscriber. What a great video. I live in an apartment now and miss having a pond. This is perfect. I have a large covered patio with two skylights with two unused GFCI outlets. My condo rules say I can have a 25 gal. Aquarium. The don’t mention inside our outside. They are really worried about West Nile virus, though. Would the filtration and the fish you suggested take care of mosquitos?
I have been viewing your videos for over a year and am highly motivated to do a deck pond, or even larger, getting a large basin from Tractor Supply and doing what your videos show us. My fear/concern is this: my home has no level area as it's built on a rock, literally. If I leveled an area, could a basin which is 30 ' in deep (meant for cattle in the field) be above ground, w/o any digging, surrounded by a large amount of stone? I' like to get your input before I buy this basin.
Have you made a pond for tadpole for an allotment project ? Thank you
I’ve just started a similar barrel pond and enjoyed your video. Why just circulate the water with the pump ? What will that help with .
Nice video. Always enjoy watching ur videos. Love it setups. Quick question...what are those grass plants (7:30) . Because I have the same plants in my a.m.pls planted tank. But I don't know the name. Thanks buddy. Keep on making those awesome videos!!!
like a second Goldfish added, they are very social fish.. What youve done is really beautiful and good environment for the fish
I'm guessing there's only room for the one goldfish. I can't tell the size of the pond, since it's so densely planted, but one goldfish needs at least 30 gallons to grow into, and way more if it's a comet or common. I do wonder how the goldfish is getting along so well with the minnows; I know their environmental needs are the same, I just wonder why they aren't food yet ;)
It's beautiful!!! What camera did you use to record underwater? TIA
I give extra plants away to neighbors or friends. Or simply put a sign out that says free to good home lol
where did you buy your shoes?! I've been looking everywhere i want a pair!! By the way nice pond i think i'm going to do this soon, and i want to add those minnows those are awesome! cool vid bro keep it up !!
do you bring it in when it gets cold?
Is the fertilizer that is in the pre potted safe for fish?
Use building bricks with the holes in them and place them on their sides or on end and place pots on those.
This looks great. I’ve never done this before, and was inspired enough to try it myself. Somehow, I screwed it up. :( I got the same large pot, bought a few aquatic plants at the local hardware/garden center. Ordered a solar filter which isn’t here yet. Thought I’d add a substrate to bottom and add a few bottom plants like I saw in another video of yours... looked simple enough. I rinsed it in another pot, added it to bottom and slowly added water. Now I have muddy water (like coffee with a little creamer added). Did I do something wrong? Do I need to start over and omit the substrate? Anyone?
I have a very similar water pound 😃
When you gonna stock ancient gardens?
You should add shrimp. That would be awesome!
Mickey mouse platys work great in my outdoor pond. I've got a solar power pump and it works well. I think you'll need at least 2 fish to keep mosquitos at bay. Thanks Mike.
Thanks for watchin ;)
Mosquito breeder! 😂 That might put the brakes on my project ....😔
I’ve never created a pond before...Does the solar pump discourage mosquitos from breeding in it? Are mosquitoes ever a problem with ponds?
Ted Coletti’s book, The Tub Pond Handbook, covers all these exact same tips and topics in great detail.
Eric K thanks for the tip Eric, much appreciated
How well does that solar pump work on our cloudy days?
I have one similar. It works fine, depending on lighting intensity and where the panel is positioned. Worse case, you may have some pulsing...
I’ll have to tell my daughter’s boyfriend that there’s a sweet fish with his name. I will tell him about your channel! 🧡
Does the solar panel need bright sun
What about the dirt in the plants you got from the store. How do you know that the dirt is fish safe??
You should move Chris to the new pond. his own special home
I live in Tampa FL, how well would one of these work for me? It gets nasty here
Dan Ramsey I live in Tampa too, following this 😂
Gordon Ramsey's long lost broda
What song is this!?
Does the carpeting mint have a minty smell to it?
Ya its smells!
Do you not need a pump or aeration?
Haziii. Mấy cây bèo này ae qua Việt Nam nhiều lắm tui cho vài bao về mà thả 😆
00:16 I have only one aquarium so I must compost "extra" plants. I also don't like to do it but I just don't have place for them. Meaby I will manage to save some of them when I'll set up new aquarium but right now I don't have space for a new tank :(
You should try finding other aqua enthusiasts in your area so you can trade, give away, or sell them! Plus the added advantage of having someone to gush over aqua stuff without them looking at you as if you were crazy ;)
@@annethornton9938 I think it's too late - most of my friends already known that I'm crazy about "aquarium stuff" ;) I tried to "draw them" into this hobby but they are not interested :/ À propos your other advices - I tried to give some stuff to the local pet shop but they didn't want it (they can't sale stuff from "unknown origin" and actually I agree with that), I also don't known much people in my town who have fish tank so I gues I must wait if someone from my class decide to set up aquarium
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
What plant is that @ 7:41 ??????
why the beneficial bacteria and all if it's already loaded with plants?
Lol 7:31 fish got stuck in grass 😂
Any concerns about the temp of the water, given a "pond" on a deck is likely exposed to the sun for a good chunk of the day?
The plants provide significant shade, but on hot days there'll be no escaping the heat. Had to dump several buckets of cold water into our patio 'pond' during last week's heat wave, even just to cool it a few degrees for a few hours...
Home depot sells pond baskets for about $1.60
AWESOME little pond I'd like to have 1 but i'm surrounded by trees & no sun so solar wouldn't work.
It doesn't have to be direct sunlight
Nice video Mike! I’m building a pond at the moment in my yard. I made a Rescape video on my new TH-cam channel, for a 5 gallon betta tank. I’m 13 and want a channel like yours
Pretty cool dude
Thanks Collin!
👍
I just put healthy extra plants in a 60 quart tub and leave it indoors with a UV light
Please get frogs for the green house (native frogs)
FYI PSA Walmart has very large pots Available for$7!
I’ve watched your videos for a long time, but I’m not much of a commenter. But, I just have to say your greenhouse is amazing! What are the plans for winter? On a side note, I really think you should try some sarracenias! There are so many cool carnivorous pitcher plants that work in a temperate climate!
Where's the greenhouse pond :p?
First and first thumbs up woooooooooo
YEEET
I trade my extra plants and large trimmings to my lfs for a small store credit.
I would bet it would do fine without any solar pump....
Rachel O’Leary has been doing ponds on a budget since the spring.
I sell or give away my extra plants.
Cartman Bruh!
Or you can share plants with others on freecycle.
how about getting an old stump as a chair
I likeeee
And I see a Sluuuhguh
||-//
why do you live in suburbia
I've had those lights for my pool. They all leaked.
you need shrimp in the green house pond the population will explode in there
Where’s Oreo??
Uhhhh mike.... you're married?! is this new
Bigger question... Why buy plants when the green house is looking over-burdenedd
If you do this in warmer climates, do put fish in it or it'll be a mosquito magnet.
Bold of u thinking I have that much money
Place some fish unless you're keeping mosquitoes.
I think fish are necessary unless you like mosquitoes.
Fish or a pump to add surface agitation
UR SO CUTE
Very inexpensive means around 100$! I wonder what 10$ means then.
my neighbour's girlfriend sits on his deck all day watchin the traffic
Oh look, a slug
