I Made The BEST LED Patio Pond - Setup & Tutorial

Today we set up another awesome Ricefish patio pond! This one is 2 stories, lights up at night and also totally wireless! This diy patio fish pond is perfect for a secured backyard or even a balcony on an apartment. Ricefish are also the perfect fish for this type of small pond, you cant go wrong here :)

Who's rockin' a few patio ponds this Summer???? 😎

Next time, put the bigger container down upside down and work to attach the smaller container on top of that, then flip it over. Much easier than trying to center the big container on top of the little container.
I LOVE the idea of using a book light! I'm going to do that for my new Betta's aquarium! For siphoning mini ponds, you could use a powerhead with a sponge over the inflow to keep the fish from getting sucked up. A powerhead with tubing attached is much smaller than a pump and will move the water out much faster than a regular siphon. That's what I use for my patio container ponds for water changes. Just be sure to put a sponge over the intake as it will shred your fish if they get sucked in.

It's almost Autumn and I am literally obsessed with building a container pond and adding Medakas. Never built one before and really appreciate the video series. Thank you!

I added different neocaridina shrimps to mine. they co habitat well together. I'm on pot or pond #3 now. all with different color shrimps and rice fish

I really love the Creeping Jenny. So many ideas on how I can improve my ponds next summer. I'm sure those sponge mops work well, considering their popularity, but they are so ugly. I'm just going to move my water hyacinth from the adult ricefish pond to the baby ricefish pond.

Just love these mini ponds! So pretty and very interesting to watch! 😊

[darrylmoore]

The pond series has been very enjoyable.

[ginadelgado]

The fish would cook in AZ and here in Las Vegas! today was 117. No mercy in the shade. I had an indoor pond for a few years.

JB weld (plastic weld) it's cheap easy to use and very strong it's a 2 part epoxy that comes in a syringe built my dude! 🤙🏼

Do you have a link to the light you used?

[bikergod]

Just built myself a new patio pond. I’m curious what you do with your floating plants and livestock on winter?

[rexter]

Don't know if this was suggested yet/if you tried this approach, but you can line the inner overhang lip (that makes it hard to clean out the bottom as you mentioned earlier in the video) with aluminum tape or other reflective material and thread a line of LEDs in that gap, ideally trying to face them downwards but the reflective material will make it more diffuse anyway. That way you can hide the LEDs a bit better, they might be better at penetrating to the bottom of the pot pond

Nice setup, Are the containers made of plastic? And also, no heater needed for the fish?

[Mopheadeyes]

I'm gonna make one of these! Sick!

[Deathbyfartz]

i feel like the rim of that bucket is big enough to stick a led strip up underneath, essentially use it as a led channel, that way it would point down along side all the way around the bucket, and the strips would be protected from the weather.

[andrianahernandez]

What about when it rains or when it’s too cold

[Toaster-vz]

Looks great. Im going to to a pot pond, but i dont think I'll be adding fish.

[kamalani]

You may say, but what fish do you use? Guppies are my favorite, but they are hard to get here in Hawaii. We also don’t have rice fish, so I need something. Any ideas?

The ir themometer mesures surface temperature which means you only get the correct number if ALL water ADN the surface have the same. If you point it at transparent plastic you might get the wrong number. A proper thermometer for water is pretty cheap.
