Summer patio ponding is super fun! Your ponds always look awesome and the tips and tricks you include are priceless. Thank you!
This is my second year setting up a patio pond. No fish last year, but this year I’ve finally got some Medakas. My mini pond is 20sh gal with 10 gal bog filter (overkill for sure). This week I had to buy another 10 gal planter just to move excess water hyacinths which are overtaking water surface. I find that with these type of setups, it’s difficult to register any N in the water. Even nitrates aren’t showing unless I’m frequently adding ferts. I also let Mother Nature do the water changes - typically we get enough rain in NC to do the job.

Hey so if you’re using aquarium co op strips I actually did an experiment last summer and found out that sunlight will cause the strips to read as positive for chlorine! Take some pond water inside and then test and the chlorine shouldn’t show up!

I love the idea of having a little pond in the backyard, I am going to try this. As a dressmaker, I do have to comment on the shears that you were using to cut those scouring pads… Were those your wife’s good fabric scissors??! 😮

That looks nice. My dogs would however use it as a constant water source.. lol

Love it! I’m enjoying summer tubbing too. Right now just two ponds in the yard…plus a 10 gal tank on the porch.

I pulled the plug on my summer tubbing. The weather has been cooler than average here in SW Virginia. Luv the Fish food legit. Or I should say my fish do. 😊

I had a bubbler in my pond I did not do any water changes throughout the entire summer. My biggest concern was the pond overheating starting first thing in the morning at 1:00 in the afternoon I started adding ice.

u could put some weed barrier or somthing over the hole to let overflow drain off and keep fry from falling out

[cfajardo]

Yeah I’m sure your fish will love the strobe light effect

Great video brother what did u say the black soil looking stuff was called that u put in thos pound and do u need a pound heater for this project i look foward to your reply

[RyanStonedonCanadianGaming]

Just because they're tough and hardy, don't let the water quality get too bad as they will still die.
Learned this the hard way.
For cold winter people, Don't leave the plastic tubs full in the winter time as they will crack due to expanding ice from freezing.
Also learned this the hard way.
Don't have it sitting in direct sunlight for so long or you'll have a nice mat of algae growing on the walls.
I'm probably forgetting other things from personal experience.

You should see on made a hole with pcv and sponge filter sponge lol

In the fall DT has the black or green pool noodles. My question is what do you do with the pond in the wintertime, I live in NW Georgia . Enjoy wa6your videos they are very helpful, thank you .😊

[paulie]

I use a black pipe insulator instead of pool noodle, its a little less conspicuous than the neon colors most noodles come in. But if youre trying not to cross strains of ricefish, i see why you'd color-code them.

Where could I find to purchase the Rice fish

[benderc]

How do u keep the temp up? I stay is AZ so it can get cold outside

[jawsua]

I love this! where did you get the planter at?

[Grud_blonski]

hey! I am new to this hobby and i was wondering how to keep the check o2 level in check in a no tech setup like this? how much aqua plant is enough for what amount of fishes(also types of fishes). can you please explain some of that in your next video?

[ndrewtankh]

Can I have more information about the solar pump you are using? The link in the description takes me to a generic list of solar pumps (probably due to my location) and I have no idea which you are using.

[chuckd]

Could I leave this fish in pond in the winter in the St. Louis area or would I need a heater?
