You amaze us all with EVERYTHING you do! So talented and knowledgeable and TRULY care about the turtles 🐢 ❤!!!
Thank you!!
Awesome job. It's always fulfilling making things yourself.
Absolutely!!!
I am a turtle in a 90 gallon tank, but I feel like he would be so much happier and a larger space. we have a few garden beds that need to be redone in our backyard and I figured while doing that I could possibly build an elevated pond and this is the best video I’ve seen so far. Thank you.
Well, that was fun. What a lucky find, getting all that lumber for free!
Thank you for including the cuties swimming their little faces up to the camera, then eating! Hope they didn't do worse than nip your fingers a bit.
“You basically just have to keep manipulating it, like I did my ex girlfriend, as much as humanly possible.” 💀💀💀😂
Yeah, I had to rewind to make sure that's what he said.
lol stick with turtles Dan bc that is messed up
Been doing research all day on building a cheap pond. Perfect timing 👌🏼 thank you sir
i dont know how happy the turtles are in that small habitat
AWESOME! So good to see what a good life you give your turtles 🐢💚
This was so helpful I have two big girls and one king yellow bellys I've had them for 6 years and was always nervous keeping them outside now I'm more confident my children will be safe 😂😎🐢
this pond looks soooo nice!
The turtles trying to bite you made me flinch lol. My boy is a gentle one
Hey bro thank you for sharing your amazing pond process built. On the next video can you show us the filtration side? That pond is sick 🤙🏼
Sure! It’s a canister filter I have in the box
Awesome job Dan! reclaimed wood!! Let’s goo!! 👍 🍻
Yessir!
I'm definitely curious about how you'll set up the filtration! Also, is there a way to drain it to do a full-pond clean, or will that not be necessary?
I love this so much. Thanks for sharing
Love it. Great job!👍
Thank you!!
Ty Dan. Im using ur idea for a top for our new outdoor enclosure. ❤
Finally moving to a house where I have room to expand! Thanks for the ideas ❤
recycling ♻ ♻ love it mate keep it up can not wait for the next upload 🙂🙂
Well this was an inspiring little build 🙂 I'd love to give my pair a bigger enclosure, I just use a giant tub, never thought about building with a pond liner before, nice bit of dumpster diving finding all the lumber 👍😁 great to see you moving on Dan, pim sure your little turts 🐢🐢🐢will love their new home
Awesome job - 🐢
Just saw this video….Great video!
That thing is sick!
❤❤ Absolutely what I need to make for my Yellow bellied sliders. 👍💚🐢🐢
Great job n video they look happy 🐢❤️❤️💜💜😻😻😺😺
Very nice build Dan.
Thank you!!
Love it 😍
Dude!!!! This is fantastic! Gonna copy your design! Simple and repeatable! I need to get my terrapins (and painted turtles) outside!!!
The title 💪
Fr tho
The OUTDOOR pond is back!
awesome video dan, i was thinking about building a cheap tankf or my map turtle, this is such a awesome idea and I hope your other turtles are doing well.
Love it❤❤❤❤
You just HAD to make this pond! Guess I know what my next spring project is going to be. Curse Youuuuuu!
Oh yeah 🙌
Its best to use water protecter on the wood to protect it from the rain water
Hey man, love what you are doing here and you are so encouraging to me. ❤ I just got a new diamondback terrapin and I don’t know what to do, Please help 🙂
A cool video my friend - I subscribed. You mat want to look at DIY bog filters they are easy to make and work really well.
Can't wait to see an update.
I hope to have the space to do this for my Red Eared Sliders one day
Looks awesome thanks for sharing..what wood do you recommend for a basking area
Great jod
Your next big adventure will be building a house or getting another house when you get older and you build the house around the turtle pond that should be your next adventure. When you hit your 40s 50s I would love to see that I bet you could do it no problem.
Your concrete already has stress cracks and you just added 2 tons on the very edge of it. I strongly suggest you move it to the ground next to your concrete pad.
Yep a bait tank am thinking 😂
Would plexiglass work on the sides? I love watching my girl in her aquarium and watching her sleep, dig etc. and she interacts with me through the glass.
If it’s strong enough, yes!
amazing! ive been wanting to get a turtle for a while but ponds are just really expensive and this helped a lot! what filter do you use for a pond this size?
4:20 that line was WILD 💀
Fantastic!!!!
Although pre drilling and using a tape measure is 10000000000% a waste of time 80% of the time lol.
What did you use as a dock? What type of plants?
How did you set up the drift wood for the turtles to bask with out the wood getting water logged?
How are you filtering the water?
How to add a side with sand for egg laying.
Duuuude that's so cool
"As I did to my ex girlfriend" that's terrible xD
Is it possible to build this with a window on the side for viewing?
How did you secure the pond liner to the sides of the pond?
Great job! Some of the wood looked pressure treated, was that the case?
So what did you do about filtration. I'm curious
where is the best place to buy the liner?
There’s a few different places! Halfoffponds.com, Craigslist, Amazon, or directly from the supplier!
You have to factor in not everyone has a saw for lumber or a construction site nearby
Don't you need to waterproof the wood?
Just a question. Is the pond still OK after several months? I worry about the long nails that turtles have and breaking the plastic liner....
What kind of pump is that?
hey, question I am trying to do something similar to your build I have a tank already built up now I'm wondering what if I need a basking spot. I have red-eared sliders and I was wondering if I could do something similar to yours or if would i need to make it slightly different. For example if i needed a basking spot or more land for the red-eared sliders
Are you using any type of heating system since it's outside or will the water Temps be ok because of the larger mass of water
what about basking area? or like a land area? and i know it's outside but uvb or heat?
@dantheturtleman question. can you plug the filter into an outlet outside underneath your patio or do you have to do something special. i would like to build one o. my patio too
Just make sure it doesn’t get wet, and plug it in!
how much gallons is this build?
0:13 hiii
Hiiii
Why is the title the date?
Because I’m a moron 🙃🤣 fixed!
Now it looks better, plus i liked your manipulate your girlfriend joke
Dan please buy a black turtle
is it safe to have that many turtles in the same pond?
I'm looking for baby diamond back terrapi a do you sell them or could point me in the right direction for a couple of them?
Great Joke!!!!
Time stamp dude
Bruh... the money you can save with 'scrap' wood from construction is massive! I used to make bookshelves out of scavenged pallet wood.
I’m boutta build a house with it all 😭
🐢🐢🐢
U should mail me a turtle I have a perfect tank for it and want to build a collection right now I only have a red eared slidder
Oh no not the intank and filtration 😅
Bro you did not get that wood for free lmao .
The ex-girlfriend joke was a bit uncomfortable but this video is super helpful!
it took me so off guard ...
Grow a pair.
It was a joke
What happens when it's time for eggs, no place to drop them, need some land for the girls
So this is a great point. I know my girls and their behaviors, and I palpate them frequently. I’ll know when they’re gravid and take them out to lay!
Im a cheap above ground pound he could F up 🥵🥵
bro built a mini lake on his back patio in order to avoid his psychiatrists… what’s your excuse?
I too manipulate girlfriends, never my wife
🤣🤣🤣
When I see a useless clickbaity arrow in your thumbnail is when I block your channel. Be informative, not clickbaity. It just makes you look bad.
I have a question about my alligator snapping turtle. He. Has not ate? Since the end of November hes still active pretty energetic sometimes going around the aquarium but still has not tried to. Can you please help you sound very knowledgeable? I've had turtles all my life and I've never had this issue.
