Have been lucky enough to work with Richard and family on the 2nd pond a few months ago, and recently joining them again to work in their family business. Just the best folks to work with & deserving of all the rewards of their hard work!
So happy for this contractor to hear that once he became an aquascape team his life has changed for the better and crazy it took 20 years. Greg your so awsome. You not only provide one of a kind water features you also provide thousands of companys with an amazing company that is very profitable for them. Awsome.
More great ponds from Bells Watergardens. Great job guys 👍 Love that rock harvested onsite. There’s some cracking rocks there! Nice pond ladder too. Cute as.
Congratulations Richard on finding a great way to work as a family and meet lots of interesting people on beautiful properties like those we have seen in these videos.
Greg, thanks for showing us another one of the successful overseas Aquascape contractors. It's so nice to see the artistry achieved in each location using their native stones. Great work Richard! Awesome to see men loving their work!
Richard you and your wife have an wonderful family, an inspiring story and passion that can be felt across the miles and through an electronic screen! Your work is incredible! Keep it up!
You still amaze me Greg, you could sit back a reap the rewards of all your work but no you are out there ( over here in AUstralia) meeting all the Aquascape contractors and their customers. To think the first couple of videos I seen with you put me off as you seemed too loud and over the top......Now I am super impressed with your passion and zest for getting people see the life benefits of natural ponds. I just hope one day I can afford one, until then my backyard bathtub with small waterfall will have to do (it can't be too bad as we have many tadpoles and young frogs making it home).
This pond and house is not as "spectacular"/"epic" as other pond and house in other videos. But I like this one, normal and nice like their owner. When I got retired, I would like to live off grid like them
My mum and I live in Tasmania, Australia. Both of us are widows, both lost our partners to the same heart condition. My dad in 2001 and my partner in 2005 at just 24yrs. I’ve always wanted to put a beautiful pond in for my mum, but neither of us can afford it
Good day Mr Wittstock. Any installer you recommend in Johannesburg (South Africa) please... I’ve already dug my 2.5 by 2.5 metre (width plus length) hole...on an almost a metre depth....*all by myself* 😅 I’ve already purchased a liner online as I’ve been all over our country looking for it with no luck on my specific size... have ordered an 8 by 10 metre *expected date of delivery is now approximately 38 days* Already bought my “aqua garden” pump that caters for 6750 liter pond at pet masters ...also have a 4 metre by 4 metre liner I also found at pet master that am thinking of using for waterfall I’ve already saved for the filter and be buying filter tomorrow “God Willing” The hole I dug myself but now I suppose I may need a professional for a skimmer but ofcos am a very hands on lady so will be assisting when I manage to find a professional installer cos I’ve now fallen in love with this hobby by now due to people like you, Paul Cuffaro etc. Thanks in advance for your response Sir.
Oh one more thing... I reside in a township (hood) *NOT A SUBURB* Just love the idea of bringing these things to our hood... Waterscape is the way to go indeed 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 3 goldfish owner since April 2018 (currently in a tank and I would have loved for them to go enjoy the weather outside by now but due to earlier disappointments by a certain dam constructor 😞, we’re still indoors) 😔still a virgin in this hobby but so far am loving it 😅 If only I could have ordered my liner online from the onset my pond would be running by now *but* my other concern is cutting it for a skimmer 💭 hence I need your help please Sir
So basically am afraid it’s only a skimmer will be buying from them *plus their labor* though I would have loved to install the liner myself but it’s ok we can work together as I also need to learn more on this Thanks and sorry for my looooong query

Greg have I got a dream to share with you. I am at the beginning stages of starting a nonprofit sanctuary for a critically endangered American chicken breed. In doing this I have to write my business plan that includes set up costs. As I go through the land development I realize how critical one of your ponds is going to be to our farm. One of your waterfalls with provide a water source and bathing pools for the flock. Another waterfall will be the perfect entrance to a public area with a 60 foot shallow river that leads our guests to the picnic areas. Which surround the very deep water reverse pond at the end of the stream. The pond is surrounded by boulders and flowering trees like hibiscus to protect the public. A bridge crosses over the river right near the ponds boulders with a walk out fishing deck floating above the pond. In the river side habitats I want to grow crayfish, frogs and toads for feeding the chickens. This would be an interactive stream where guests can go catch chicken food to share with the chickens in the sanctuary. I even mapped out the wetland area and planed for water collection off the barns and houses to feed into the pond. As we do live in northern New Mexico where it is dessert area and hardly anyone thinks of ponds because water is so costly. Off in the distance you can see one of your water vases puddling for the little chickens. THANK YOU for all you teach us on your channels it is making planing easier.
But it's what's around us. It's the bush. I like the fact that it looks natural and it blends with the surroundings. The reason it costs so much is location. Some of these ponds are miles away.

How cool is this? Ponds can be installed anywhere and everywhere!
Go Team Bell. Great work. Richard said it brilliantly that the Aquascape Tribe is one big team that feels great to be a part of.
That door is a masterpiece.❤️

Thanks for the feedback, Rel1369!
It looks amazing! The dogs ears! I love them. I’m glad they didn’t clip them
My thought too, I like them more all ready.
Awesome job guys!!
Great stuff guys, fantastic work!
This pond and house is not as "spectacular"/"epic" as other pond and house in other videos. But I like this one, normal and nice like their owner. When I got retired, I would like to live off grid like them
The off grid place is awesome, wish i had huge boulders on my property like that
Love the lifestyle! My dream is to have you’ll make my pond aquascape official!!
Nice job!!
How sweet. ❤️
Awesome!!
Greg you rock
Great job mate.
like the off grid pond. how much power does it use and what pump did you use
Hi Greg, huge fan, and I hope to someday own my own aquatics company.
Love Richard... he looks like a Koala, and does great pond work
awesome
What pomp do you recomand in an offgrid pond? Thx for the content!
Was Richard an old rugby player? Love his rugby shorts!!!
Living the Aquascape Lifestyle DOWN-UNDER
A kick up the bumb.

Good day Mr Wittstock.
Any installer you recommend in Johannesburg (South Africa) please... I’ve already dug my 2.5 by 2.5 metre (width plus length) hole...on an almost a metre depth....*all by myself* 😅
I’ve already purchased a liner online as I’ve been all over our country looking for it with no luck on my specific size... have ordered an 8 by 10 metre *expected date of delivery is now approximately 38 days*
Already bought my “aqua garden” pump that caters for 6750 liter pond at pet masters ...also have a 4 metre by 4 metre liner I also found at pet master that am thinking of using for waterfall
I’ve already saved for the filter and be buying filter tomorrow “God Willing”
The hole I dug myself but now I suppose I may need a professional for a skimmer but ofcos am a very hands on lady so will be assisting when I manage to find a professional installer cos I’ve now fallen in love with this hobby by now due to people like you, Paul Cuffaro etc.
Thanks in advance for your response Sir.
Oh one more thing...
I reside in a township (hood) *NOT A SUBURB*
Just love the idea of bringing these things to our hood...
Waterscape is the way to go indeed 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
3 goldfish owner since April 2018 (currently in a tank and I would have loved for them to go enjoy the weather outside by now but due to earlier disappointments by a certain dam constructor 😞, we’re still indoors) 😔still a virgin in this hobby but so far am loving it 😅
If only I could have ordered my liner online from the onset my pond would be running by now *but* my other concern is cutting it for a skimmer 💭 hence I need your help please Sir

Cool story about a rookie contractor.
Hi do you have any qualified reseller in Sweden? I love your work!
We do not ... yet. You can still order from us in the U.S. though.
@@GregWittstockThePondGuy I get to check on your Web page. But had really needed your help in construction.
New tagline. Pondemonium - "like a kick up the bum"
Yeah!

I think you hav a jobb look up Matt’s Monster Fish
At 6:37 he starts showing the pond.
😮👍💕
The Aussies have a lot work to do for quality. They charge a arm and leg the ponds look like volcanos.
But it's what's around us. It's the bush. I like the fact that it looks natural and it blends with the surroundings. The reason it costs so much is location. Some of these ponds are miles away.
@@caewalker9276 thank you, the clients are very happy and that is priority!
How can i get certified?

This is not off grid. Like in a neighborhood. I wanna see a pond that has no water hook up within miles that's only filled by rain.
I disliked your video
But I saw the ponds and
Liked your video
Lol
Hey guys whats up
Wish I was rich.
