Fly Rivers are true Turtle Angels with those big flippers. Titan's pond is heavenly and can't wait to see his little tracks as he begins to explore the summer getaway pond!
It would be cool to build a greenhouse over a pond like that and have a year-round tropical getaway in the north. That's always been my plan if I have the land and money someday.
Wow, Ed! That is just beautiful! Sooooo cool. You guys make a masterpiece pond like that in a weekend. My envy of the water features you construct never ends!
@@EdThePondProfessor I’d like to thank you. For the great content and how u mastered your craft. It’s amazing too watch…you should have way more followers then this….sooo thank you.
Good afternoon Ed hope your having an amazing day. Wow it turned out so good like always. Absolutely amazing. The turtle is going to love it what an. Awesome space for it to live more naturally. Fantastic job looks awesome. Hope you have an amazing weekend and ill see you next video like always.
You can float watersprite, but you can't its lookalike wisteria. you probably have wisteria thereif it has been rooted in substrate. Watersprite roots rot and decay if rooted. Wisteria is a stemmed plant with splayed eaves with crenelations like a maple leaf or oak leaf, where as watersprite has a root base with a central drown of fronds, and at each V in the leaf it can sprout a daughter plant.
Looks great!! I do remember like 2 years ago kamp kenens Fly River turtle did escape from his front pond by climbing over the small fence he built so you might want to make your barrier a little taller!
Yeah they will travel Ed!!! Careful they absolutely can climb surprisingly well and they tend to travel especially in heavy downpours....I think lots of observation and you should start to get a idea if you are going to have a problem or not I also would think if he does go for a hike your dogs are going show you where he's at...lol idk there certainly more experienced people to consult you and no dout Titan is in good hands!!! Great job Ed that's a really cool pond!!! Not a ton of ponds out there with beach areas
Thanks for your feedback! He’s been in the pond for a month now and I haven’t seen any signs of him out of the pond(No tracks on the beach) Kenan will be at my house in a couple days so I’ll consult with him.
Would love to see an update on titan's pond and the hobbit pond next year! It looks so good! It's also nice seeing Dustin! As always, you and the other guys did a good job!
@@EdThePondProfessor great 👍 i guess they feast on the algea instead like in nature. Forgot for a while about how awesome peace of nature your ponds are 🙂
Love this feature. Have Greg help is like watching alumni football.lol. Joking of course. I would love to see how you tide the rocks to the plants. String? Line? Neat idea
@@EdThePondProfessor thank you for responding I know you are a super busy guy so that you responded is awesome keep up the good work and have a great day
That’s an amazing habitat! but please put a cage around it! He could easily get out and things can get in. I know you guys have something figured out already
I’ve never had a FlyRiver Turtle so I’m open to suggestions, He’s been in the pond for a month and I haven’t seen any signs of him out of the water(Tracks on the Beach) I’m not concerned about predators because of our Herd Protector dogs…… Kenan will be at my house next week and I’ll discuss it with him.
Great question! Yes, We have an overflow to control excess water and we use a few different options to add water to our features. The first is simple, We manually add water as necessary with a standard garden hose. Another option we routinely use is a simple float valve(similar to what’s used on a toilet tank) it can be connected to an outdoor spigot or irrigation system. The final method is more costly, we’ll create a large underground rainwater harvesting tank to capture rainwater which is then used in the water feature, these tanks can hold 10’s of Thousands of gallons according to different project requirements.
Would Greg be open to taking a western pond turtle that’s in need of a home. I believe it’s an endangered and if so he’d be the best person to help the little guy out.
@@EdThePondProfessor I believe it’s a male, he’s healthy and super active but it need someone who can help grow his population better than I can. I know your profession isn’t taking in animals in need but I believe he’d be getting himself a big treat as having one of you pond guys take care of him
Thanks for your concern and feedback! I have 3 Livestock protector dogs, they do an Incredible job of keeping potential predators away from our property.
Kenan is definitely the man to talk to. He had one get out a couple years ago. He thought someone had snuck in and snatched it but it turned out that the little bugger had climbed that fence around the front yard pond and then scampered into the backyard, climbed over a much taller fence and jumped into one of his big man made ponds. He went months thinking someone had stole it and then one day, while he and another guy (maybe brian barczyk) were checking in on them, they came across him. For a turtle with flippers, they're still apparently pretty agile.
You’re very beautiful turtles I love them turtles I think it’s my favorite turtle biggest one I ever seen Jeremy Wade caught it on river monsters. But that is my favorite turtle they are cute
That turtle thinks he has died and gone to heaven. 😁😁😁😁😁 I have been in Cullman Alabama visiting with my daughter and grandson. We went to the sportsman lake park. They have pond with geese, ducks, fish and turtles. You can buy food to feed them so we walked out to the end of the pier, put money in the little feed station and started feeding them. My daughter was freaking out how many turtles came up to the pier. She has been there many times but never noticed all the turtles. We went to the concession stand and got an ice cream and cups of feed. We went back to the pier and as soon as we stepped on it a turtle about a foot an half wide maybe two foot wide heard us step on the pier and started racing us to the end to get some food. We were laughing so hard. The turtle was going as fast as he could to meet us at the end of pier. I have never seen a turtle swim so fast. 😂😂😂😂😂 y'all are awesome. God bless
Hi Ed have a question. A lot of pond builders are using Rocks and gravel in the ponds. My pond included. Can rocks in pond give you PH problems like high readings? I know limestone does raise the PH I was wondering if any other rocks do the same.
Yes, Rocks can alter your pH where are you located? Have you checked your source water? Do you get any runoff from rain into your pond? You can check your rocks by pouring a weak acid over them(Vinegar) if you see lots of bubbles and foam the acid is reacting with Calcium and Magnesium Carbonates releasing Carbon Dioxide, if this occurs it will impact your water chemistry……
@@EdThePondProfessor Thanks for getting back to me. There is no water runoff from anywhere. I am located in Long Island NY. The pond is finished. The pond has 11 tons of rocks and 8 tons of gravel. I have a wetland filter. I cannot test the boulders that are in the pond already but I could take some of the gravel and test it with the vinegar. My night time PH is 7.2 - 7.5. It is in the day the PH goes up to 8.5 - 8.8. The KH is around 73 - 80. The pond has aerators also. The large aerator I was wondering if that would raise the PH in the day because of the Co2 exchange. I had steady PH for months around 7.2 - 7.5 but this of month of July something changed those readings. The pond is 3 months old. Could it be because it is a new pond and the algae on the rocks are growing? All the other tests are fine. The pond is crystal clear. We did have 3 days of very heavy rain in the beginning of July. 6 inches of rain. I cannot pin point the spike in the PH in the daytime. I have plenty of air in the pond 3 aerators 4 waterfalls. Just don't know. I do not want to put any chemicals into the pond which could even make it worse. The one thing it is a steady night PH at 7.2 - 7.5 and 8.5 - 8.8 readings. Any ideas?
such a great pond for him but not suitable for the full lifespan or growth of the turtle. pignose are native here and this is maybe a 3rd of the size I'd build due to being a very active and large species but the design is perfect besides the slip of the sand bank which doesn't really matter unless breeding. if breeding in the future which I think should be a priority for anyone with one of these guys, they require a much steeper sandbank. as they lay their eggs on a steep sand bank and when the big rains come in the wet season the eggs roll in to the water which triggers hatching. but yeah I'd definitely plant a similar pond on the largest scale possible and try to acquire more of these amazing turtles along with archer fish and other non aggressive Australian native fish such as rainbow fish. consider checking out a flyriver turtle farm where breeding stock are kept in large partly covered dams definitely an absolutely stunning scape for any Australian turtle
Thanks for your input!!! I agree! This small pond was just a way for us to get him outside during the summer months, Our water temps are not conducive for this species, I would love to build a larger indoor feature for Titan in the Future……
Do you think you will ever get a capybara? They are semi aquatic and they are herbivores, they also do really well socializing with other animals, and there's some breeders in the US
We’ve travelled the World designing and Building water features! We have Distribution in Australia along with a great group of Certified Contractors that can assist you with your needs…… What city and/or region of Australia are you located in?
Absolutely!!! We have 3 dogs that patrol our property to protect our animals from potential predators. They do a great job and I we haven’t had any problems with our Livestock.
Keep in mind if you have raccoons or opossums, I wouldn't keep a baby fly river outside in an open pond that's not deep mmmh. It's a gorgeous pond but mmmh
We have 3 Livestock protector dogs, I’ve seen our Alpha - Juno, kill Opossums that attempted to get our chickens, since we’ve had this team I haven’t seen any predators on our property, Chickens and all of their eggs have been OK and our Dwarf Goats, horses, cats, etc….. have all been safe. Thanks for your concern!
@@EdThePondProfessor So I would have to put it underneath the mat?I have three skimmers.One for the waterfall,bog,and one to circulate a couple ofareas.It is a rec. pond with fish.Thank you
@@EdThePondProfessor well. So far it's been a scorcher! if it's 🔥blazing hot here in the midwest 🥵 I know it's gotta be burning down there as well! 😅 don't be surprised if October rolls around and he's still there. 😏 P.s if we make it out of August in these extreme temperatures I honestly think it'll be consistent in September as well. Depending where you're at but so far, no such thing as mild temps this summer. it's hot everywhere! 😳
Won't the tadpoles eat the fish because I have a pond and there were a lots of tadpoles, I think they eat the fish alive. Can you please recommend me some fish which eat tadpoles. I can't put any water plants 😕 because frogs lay eggs in the pond. Please help me Well I'm Sri lankan and there are lots of frogs 🐸 in here .
I’ve never seen tadpoles eating fish??? All of Tadpoles in North America would be considered “grazers” meaning they will graze/feed on algae and periphyton which grows on aquatic plants, rocks, sticks, etc…… Frog tadpoles will be eaten by a wide variety of fish, large aquatic insects, water snakes, etc….. But if they’re Toad tadpoles, nothing will eat them because they secrete a toxin which protects them from potential predators.
My fist pond fish were carps I had six of them and now I have only two of them left, I read a documentary which It said that when carp eat tadpoles dies because the tadpoles eat the internal body.
Make that pod raccoon proof! See what happened to Kenan when his electric fence transformer failed! Two juvenile raccoons killed and partially ate over 10 of his turtles or various endangered species. "(
So are you ever going to go back and fix flairs pond (your company is not legit ) you go to big you-tubers and get your 5 minutes of fame and then when there ponds start to break in a week or month and you (fix) it and falls apart again so much for good quality. By the way don’t charge over a grand for a repair job that you know won’t work
It’s up to Flair to call us and let us know there’s a problem. We stand behind everything we build! We will happily return to fix anything that has been done wrong by our team. If however we determine that the Problem is due to other factors such as lack of maintenance, damage to any of the equipment, extensive power outages, etc…… We will happily repair it but we will not warranty that because it was not a problem due to the products we installed or our installation practices. If you’ve ever owned an Ecosystem such as Fish tank, Animal Enclosure, pond or even a Small garden you’d understand that it takes routine maintenance to keep it working properly. Gardens require weed control and additional water, Ponds require water, cleaning of pump intakes, bacterial treatments, etc…. Fish tanks need water changes and monitoring of nutrient levels, As you can see nothing is maintenance free, I don’t know what’s happening with Flair’s Pond but I haven’t heard from him so I can’t answer that question……
I ❤️ MY JOB
every time I hear Greg's voice I know it's gonna be a good time! lol.
I ❤️ UR JOB
Would you take in a endangered western pond turtle? I’m hoping you’d have a better chance of getting him/her to mate to grow their population.
Greg I love it more than you LOL
It don’t look like he got much room to swim around

Ed the ponds have an overflow to keep them at a steady level. What tops the pond up when there isn't enough water? It uses untreated tap water?
Great question!
Yes,
We have an overflow to control excess water and we use a few different options to add water to our features.
The first is simple,
We manually add water as necessary with a standard garden hose.
Another option we routinely use is a simple float valve(similar to what’s used on a toilet tank) it can be connected to an outdoor spigot or irrigation system.
The final method is more costly, we’ll create a large underground rainwater harvesting tank to capture rainwater which is then used in the water feature, these tanks can hold 10’s of Thousands of gallons according to different project requirements.

This is a 500 gallon pond and we’ll need to reevaluate as he gets larger……

My fist pond fish were carps I had six of them and now I have only two of them left, I read a documentary which It said that when carp eat tadpoles dies because the tadpoles eat the internal body.
Please send a water test kit and pond kit. If you order a water kit or pond kit it cost triple the amount you sell In Sri lnaka.
Be careful, water lilies can be toxic for turtles
Thanks for the Tip!
Keep an eye on racoons, they wiped out kenans ponds
I will!!!
I have 3 Livestock protector dogs, they don’t allow anything on our property!

Make that pod raccoon proof! See what happened to Kenan when his electric fence transformer failed! Two juvenile raccoons killed and partially ate over 10 of his turtles or various endangered species. "(
Absolutely!
I rely on Our 3 Livestock Protector Dogs for predator control, they do a great job!
Beyond jealous.
Thanks for watching!!!
You’re not worried about a bird or raccoon eating it out there?
So are you ever going to go back and fix flairs pond (your company is not legit ) you go to big you-tubers and get your 5 minutes of fame and then when there ponds start to break in a week or month and you (fix) it and falls apart again so much for good quality. By the way don’t charge over a grand for a repair job that you know won’t work
It’s up to Flair to call us and let us know there’s a problem.
We stand behind everything we build!
We will happily return to fix anything that has been done wrong by our team.
If however we determine that the Problem is due to other factors such as lack of maintenance, damage to any of the equipment, extensive power outages, etc……
We will happily repair it but we will not warranty that because it was not a problem due to the products we installed or our installation practices.
If you’ve ever owned an Ecosystem such as Fish tank, Animal Enclosure, pond or even a Small garden you’d understand that it takes routine maintenance to keep it working properly.
Gardens require weed control and additional water,
Ponds require water, cleaning of pump intakes, bacterial treatments, etc….
Fish tanks need water changes and monitoring of nutrient levels,
As you can see nothing is maintenance free,
I don’t know what’s happening with Flair’s Pond but I haven’t heard from him so I can’t answer that question……
