This for me is the best and favourite design, layout, depth, choice of fish and quantity and I've watched 100s of your videos! Maybe a little more taller plants or smaller trees but otherwise fantastic and honestly I'll say it again the best of the lot!
Good evening Greg hope your having an amazing day. Wow this is absolutely spectacular. I absolutely love this job. Omg the design is absolutely beautiful. I love every part of this job their are so many different amazing places to enjoy. Fantastic job 👏 have a fantastic week Greg and ill see you next video. Blessings to you and your beautiful family
@@diachilders3271 Yes, you can also consider other deterrents like decoys and motion activated lights and sounds. Here's some of the products we offer for predator control. > www.aquascapeinc.com/predator-control
Some spend $$$ on cars, boats, RV's, others on a nice pool or pond, I totally would go for this...If I had the money. Well spend and very beautiful. Well done!
Wow that pond is unbelievable. Only thing I would of done different is build up a rock wall in the back for a higher waterfall. Everything else is perfect.
I have a question would it be possible to make it a saltwater pond so you could not only have fish but corals n invertebrates I know clams clean the water along with many others you could even grow mangroves in the wetland area?.
What is the minimum space requirement for a swim pond? Is it possible to build a standard pool sized one in the backyard of a house on a 5k-7k sqft lot? (Asking for us folks in California with smaller lots)
They do come in all sizes, no different than a swimming pool. And swim ponds, such as this one, can be customized to fit your space perfectly! The fifth link in Greg's description can lead you to find a CAC near you to construct one as well.
I just put in pool in in Ankeny Iowa actually. And yes to try and manage water quality is a busy task. Our task is to keep the green stuff away and they have an area just for it.
It's personal preference mostly but it being biologically balanced it wouldn't be harmful, of course having an excess of such products on is not recommended either.
We are in Sweden, different climate, but have lots of golden orfe in our swimming pond. It's partly filled with brackish seawater which these fish love :)
This pond was similar priced to a 18x40 swimming pool. I know the smaller you go the less they cost. Neighbor has one that is 15x15 and it was very reasonably priced as a landscaping feature
Super nice and wish I could have one. The guy says that he don't know why people don't do those instead of swimming pools. It's becaus3 most normal working g class people don't have hundreds of thousands of $$$ to put into that. I just had a 40x60 inground pool put in for $45'000. That same size for o e of these po is would probably be around $250,000
It was similar priced to pool we had bid out. Pool itself is less expensive but it's all the extra things that's you have to do with exterior of pools that really add up. We wouldn't trade our pond for pool now that we've had for 3 years!
The cost was similar to 18'x40swimming pool. Much more enjoyable to spend time around and no pool equipment or chemicals to deal with! Would recommend it any day
You mean like every lake, river and ocean? We didn’t evolve swimming in Chlorine! I shower when I get out of a pool or hot tub. After a Rec Pond I air dry!
Several of my neighbors have ponds, they all are all different shapes and sizes, each as enjoyable as the other, definitely don't have to spend a lot of $$ to be able to enjoy the water
The "Sound" is so relaxing 😊❤️
This is the definition of a dream pond. Simply amazing.
Really love how you did the falls. Looks fantastic. You really have an eye for design.
That is absolutely stunning watching those fish swim under the rocks is just priceless
I bet the maker of the pond put a price on it
This for me is the best and favourite design, layout, depth, choice of fish and quantity and I've watched 100s of your videos! Maybe a little more taller plants or smaller trees but otherwise fantastic and honestly I'll say it again the best of the lot!
We had a blast building this one! Glad you like it! 😁
Real nice. Beats a "pool look" any day. And it's real swimming.
Holy Moly!
Spectacular swim pond! WOW!
Love Ankeny have family there! Such a pretty design. The sound is amazing. Love all the fish. I would never leave the back yard!
Just gorgeous.
Man, I love his waterfall shirt.
This is on the better rec ponds I’ve seen on here. Awesome size and water quality
Thanks! We are super proud of this one and it is always fun to go back and visit it!
Very nice. Many hours of enjoyment for all.
Awesome thanks for sharing
Super cool! I love the size and the design!
Thanks!
So beautiful I want one

Thanks for watching and supporting!👊
Great job.
Nobody knew I had a pond behind my house either...they were amazed when they came into the yard!
Now that's a koi pond! ❤
"Most of them have names, we don't know those names but they have them." 😂
wow amazing look
Awesome!
Has everything 😅 I want two! Best of Best!!!❤
Wow, what dream ponds are made of. Just the right size.
This is how I would like a swimming pool, in Australia we have a company that does this too.
Hi, not sure if it was said in the video but I wonder how you keep the fish safe from predators like herons?
Idk how they do but I do know that using a pond dye helps hide the fish from overhead predators. Netting is also an option.
@@diachilders3271 Yes, you can also consider other deterrents like decoys and motion activated lights and sounds. Here's some of the products we offer for predator control. > www.aquascapeinc.com/predator-control
@@diachilders3271 Netting is an opinion if you don't mind destroying the aesthetic nature of a pond. There are better solutions.
I wish in these videos they specified pump sizes/ number of pumps. It'd just help understand what goes into these awesome features.
So jealous this is awesome 👌
Sure is a lot of algae in this swim pond. Would you recommend certain types of fish, snails, etc., to help reduce it?
It’s just what happens, it’s in the sun all day it’s gonna grow algae no matter water.
they say it takes a year or two for the ecosystem to even out to reduce the amount of algae (or at least some kinds of it)...
Majority of the algae is concentrated in the wetland filter where the plants around absorb the excess nutrients.
Cool! What kind of fish? Do you have to restock?
I agree that algae will always grow but that many fish without a lot of plants is a pretty heavy bioload.
Gorgeous
Now this is a pond
Greg have a question how do you figure out how much fish for a pond ?
Wow, beautiful. Wonder what the price tag would be for a water feature build like this on my Ranch in Texas. Have a great week everyone.
Some spend $$$ on cars, boats, RV's, others on a nice pool or pond, I totally would go for this...If I had the money. Well spend and very beautiful. Well done!
I want one kinda like that but with a waterfall I can jump off of with a hidden cave.
Wow that pond is unbelievable. Only thing I would of done different is build up a rock wall in the back for a higher waterfall. Everything else is perfect.
❤ Absolutely Beautiful ❤😊
7:53 😂😂😂😂
If I had something like tis although I would want koi or huge goldfish I would want bass and blue gill I am itching to have a cool pond like this
How is the waste treatment done in these ponds?
Can you wear sunblock or sunscreen while swimming?
I have a question would it be possible to make it a saltwater pond so you could not only have fish but corals n invertebrates I know clams clean the water along with many others you could even grow mangroves in the wetland area?.
Very nice!!!!
Beautiful pond! although I’m not crazy about the sound of running water. Too much noise, I prefer a quiet lake.
Love it
It's quite stunning. Doesn't even look the slightest man made at all.
I'm currently in the design phase of my 1/2 acre pond, and I need some information. How do I contact you?
What is the minimum space requirement for a swim pond? Is it possible to build a standard pool sized one in the backyard of a house on a 5k-7k sqft lot? (Asking for us folks in California with smaller lots)

Which ones taste the best? Do the different colors have different flavor?
How do you keep the herons away? That platform is a perfect fishing spot for predators.
i thought these were only for millionaires who blow money on stocking fish, i never thought of a swim pond! This is incredible.
Beautiful pond, but I wonder what the electric bill is running all those pumps?
I do pools and it's hard enough to manage that. I couldn't imagine maintaining the water in something like this...
I just put in pool in in Ankeny Iowa actually. And yes to try and manage water quality is a busy task. Our task is to keep the green stuff away and they have an area just for it.
Me too
I love all your ponds there all beautiful
How did you make those pavers float???
They were placed on top on some rocks with the tops and bottom cut out to be level.
How does a rec pond handle people having lotions or hair treatments? Do people need to shower first, like in a pool?
It's personal preference mostly but it being biologically balanced it wouldn't be harmful, of course having an excess of such products on is not recommended either.
Did you have to cut out alot of errs?
Feasible to run all the pumps and such off solar rather than typical electric draw? Either way, that's a fantastic feature.
💯🔥💙👍
so, is that Mr. D. R. Horton?
what is the cost on average I am interested in having one put in
Similar in cost to a 18x40pool
Much more enjoyable year round!
My first thought What about birds eating fish. That's a gorgeous pond though
do the fish stay in the pond when it freezes? Or do they have an indoor tank?
They stay in pond year round
What if u stand on a rock and it pierces the liner?
Aqua landscape life style
Besides Koi and Goldfish, what other fish may be introduced into a swim pond like this without causing an issue for the balance of the swim pool?
We are in Sweden, different climate, but have lots of golden orfe in our swimming pond. It's partly filled with brackish seawater which these fish love :)
❤
A Blue Heron has entered the chat.
How much does it cost for a beautiful pond like this? Will the price drop a lot if use only 1/4 of the rock to save money? Thank you
This pond was similar priced to a 18x40 swimming pool. I know the smaller you go the less they cost. Neighbor has one that is 15x15 and it was very reasonably priced as a landscaping feature
@@sethmoulton9341 - we’re not afraid of the price. How much is the larger one?
Dope
@1:07 - "can't do that with a swimming pool."
Why not?? Are the fish holding up the rock??
Super nice and wish I could have one. The guy says that he don't know why people don't do those instead of swimming pools. It's becaus3 most normal working g class people don't have hundreds of thousands of $$$ to put into that. I just had a 40x60 inground pool put in for $45'000.

We wouldn't trade our pond for pool now that we've had for 3 years!
@@sethmoulton9341 but can i get an estimate of the total cost i hope to one day have one
@@sethmoulton9341yes but how much
I only wonder what is the cost of this. How much are these builders?
The cost was similar to 18'x40swimming pool.
Much more enjoyable to spend time around and no pool equipment or chemicals to deal with!
Would recommend it any day
@@sethmoulton9341 would you please tell us the price for the 18x40s? Thanks
It looks like there is a lot of green slime. I feel like if you're not watching your step. You will bust your ass.
How do you keep snakes out
Have not had any snakes in pond, turtles though come and go throughout the year!
And frogs.
How much did that cost?
Pond cost very similar to what the pool we priced out.
Decided on pond for the 365 days a year enjoyment!
I need help with mine
That’s at least 70
Tetras wow
What'll you feed them ? 🐠🐠🐠
Aquascape premium staple fish food. 40lb bags.. go thru 3-4per season!
When one has FU money and knows how to enjoy it 👍🏼
Does anyone have an idea of what something like this costs 🤷🏼♂️
Who needs a pool when you can swim in fish shit!
Don’t want to be gross but , what about the fish poop?
I’m sure the water is filtered but wouldn’t it be along the bottom and get stirred up?
You mean like every lake, river and ocean?
We didn’t evolve swimming in Chlorine! I shower when I get out of a pool or hot tub. After a Rec Pond I air dry!
someone give me some money so i can put this in my yard
So a pool with fish
Swimming around in feces doesn't seem all that tempting :D
Would have been really cool if you had done a saltwater pond!
No chance of snakes moving in.
I don’t know. Lots of places to make the mistake of diving in head first and going serious damage. No?
I liked my own comment
lol, I liked your comment too. Love from New Zealand.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Bro like that? 😂😂😂 I liked your comment too
Legendary comment. You deserve my like
Work for work?
Cutting out every millisecond of silence when the guy is talking makes this video feel horribly unprofessional and just unpleasant to listen to.
Can you swim in it?
I love it!
a pool is immensely cheaper, some people like to have variety, nice yard, weekend trips, still affordable
That was sailerville 😂 partied there many times
Why is there a cut every other word. Jeez.
Aqua scape. Where if you’re not a millionaire, buck off
