*Have you tried keeping fish in a mini pond before? If not, here is Cory's presentation on how easy it can be: **ruclips.net/video/SEnv3QWLIMw/видео.html*
I know it’s an old video, but as a plumber, I put unions on the same way. I put them on so that the top ring will fall with gravity into place and will tighten clockwise instead of having to work upside down; working upside down increases the chance of cross threading greatly, and as was stated in the video, you can visually see and inspect the gasket material for placement and condition.
whtieclouds can be as easy as a tub, water, moss (or whatever plant you prefer) and a sponge filter. that's what im running currently and it works great!
I have been using one of these tubs as an indoor guppy pond for 13 years. I cut a notch in the rim to hang a small HOB on it with an intake sponge. I got a round pane of glass at a hobby shop to put on top as a lid. It has worked great all these years with no leaks and hasn't crashed since it was first cycled.
I was ridiculously excited to get this notification. I've been waiting impatiently for this video since I saw the teaser photo on the members tab last week. Additional membership perk: giving me something to look forward to!
This video was THE BEST easy pond creative idea EVER!!!! Inexpensive, simple and super cool invention!!!! Totally LOVING the simplistic and easy to follow instructions!!! Not only is Dean The Master Breeder, but he is truly ingeniously funny and humble!!!
This video came out at the perfect time, I've been looking at totes for a week now. I was going to grab a small garbage bin and toss a sponge filter into it, but this looks much more elegant.
This is amazing my autistic daughter loves looking at fish in pond I'm definitely going to make a couple of these for her to be entertained can't wait for all the hugs after
I've been watching this channel for few years off and on and the whole time I thought you guys were somewhere else in the country and because of this video I figured out you guys are in Edmonds🤦♂️....which is like an hour from me or 30 min from work...
This is amazing. I like Dean's DYI a lot. Not only because often there are ideas I didn't see before but also due to how esthetical finished project looks like
OMG, ive watched so many videos of Dean and his breeding room etc. This though, was amazing to me. And also, thanks so much for allowing us to watch you at work from the comfort of YOUR living room :)
I really wish there was more footage of the original bucket working to see how the air uplift system works. Without knowing more about how those work its hard to imagine how the pvc pipe works with just a dry fit
There are lots of videos showing the mechanics of an airlift pump in you tube, even using 4” inches pipes. The height is limited though but I believe is quite cheaper to run compared to a water pump in general.
Yeah thanks for the comment, I'm new to the hobby and completely clueless to how that system is gonna filter water. At least now I know it's called an air uplift system so I can do more research. What is the forever air stone thing he put on the end of the black tube called and where do i get one though? He just called it "the thing that is the thing", and I don't think it's in the list of required items in the description. So I'm just a little dumbstruck right now. 🤔🤔🤔🤨😐
@@joshuaowen4290 it's the never clog air stone that zyiss makes. Sold on aquarium coops website. I have actually had one clog before. But in a fairly grubby tank. Lots of big cichlids. They are nice because they are weighted and you can adjust the bubble flow by tightening or loosing it up. Worth the extra dollar or two to buy.
not 100% but pretty sure you put the air stone not all the way to the bottom of the pipe so the air bubbles only have one way to go (up) and not out through the sponge in the tank. With the air pulling its way up and out it brings water with it. With this, there is a syphon type action with the water and thus you get the flowing system. The fittings at the bottom as Dean said, "this would be a glued fit" but for the quick sake of showing the video - he did not glue it. The other piece that screws to tighten works as intended. General rule of 5-10x the tank volume for turnover/flow rate for the tank. So for the 15gal in the video you would want at least a 75-150 GPH (Gallons Per Hour) personally i'd lean on the higher side and tune it down rather than not have enough flow.
This is the sort of thing you cannot do right on the first try, it takes trial and error. This guy just saved me tons of headache by sharing his expertise, thank you!

Personally id lean on the higher side and scale the GPH down than to not have enough flow to make the system work
I had something similar set up but with a madden filter wall and pump so it was all internal. It worked, but your idea is super nice for max tank space! Love it, thank you for sharing Dean & Cory!
Awesome Project! I Love the interaction of Dean with everyone, it's like "You want me to make a video well Everyone will be in it even Camera Man Jimmy 💖. Great Job Dean and Thank You for the Info Aquarium Co-Op!
And now I have yet another fishy project to do. This is so cool and I'm excited to give it a try! I've wanted to do a pond but it gets cold here in the winter. Now I can give it a try.
You have to message Dean, and find out what dates/times, and which airline he likes. Last I heard he's booked through August 2022. He did say if someone buys his airline/hotel accommodations/food he would go🤷♂️
@@Lazy_Fish_Keeper 😆 I decided to make one myself and kinda messed up some how. 🤣 Dean really is a Master. 1. My little air pump wasn't strong enough. 2. I made the pvc too long and already glued the union and pvc together. 3. I added a adapter so I could fit the ½" pvc to the bulkhead elbow and realized after pvc cementing the adapter that the ½" pvc it would've probably fit anyway... I did kinda buy 2 of everything except the adapter and muck bucket... but I think I'll just do some precision cuts to my "master piece" and get it to the way Dean has his setup. 🙃 Don't use ½" pvc, airstone won't fit.
you need to send THE MASTER on a world tour to show the world how such small things make a VERY BIG DIFFERENCE ... you can also tag along to help with making note for him and carrying his spectacles
That has to be theeee most helpful video I have seen so far for ponds that will fit just about any where … thank you much …please keep putting video likes more often 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
These do it yourself videos are great.Quite well done as well. Fun, educational and introduces more ideas for those of us who have not implemented various techiques. thanks for yet another one...
Your heat wave Dean, is a normal temp for us during the summers here in northern California areas.🌵🥵 Thank God for air conditioners!! Wish you'd put out MORE vids Dean, you're a Hoot to watch, and learn from... I think we are close to the same age too... Somewhere between 40 and death... 🤣 Keep on teaching us big guy!! 🥳 P. S. I'm a little bit High too, and it's from joints.. 😏😅🥳
14:06 - Forever airstone my foot! I had about 10 of these and the felt clogs easily. I threw them in the trash where they belong. I'm back to using ceramic airstones, which can easily be cleaned in a bleach solution and renewed.
Love this video ❤️❤️❤️ I've been wanting to add a water feature in my apartment patio for two years this video finally inspired me to make my own muck bucket pond I didn't use PVC and air stone set up though
so a few questions what size hole saw did he use i can’t find exactly 1 inch in hole saws only 7/8 1 3/8 etc and what type of glue would i use im guessing a type of cement in the same area as the pvc but which exactly?

Thank you!
I can't wait to give it a try!
Used to breed feeder guppies in a large planter for my turtle food
Hi there Cory How are you
Does adjusting power to the airline adjust flow?
50 bucks and a plane ticket to meet Dean and have a custom built pond by him??? Sold!!
No! I get him first!
I’ll throw in an extra $50 if he can get the airline through first try again 😂
Ikr, especially since he’ll have to fly to Australia for mine 😂😂
I’d happily invite him to where I live in Cyprus and give him a holiday, too. Holiday villa included! Dean, let me know! 😉
right?
This guy gives off some really wholesome dad vibes. Such a cool guy. Would make an excellent mentor.
Dean is the best I could listen to him talk fish all day
Dean is quite the pleasure to watch, what a joyful person that just appreciates the little things in life!

This is an awesome idea! Shout out to Dean's wife for letting them make this in their living room for our viewing pleasure \m/
The chemistry between Cory and Dean is amazing. This come through in each of their videos!!
Any content with Dean is great, but this may be my new favorite.
Was literally thinking about how I’m going to overwinter my tub-pond white clouds today so this was very well timed! I love an ingenious Dean solution
whtieclouds can be as easy as a tub, water, moss (or whatever plant you prefer) and a sponge filter. that's what im running currently and it works great!
White Clouds , love to watch them. One of my favorites.
I'm so confused is there no pump or is this a siphon
I’m in Sacramento, California, and just added a small heater to overwinter my guppies, danios, and whiteclouds.
I have been using one of these tubs as an indoor guppy pond for 13 years. I cut a notch in the rim to hang a small HOB on it with an intake sponge. I got a round pane of glass at a hobby shop to put on top as a lid. It has worked great all these years with no leaks and hasn't crashed since it was first cycled.
Nice!! The glass is a great idea
The combination of fish keeping wisdom and diy is just... a joy. Thank you!
Dean is a national treasure

can you do an update showing the filter pipe working away?
clip in the intro of it running

hello, I'm from Indonesia🇲🇨🇲🇨, I like the explanation, easy to understand
🙏
I Love to watch Dean make things. He makes things so neat and Tidy and everything goes together and the projects always look Great 😊
I have no idea how Dean was able to thread that airline. Amazing!
Dean's new drill is working well!
Dean...what an absolute legend! Feeding that airline tubing through the hole was SMOOOOOOTH my guy.
The bits, the camaraderie, the editing & transparency into your world with viewers is so cool!
Lol.....love it Dean HOLE IN ONE.....TIP DRILL EXPERT.......I'm pretty sure he amazed everyone.....just what I needed for my balcony thank guys....
That airline trick was 🤯! True sign of a master.
" In the beautiful outdoors (Bird miraculously starts singing)"😀👍.
Love the union idea. I have to build one of these.
Cheers,

OMG, ive watched so many videos of Dean and his breeding room etc. This though, was amazing to me. And also, thanks so much for allowing us to watch you at work from the comfort of YOUR living room :)
I love how dean has so much madness going on when hes making something but he still knows what hes doing
Dean's sage knowledge of the week: "Don't drill your fingers, it hurts."
Just can't get enough of Dean. Cory you should have a line of aquarium products called Dean's choice. I bet it would sell like crazy.
We need The Dean's List!!!!
Loving all the videos with Dean in, definitely my favourite fish channel out to watch!
Not even members only content but still worth it.
I'm gonna have to try this next summer on my patio. Thanks aqaurium coop for another great video. I've been a viewer for 3-4 years now.

The sound edit at the piece of air tube going into the hole is fire.
What do you attach the airline tubing to ? After you go to the airstone is it supposed to go to an air pump ? And what pushes the water up the PVC ?
That's what I'm saying??
it works the same way a sponge filter works, the air bubbles coming up the inside of the tube pull water up with it.

It's so awesome to see the master at work. I was just watching a video yesterday and you mentioned he doesn't make many videos on HIS channel
Dude! That's genius. Dang, what an awesome video. Seriously appreciate it man. Really, thanks for the advice.

Thank you! I’ve been wanting to create a portable diy pond. I see a new project in store for the future!
Really neat. I'll use this as a fun pond project for my toddler who loves fish!
This is ingenious. I am making a shopping list as I watch it. Can not wait to get started.
Man you guys are awesome , love the video . The world needs more kind souls like you guys
I was hoping to see the volume of water from the lift tube but man what a cool design
Me too, I'm curious how good the flow is, splashing, and noise.
@@Yonatan24 ditto
You can see it running during the intro explanation, starting with clips at 0:13
It has terrific flow I loved the first one I made so much I made another. I was surprised at the amount of flow.
@@lukeo85 I'm a little confused, what causes the water to flow through the pipe ? Just the air stone ?
Dean is such a joy to watch 💯
I think bending the pipe was financially beneficial if you want to save those extra bux, and it got me the idea of bending it from both sides.
Someone get Dean a plane ticket to Toronto! I need his mini pond expertise.
Been waiting for this one for what seems forever.
You have to message Dean, and find out what dates/times, and which airline he likes.
Last I heard he's booked through August 2022.
He did say if someone buys his airline/hotel accommodations/food he would go🤷♂️

😆 I decided to make one myself and kinda messed up some how. 🤣

i like this ideal. I'm going to make this tomorrow. He's is a perfectionist.
How do you get the water to flow through the tube?
Yes where does the bulk head go??
So just to clarify this set up doesn't need an air pump? That tube pulls in enough air? How do u start the flow shop vac?
Always a treat to watch Dean.
This guy is a pure genius. Dean has outdone himself again although I would be lazy and settle this elbows with a little less flow
I'm new to the hobby and probably will never make one of these but this was fascinating to watch.
Dean. Your a class above. Can't explain it. You're just coool!
What a cool idea! Would have loved to see a final shot of it in action but guess it was getting too hot 😂

The way u speak so lovable.
I LOVE Black tubing!!!
Love this video ❤️❤️❤️
I've been wanting to add a water feature in my apartment patio for two years this video finally inspired me to make my own muck bucket pond
I didn't use PVC and air stone set up though
Did you use another filter or did you just go for a filterless setup?
I love Deans old man madness methods
Love yours videos, greetings from Colombia!!!
I have one of these buckets and now I know what I need to do with it!!!

That pipe trick was genius
Dean is like that dorky cool uncle everybody needs!
The image quality looks so crisp
Jimmy is a video *GOD*
i have one of these on my apartment balcony. Just with a sponge filter. Lots of water hyacinth.
U guys r the real deal I live in an apartment so perfect 4 me thanks an Dean I'd pay to have u do it
This is my new favorite Dean video ❤️
so a few questions what size hole saw did he use i can’t find exactly 1 inch in hole saws only 7/8 1 3/8 etc
and what type of glue would i use im guessing a type of cement in the same area as the pvc but which exactly?
Never knew pvc could be bent like that. Big thumbs up.
Ive been wanting to do something like this but i didnt know how thanks dean!
Its always educational to watch your videos. ❤ is there a video how how it runs?
Your editor is SO GOOD these videos are hilarious and they know what parts to highlight the best! xD
Were going into the kitchen to cook some pvc
RUclips commercial for Weber grills and its was the grill opening and rolling smoke.
I laughed.
