To keep the lake clean, it must be regularly cleaned of silt and algae. This can be done with a dirty water motor pump and a Bagermaster suction nozzle.
Yes you are, unless you have no access to a big excavator. Get yourself some beer and watch the machine quickly build you a pond! We have a little homestead here with basically no machinery. Just added a horse for logging and pulling a cart. For the big excavator jobs we have a guy who charges around 120$/h for the big excavator with the big bucket. When he is gone is is gone and I have no expensive machinery to buy and maintain.
The smaller the creature that you can show compassion for, the better person you are IMO. You're most likely an awesome person Ryan.
You're awesome! You saved the animals first, you are the bomb! I appreciate your kindness!
The pond is reflecting the green of the trees. Water has no color, but the clarity impacts its reflectivity.
Relocating frogs...priceless lol.
I searched and watched lots of pond giggling Vedios, your Vedio gave me real information. This relate to me!

#282 sub here. Your video was great. Really enjoyed it. Your pond turned out beautiful.
Looks really good. I believe the greenish color may be algae. Myth has it that depth must be at least 12 feet to get rid of it. This is awesome!
its minerals from rock and sand that make water turquoise.
Turned out awesome!
Good job
Limestone!
Nice pond it turned out well! So did it only take just over a day to dig out?
Yes, less than two days. About 10 hours with the machine running. Very sandy and a large bucket so fairly easy digging except for the water.
well when you did lower then the river next to you in sand most people can figure out water will rush in as you dig. daaaa.
Good effort, you will get more biodiversity with a pond than the wetland that was there before.
I've been this line of work for 44 years and could have saved you thousands of dollars and removed far more material for the money.
Did you catch toads so that in the evening their legs could be eaten with wine like a Frenchman? 😁
Am I crazy for wanting to buy a
Go for it!

So you know how many frogs and small animals like that die every day just by nature? Wtf are you doing dude. Props for the effort but dude really?
That operator is a money wasting full he could have graded the edges down as he was heading back in his cut I never dig a pod like this
