Pandacat 666 i think pool would be correct, wouldn’t it? A pool of water is just a small body of water, usually the product of rainfall.

And literally the design is to be similar, except I'm going for a circular design vs rectangle... Omg I love this, it almost exactly what I was looking to do... 💜💜💜💜💜

What a beautiful swimming pond. I built one myself with biological filters in the tropics (Thailand). From all ponds I have seen so far, mine is the only one with clear water and it is running like that already for 8 years. I'm planning to put an extra basin for relaxing next to it, but need to figure out to connect it to the main pond. I was thinking of getting a sandfilter, but now I decided to go the same route. I want to have that seperate spot because I had a piece land behind my pond that was just gathering weed. And the fish I have in my pond are hungry and never stop picking on me whenever I'm in the pond. I'ld like to have one section without fish.

@mentalarson 2 жыл бұрын
I am doing an off-grid property. In general, are these pumps the same size as typical pool pumps to achieve sufficient water exchange, or are the pumps smaller since they run 24/7? I assume the wattage consumption nets out about the same since moving less water all day requires about the same work as moving a lot of water for 8-10 hours a day.

Hi greg! Thanks for showing all of these cool water features. I have been watching all the videos as im very interested in doing a project like this on my property next summer. Is there a book that you can reccommend that has all the technical specifications for the filtration requirements and any other tips tricks that will help when trying to do a larger project like this? I know there are many certified contractors whom I could just hire, however I would really like to do it myself. Any suggestions? Cheers

Like that? 40-50k maybe (guessing). It’s the stones that really add up the cost. If you wanted a similar size but didn’t add the stone aesthetic you could certainly do for cheaper. There’s other videos on KZfaq of guys making their own for 15k, sometimes less than 10k (but they don’t look as good as this one does, this is pure art right here)

I think it wan mentioned the pump used is 9,000 gallons per hour - from Amazon , 620 W rating. Is you run this 8 hours per day, 4,960 Wh - at 12 cents per kWh in the US, that’s about 18 dollars per month.
