DIY BARREL FISH POND

[@shawnnoh899]

No need to use any type of sealant with a whiskey barrel. ALL whiskey barrels are 100% waterproof after about 24-48hrs of being filled with water. Once filled with water the wood expands and will NEVER leak again. Also the fish ABSOLUTELY need some type of shade in the form of plants or any type of cover really.. Otherwise they will just bake in the sun!

You sure about this? I use a whiskey barrel as an ice bath and after recently moving its location by way of rolling the barrel on its side there are now visible gaps between every piece of wood. I bought marine sealant but i would prefer not to use this if its not neccesary. I will test out your theory 1st and get back to you. Youd better be right😂

[@melanielpeixoto]

The sealant is likely to keep any of the whiskey residue that has been absorbed by the wood to get into the water, as that can be harmful for fish. That's why generally people use fish sage pond liners inside whiskey or wine barrels when making a fish pond

Wow everything was perfect. Exemption to the music. It gave me a headache and ended up pissed at the world, you, luna and the fish.

[@Carla_314]

All of the chemicals you put in there didn’t hurt anything?

[@alanoneill3167]

Hi Jake, nice idea. You need to give those fish something that will give them a bit of shade though - a fake water lily or something like that.

Alan O'Neill thank you for the advice. I actually have added some live plants to the pond. I think they’re helping a lot

That music,,🙈🙈🙈

[@Skittlesskittles-om6hp]

[@HiddenWildernessEco]

Wooden staves expand when filled....mines water tight.

Big fan sirrr

Nice video! A pond liner would have saved a lot of work.

[@justingonzalez702]

Wood expands. All you have to do is fill it.

[@tigerzhao6176]

Is wine barrel not waterproof?

[@star_fatinum4009]

When dry I think the wood contract leaving gaps

[@LetsLearnEconomic]

Dammit I sealed mine LOL AHHHHHHH! That's okay. It smelt like wine anyways so the coat I used in the interior will prevent water contamination:)

[@caveman8129]

How do u deal with water overflow

[@rev420official5]

Very creative. Is there anyway u could make another one and show everyone the whole process again? And then maybe use more cuts to make it shorter. You're awesome

[@4890jk]

Rev420 Official I’m not sure I could make the video again... I might be able to make a follow up video tho. It has come a long way since I made this. Lots of things have happened

[@LetsLearnEconomic]

Why dont you just skip through it

[@AromaDelightBeautyCareProducts]

Very nice DIYFish Pond new sub here

[@4890jk]

Aroma Delight Beauty Care Products thank you very much! It means a lot :)

[@BroomfieldRR]

That is some really annoying music. How about narrating the process and making this a useful video?

[@welditman1]

Dont barrel hold liquid. Why all the sanding and silicone

[@athena2zeus54]

Thats it?

[@deborahfoss904]

Wow perhaps you should have looked at some YT vids on setting up a barrel pond, or perhaps you were going for a Barren pond with all those un necessary chemically infused products. still a good try and like you said you are not an expert so we all have to learn

[@bananafloat27]

Great job

[@neogibbs5611]

u didn't need to use silicone
