How to Fix Pond Leaks and Hide Liner

[@mickeyscarborough289]

I am enjoying your Sunday vlogs, Brian!!

[@Jeremydmeyer76]

Thanks for sharing the knowledge Brian. I'm in the process of digging my first pond and have learned so much by watching Team Aquascape videos. Over the last few months I've seen soooooo many ponds with horrible edge treatments (not on the Aquascape videos). The worst IMO are the ponds with 6-8" round stone border all around the perimeter. Nothing says this was "made by man" more than that. I get mimicking nature is a challenge and isn't always the look people are after but IMO I want a water feature that looks like it was formed by nature. Keep sharing that knowledge!

[@khakicam5400]

Finally, the elephant in the pondless waterfall room is talked about. I love the beautiful work that a number of CACs do, but as someone who works fixing watercourses and wetlands for a living, I've always found it really jarring when a beautiful set of falls just suddenly disappears straight into a flat bed of gravel, something you'll never see in nature. I think you need to send this video out in an email to all Aquascape contractors and suggest that having a scour pool on the bottom set of falls should be standard from now on. BTW, to minimise the clogging issue and keep to the mimicking nature theme, could I suggest a convex cobble 'bar' just below the scour pool/bib liner on top of your Aqua blocks and a couple of low overhanging shrubs or reeds to disguise the disappearing act and maintain some mystery.

This is the most neglected but important point in building a pond. Was waiting for it since very long thank you team 👍🏼

[@catherineengle4196]

Over the years with two different ponds that I built in my yard I would have this issue. It's an easy fix for someone who knows what to look for. I had to learn the hard way over the years so it wasn't easy at first.... At least you are showing people how to fix it and I wish I had that knowledge back over 20 yrs ago. God bless

[@michaelhammer3863]

Great stuff from Team Aquascape.

[@robertjoseph8162]

Very educational

[@pdiddy4292]

Thannnnnnk you so so so so much!!!!! Love this edge treatment edition...I feel it's the hardest part of completing a pond. At least to tie everything all together correctly. Edge treatment is vital,just like the waterfall. This is a huggggge help...please keep the edge edition rolling. Love the learning process from the vlogs!!!!🎯💯💪🤙

[@surfcurry]

That bib liner pooling area is a super cool way to add extra interest. Love it Brian!!

[@sandyl2493]

I needed this video!!! Thank you!! I didn’t want an edge looking so “placed” or “dotted” all the way around the edge with the same size round rocks. The way you showed how the random sizes blend away is exactly what wanted but couldn’t get it together in my head. That’s it exactly. I’ll be watch more of your videos. They are SOOOOOO very HELPFUL!

[@samanthatorres9517]

I'm just getting into your vlogs, and pond life/aquascapes. We live in colorado near the mountains, and your recreation of streams is spot on! Thanks keep sharing please!

[@chriswilson5571]

Great job explaining the not so glamorous parts of building an Aquascape water feature. Edging is important when you have a ton of interaction around the feature too.

[@rottison]

this was a great show that helps people. I am in the planning stage of a new pond as my fish are out growing the one I have now and I have been watching Team aquascape every day Chris and Brian is my favorite

[@caseyturner8773]

Been waiting for a series of videos like this for over a year. Thanks for this! I appreciate what you do.

[@jb-2714]

I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. Thanks Brian. Great video.

[@Tom_Aquagardens]

As always, thank you for sharing years of experience, I've learned so much watching all of your videos I't will help me when I'll build my own aquascape company in my country, first I'm going to build my first pondless waterfall this winter!

[@jezirko]

Thanks for a very nice and detailed video about both the bib liner to hold water before it disapears through the gravel in the negative edge's vault and several ways to hide the edges of the liner. I will use some of them by finishing my pond 😀

[@waata99]

My pondless fountain pools up without the extra liner over the AquaBlox because i excavated it a full 1’ below my outside perimeter. I do have a relief or adjustable dam opening to control overflow from rainfall. It’s my first attempt with AguaBlox - getting a lot of compliments. It’s approx 15’ x 12’ with a small waterfall, main fountain and 3 smaller features shooting water. BTW love all the great videos/info and love playing with water.

[@HaYNFishKeeper]

Thanks B for the inspiration love the tricks 🤙🏽🐠🤙🏽

[@bowl300X02]

This was SO useful for us. We just had a pond installed and there is a lot of liner exposed and we were not sure how to hide this. Thank you!!

[@benjidavis1662]

Great tips Brian. Thank you. You should talk about lighting and the different options Aquascape offers and how to install them.

[@karahelmlinger4244]

Love learning the tricks of the trade!

[@Jasonmountainbiker22]

[@oyvey764]

[@susanb1511]

I love the info on edge treatments. I've wondered for quite some time how you camouflage them.

Great Tips Brian!

[@davidg.9890]

Thank you Brian, I was waiting for a how to session with edging a Pondless waterfall where to look for possible leaks and how much or little to trim along the corners. Thank you...Thank you... Thank you!👍👍👍

[@geertslandwaterscapes7930]

Amazing tips by the pond legend himself!!👌 Always learning something new! Gonna incorporate the little "beach concept" in my future pondless waterfalls, especially when the clients have a dog!👊😉

[@Paulno28]

I've watched all your videos I really like this style of video I Like The Learning part I built my own Pond just watching you guys videos

[@brucew.5177]

Dude ... you are the Man . Very Helpful

[@brads.1479]

This is awesome. How about tips for hiding electrical (light sensor, pump controller, etc.)? Nice work.

[@dennisfeldmann7399]

Thanks Brian very informative some time ago you did a Blog about upon leaking and it was just water hyacinth in the biological area of the pond and how many they built up and it cause it to leak I found this true last year I was able to correct it just from watching something previous thanks for this information learn something new everyday

[@Jeremydmeyer76]

Hey Brian! How about a follow up on those edge treatments you mentioned at the end of this video?

[@davidprins5504]

Hope you guys get the job for Offtheranch Love your work 👌

[@robertforrest7956]

Great tips and info Sir Brian. 🎃

[@frankflanagan4360]

Great tips Brian! I'd like to attend one of your training classes and add water features to my company services!

[@thejimb76]

Been watching for years and I don’t think I remember the “bib liner” concept mentioned. Have you ever done an episode about bib liners? You should. It really naturalizes a pondless feature.

[@TEAMAquascape]

Yes but there’s a lot to cover

[@sachinkc1014]

Hello Brian. I want to see detail video of plumbing and filteration system for pond

[@davidsuydam4937]

Good tips, Thank you!!

[@annyates7212]

Hi I’m Ann from England🙂Thank you for that! I have just a small pond in my garden, and have a problem 🙁it a mould and the edge sticks up and as collapsed, so from what I’ve seen you do? Do I back soil it! I would appreciate your help thank you 🙏 I can’t replace it it’s to much work for me 🙏🤔😓

[@amandaprice1707]

Great tips!!!

[@TMichael1415]

Nice pond work

[@benpetz6816]

Very, very helpful Thank you!

[@jeffkluth2201]

Great vid, thanks

[@noyezz3690]

this was very interesting, thx

[@yorkshirekoi2246]

whats your opinion on doing a patch using strong silicone vs using a primer ? as a bonding agent ?

[@atgcain]

Great 👌, are you using foam as well in these areas or just the stones and soil !!

[@sharlenehreinson5316]

How much water is lost through evaporation, in Ut? Is there a formula? Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

[@kevinwillis6707]

hi, can we see a turorial on hiding the spillway / biofalls? thanks

[@colleenheitzler8670]

Great advice

[@DeadEyeDave]

What material/thickness of liner do you recommend for a small stream like this one? Any specific brand name to recommend?

[@edwardsprague3066]

I have used rock on a roll to help hide the liner. Have you seen it or used it? I have used it with two of my ponds. Help reduce the cost of all the rocks.

[@CoVaTennis]

Any recommendations on what to do if you cut the liner too short and don’t have any excess to pull up? Like I did smh

[@RugbyFootballer]

Interesting especially the clogging edging

[@raulohuskins7140]

Ponds done RIGHT. Customers served RIGHT!

[@rivercrest-watergardens]

Thanks!!!

[@johndu4864]

Can you do something about how to set up a planted island in a pond( not floating)

[@Jamesrcrowley80]

Sweet!

[@Flannery164]

Can Brian or anyone help with air bubbles coming from under my filter matts in the waterfall box?
