yeah that is also the side that was a little lower so water weight put more pressure on that side as well... water is heavy lol

@@tomchristensen2914 I’ll be honest, I’m just glad it wasn’t the side that’s on the neighbours fence, that would’ve been an awkward one to try and fix 😂

Yeah that would have been bad... glad you caught it in time. That is a lot of water ..my pool posts are sinking on the lower side and it will collapse eventually. I have 5 acres so not worried about where water goes. But next pool will be level for sure lol... I will use 2x6 posts when I extend my koi pond

@@tomchristensen2914 yeah for sure! Ah yeah that’s not so bad to be fair! 2x6 is a great shout. Tomorrows video with the pond built with sleepers, we used 4x8’s which is surely not going anywhere 😂

Thanks for the update. Never having built a pond, I think that overbuilding in terms of strength or capacity, is a good way to go. You never know what is going to happen. Can it handle a hurricane? Yes? then it can handle my fish, lol. Looking forward to the future episodes.

Thanks Natalia! Yeah for sure, which was the initial plan but in my own worst enemy and got too impatient.. should’ve got a refund and ordered the right size, but my brain wouldn’t let me 😂

I built my pond out of wood, it's 20x7x3, it could have been over a hundred feet long If I had the room, and it has a roof and filter house, great video mate, just subscribed and rung the bell 🔔👍

Nice job mate thn ks for sharing, ponds are something that I find fascinating and have been converting the techniques into my reptile Vivariums

Thank you, I appreciate that! Yeah I made some mistakes on this build but luckily nothing major happened and we caught in time, but now I know better for the next build and can warn people to avoid what I did wrong 😁 Love your vivariums by the way, truly inspirational stuff, keep it up!

Can you add turtles to the pond when you redo it?

That’s an incredible idea! I don’t know if I can, but I will 100000% look into that now you’ve mentioned it!
