New Turtle Pond Made From A Spa!

[@hannahs4624]

very creative! I love seeing creative turtle ponds

[@Baffi_]

That’s awesome! Although I would have plumbed something up to utilize the existing plumbing. Probably use an external inline pump and a pressurized canister filter. Then turn up the flow just enough to keep the waste suspended so the filter picks it up, and low enough that the turtles can still swim around comfortably. Would be an awesome setup for map turtles since they are very strong swimmers

[@grantdiggs7088]

Pretty cool. I would get stoned and swim with my turtles.

[@coopsreptiles2588]

hahaha alright then

[@maniatikoleal]

im planning to get turtles just to do that. And also get them stoned, imagine them swimming so nicely stoned in a nice tank :)

[@grantdiggs7088]

maniatikoleal don't get them stoned

[@grantdiggs7088]

maniatikoleal although I did have a lizard that liked mushrooms

[@maniatikoleal]

why shouldnt i get them stoned? does it harm them? just a little puff

[@jimajams7080]

Fantastic idea. Love your turtles. Might have to look at this kind of idea for my girl. Thank you for a great vid

[@mollie6347]

Those Turtles look happy :) Its such a lovely place for them you have built.

[@rey2974]

That is amazing. Also, your turtles are beautiful.

[@coopsreptiles2588]

thank you

Coop's Reptiles this is the first vid I saw on ur Channel and and I already subscribed lol

[@guraysenova]

I am pretty sure they can climb on top of each other to escape. Turtles like to stack on top of each other.Btw you might want to put some sort of wheels below it to move it in and out. Some predators , birds and stuff might catch their eyes on them.

[@coopsreptiles2588]

had it for a few months now no issues.. thanks for the concern.

[@Heidibarnes]

Very cleaver. Thank you for sharing and giving me an idea for my water turtles :-D

[@tecytgirl5421]

So nice, great idea for your turtles.. luckly turtles to have such a beautiful good home and owner!!! cheers many blessing to you for taking such good care of your turtles, it's a awesome home!!! :)

[@gingercox6468]

This is awesome.

[@coopsreptiles2588]

thanks for watching

[@oreoenjoyer21]

That's such a great thing to do! Those lucky turtles!!!

[@dhazatone22]

Lol nice tank man I like it looks cool and very good use of the hot tub

[@randomcatmeow1394]

man that is some interesting tank setup XD turtles are able to live in all sort of conditions

[@vanessadoucette-buch1658]

Great Job!!! Love it!

[@andieloveswolves7788]

I like that some people have them in there back yard in there natural environment my teacher had a turtle in the class and I felt bad cuz it kept bumping into the glass it was a big turtle in a little aquarium they need more space

[@coopsreptiles2588]

they certainly enjoy the room

[@JavierFernandez01]

Great idea. I saw a spa tub that I wanted as an upgrade for my turtle pond. It was full of garbage outside of a burnt down abandoned cracking house. I don't need that bad.

[@hxpii1212]

Turtles are my favorite animals this is what I’m going to do when I grow up

[@WeThePeople001]

Did you do it? 🐢

[@hxpii1212]

Bro I’m 12💀

[@fishersfishing7092]

Nice creative thinking now the turtles are living a better life

[@AbxyT3nnisc0]

absolutely brilliant idea

[@jeremysegovia6466]

Thats what i call thinking outside the box lol thats dope👏👍

[@jackieerose7271]

that's a smart idea

[@zoinks0007]

that was smart to use the sand to level it

[@ernestohemingway7563]

That's really cool, man! Great job!

[@kristen4301]

Wow I wish my turtle had that, they are sooo lucky being captive turtles and all

[@gregxd1306]

This is awesome! I appreciate your work man. I love Turtles

[@HelloKitty15937]

I'd love to see you flesh out the decorations! It's always a matter of personal opinion, but I think I'd add some stones in one basking corner, put real or fake plants in the other basking corner, make it a super interesting environment. I love the DIY of this though, and great use of something that would've otherwise be stuck in a landfill!!

[@coopsreptiles2588]

thank you, i am in a slow process of making more interesting visually

[@Katseye102]

This very nice! Giving me ideas! Great video!

[@radessianipar4158]

Smart idea.

[@urbanrat84]

You got a like for the music alone! Great vid and project

[@biankarivera679]

omg the turtle was chasing the little fish😂😂😂🐢🐟🐢

[@BB-mi7gw]

They eat the fish:)

[@wolfgirl7233]

alice brambilla lol reading that was like evil lol

[@xavier_vazz2281]

Bianka Rivera that is a tadpoles

[@supremacywrestlingnetwork4268]

Bianka Rivera I was laughing

[@neor1600]

Xavier Vazquez those are tadpoles* or that is a tadpole* fix your English

[@DanielleT77]

Awesome job!!!

[@AfnanStudio_]

very creative indeed. awesome! :-)

[@zacharkin4579]

Really awesome idea man

[@coopsreptiles2588]

thanks man i am happy with how it turned out

[@awilson9722]

Great idea!

[@keikei4749]

lol chasing that little guy cutee😂

[@ChuckHorneTheLizardRoom]

Very cool!

[@daniel-is6zf]

I was looking at a flat bucket sylte pond $175... picked up a 2mx2m spa with multi levels built in I guess for seating..never had chemicals through the new pipes n pumps..going to hook to solar for few hours a day pit a nice grill and wood top on it and make it self sustaining as much as possible until I can have it in the ground 😊

[@daniel-is6zf]

Spa $100 even could use it for the summer if I wanted to haha considering I was looking at a tent a few months ago life's starting look like 5 star to me haha😊

[@damotoneko1500]

Awesome work dude. A good act of kindness making that for them :D

[@MinecraftRex16]

turtle-"get your ass back here fish I just wanna give you a kiss"

[@AussieReptilez]

looks great!!

[@coopsreptiles2588]

thanks man i appreciate it!

[@mariaolazaran6980]

Pretty cool

[@evamaiorino5540]

Really Awesome! Only thing I would suggest is a ramp from the basking area to the water. Let me know if you have one and I just didn't see it!

[@Chillmane]

i cant wait till i make a turtle pond. this looks nice as hell id swim in it if i fit lol

[@rudysantillanez39]

I like your turtles

[@Hubs88]

Always looking for a out. :)

[@nikkilee5536]

the turtle is so cute!

[@dhirajyadav5287]

Best turtle pond ever

[@lindahayes9495]

that is so nice.

[@jase123111]

Lucky turtles!!! Be careful if you get heavy rain that it does not overflow and the turtles get out.

[@coopsreptiles2588]

it has holes drilled into the sides so water won't go past that point

[@fishersfishing7092]

I just spent fifteen seconds of my life watching a turtle chase a fish😂😂😂😀😀

[@angelaangiegirlstoner186]

*Fishers fishing* i know right'' but loved it'' I subscribed and interested in ur fishing experiences

[@kaileyortiz7515]

tkgb😀😀🎤🤐🤐

[@brennanvoss]

Fishers fishing best 15 seconds of your life

[@obryan240]

Don't feel bad. I spent 45 minutes watching a guy mow a lawn.

[@deisgnerkidtv1154]

those turtles are amazing climbers i had one of the same and it climbed a wall 14 inches high i had setup . maybe put another 2x4 ontop of the lip so they cant grab it. but you know if it will keep them in or not im sure. cheers love the setup

[@faithocomments]

Those turtles are lucky!!!

[@coopsreptiles2588]

thanks they do enjoy it!

[@deepalesonwane1117]

Omg it is nice🐢👍🤣🤣🤣😁

[@Sparatic18]

This is so dope!

[@chartzie8144]

Boi those turtles are lucky

[@markanderson7555]

Love the setup, but I think I would have used the jets as part of the water filer system with and external pump going to a bog filter system. Which you can make out of your current filter, plus you can hide the pump under your setup.

[@coopsreptiles2588]

we were going to do that but i can't remember there was a problem with doing it that way unfortunately

[@benjaknight8255]

Wow that was pretty creative :D Nice job! :)

[@unckadan]

Turtle need sum beach chair and umbrella and a cocktail to get a buzz on

[@Iamadrummer]

Put a heat lamp in the box for days and nights it gets cold. Otherwise great pond idea.

[@Talis1717]

I’d totally let some wild plants friendly for turtles grow in and around the pond to make it more natural, just imagines an over grown creeper handing over the waterfall UwU

[@atriptothotland2836]

I'm really happy you did that for your turtles the set up before was just....... sad really sad BUT NOW THERE PROBABLY NOT DEPRESSED YAY TURTLES 🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢💦💧🌊XD :3

[@sapphirerosemcdaid836]

its such a good idea

[@lizardcar5792]

COOL!!!

[@elohel6036]

What happens in the winter or during storms?

[@rahulchavan0972]

this was aaa good idea cool man

[@bigskreet6928]

This is so cool but one thing you should have done is get green pond liner and put it in where the white is

[@coopsreptiles2588]

unnecessary work plus it would make it look like its all full of algae. I'm planning on putting some rock on the bottom for a more natural look

[@falcolf]

I would legit do this too if I inherited a hot tub!

[@cheese_stick4342]

this is soo cool

[@aswinsshibi9677]

Lol the fish is running for saving his life..Ha ha ha

[@keke1384]

so cool

[@daniel-is6zf]

I ike your build too mate 😊

[@samanthacooper6587]

so cute awww

[@lunnaflame12]

Happy,turtls

[@TurtleGrandma]

Nice outside idea! Can you tell me how warm the water gets from the sun? I'm just wondering if the lighter inside helps keep the water from getting too warm?

[@Crssal]

another good idea would be to add a small trash can or two or a planter pot in the water so they have somewhere to hide

[@brennanvoss]

1 year ago this inspired me to get a turtle!

[@Lloyd_workshop]

Are those amazon river turtle

[@teaganking9760]

One of the turtle's shell seems to be messed up, what happened to it

[@Porcelynnn]

Teagan King he said it's shedding its shell

[@liliandaria4072]

turtle1:DONT DO IT MA... turtle2:JOHN CENA!! turtle1:do... turtle2:oh hi little fishy now get in my mouth

[@creepshowcrate]

Basically it's a Club Med for turtles.

[@amysanchez3019]

Its going to be a pain to clean 😂

[@tashainjena]

I do believe that turtle wanted a fish dinner...

[@loverslanehawj6244]

I thought I've seen some cool handmade tank until I found your channel. I'm in wow moments.....this awesome scenery add life to your backyard. These turtles are blessed to have creative owner and they get to hang out in the backyard called special home. One question, how about in raining weather, is there a canopy over the spa to keep from direct rain on spa/turtles? I see they can hide out under cover on basin net.

[@coopsreptiles2588]

thank you and no cover for them when it rains as they can hide under or in the box and the pond doesn't over flow as it has drainage holes on the land parts

[@tamariderr]

Thats great. Pretty much a perfect setup. Do you have a heater in the filter or is it warm enough? Tempted to add some nice sand or pebbles to finish off the look?

[@coopsreptiles2588]

no heater it gets warm enough here and pebbles may work good

[@MXRGVH]

You got my sub

[@miniscoob6569]

is it possible to have that setup with a good soil and plant life in the bottom? that would be cool :)

[@coopsreptiles2588]

not sure i guess it could be done just make sure it is safe for turtles

[@skillsone4384]

what type of turtles are these

[@fredrickjones7593]

did you put the tadpoles in there too?

[@turtlestew1263]

One day that turtles gonna catch that fish and it's gonna be a blood bath

[@manuelgabriel7907]

why not give them a little hidding place in the water? for example driftwood? they would feeld much more secure with something like that.

[@legend_0088]

Give us an update of this turtle sanctuary :)

[@lifeonthefarm9341]

What breed of fish are they

[@Patchwork_Dragon]

Life on the Farm umm, they're tadpoles, not fish. Tadpoles are baby frogs by the way.

[@rtgbhreth]

and here im like omg hose the tub down firsttttt

[@mammalchannel3846]

I might make this but with a horse water feeder

[@xchad8833]

Did anyone else think he created the 3 stones for the tadpoles graves? LOL

[@christophermeredith1199]

How much did it cost to build this

[@grantdiggs7088]

Christopher Meredith I would guess 500$-1000$

[@goonwop592]

build price should be free... its all garbage you couldn't give away... looks like complete shit.

[@jtp1145]

What is the large fish in there? Just wondering.. That so cool loved this video!

[@coopsreptiles2588]

it is a koi and its a bigger pig then the turtles thanks for watching!

[@AgentDingo]

what do you do in heavy rain? does it overflow?

[@coopsreptiles2588]

nothing, it has holes to let any overflow out

[@AgentDingo]

cool as! im looking for ideas for the future i have 2 oblongs, (long necks) they're young but one day they wont be ahaha

[@kenjiro2676]

Can these turtles be mixed with other species? Like red eared sliders? How about diamond back terrapins?

[@coopsreptiles2588]

probably not I'm not sure tho

[@Twichl]

Do you some kind of cover to keep the predators out?

[@coopsreptiles2588]

nope my turtles are too big to be taken by anything now if they were smaller i would
