Simple DIY mini patio pond: How to make betta fish pond at home - complete ecosystem NO TECH!

[@kelvinth30]

9:40 drill a small hold at the level you want and glue a wire mesh over the hole so only extra water can pass through

[@sophiaanies]

this is actually smart

[@krishnahandoko]

Maybe a layer of silicone inside could reduce the evaporation through the pot. It's fish safe as long as you let it dry out for about 24 hours

[@Oranjisom]

Wow! Thank you so much! Your clip answer every question that I looking from how to make the mini pound! ❤

[@hotdogagua]

these little lady fish are so pretty!!!!!! I hope they love it there

[@robynjones8161]

I just subscribed to your channel, I know I will continue to enjoy all your pond scapes. This video was very informative from start to end. I laughed when you placed the umbrella during rainy seaons. I can't wait for your next video. I pray you are safe with all the wildfires that we're hearing from the news, please do reply and give me any feedback on the wildfires.

[@ikoyDaPnoy]

Drill holes near the top for drainage. Then conceal it with moss

[@cynthiahinkle5573]

I really enjoyed your video! Beautiful job!

[@plant-a-holic]

Thanks!! So inspiring! Sooo in Florida, Zone 10A…what about the soil you mentioned… should we mix the native soil with potting soil to encourage microbes? What soil exactly do you recommend, please? Thanks in advance…hope to hear from you soon !🙏😊

[@yamunap4686]

Should we put heater in winter season or plants can maintain temperature also??

[@cc14344]

more pond content please!

[@Jmjaklee4]

Oh man I’ve been waiting for this one! That set up is just so amazing❤

[@AquascapeArtVideos]

hey thanks so much!!! will you make one indoors? 😜

[@khadeejahelmariam449]

Thank you... Really inspiring...

[@JacquelineJax]

I would love to do a few mini ponds with fish for my philodendrons, peace Lillies that I rooted in water and some pothos. I want to add fish but want to make sure it's self sustaining and stays clean without taking it apart. Do you have a video explaining what I need to buy to make it self sustaining for the fish and plants to survive. Is there a list of plants somewhere that oxygenate the water and keep it clean?

[@cowabungakev]

Wow, thank you for the tips, recommendations and video in general. How do you keep the pond water clear?

[@AquascapeArtVideos]

Hello! Thank you for stopping by, the mature ecosystem pretty much do all the work at this point! Also no overfeeding helps!

[@edwinwilliams9976]

Love the mini pond idea! What do you do for colder months? We get all four season here.

[@avaogara]

I love this I have a sm pond on my patio with a th ountain setting up a 2nd water sm feature .are those Lilly pads floating or ?..

[@bubbacoleman5098]

I live in a place where it usually just gets cold enough to freeze maybe an inch of water if I have the bucket very deep can I keep them outside indefinitely or will I have to bring them in I keep mosquitoe fish in them and they are fine when it freezes but I don’t wanna risk it with my betas

[@ErikAndrew-q2p]

I’m curious, as you live in Bali, you mentioned the garden facing south-is Bali located below the equator? I mean, I know exactly WHERE Bali the island is, in relation to geography, to the east of Java, so maybe my question is… is it part of the Northern Hemisphere? 😂

[@gj0628]

Great pretty lady and pond

[@thabatalohane7223]

Much love from Brazil!! Beautiful work!!

[@0217Apollo]

Just from viewing the video, the water clears up naturally?

[@jonisolis9645]

For people in colder climates they might want to try rice fish.

[@AquascapeArtVideos]

I have been looking for them but hard to find here in my region…

[@jonisolis9645]

Me too! I want to try them out in my little ponds. @@AquascapeArtVideos

[@hildanovianty170]

thank you so much for the video! i just search any where how to get clear water for small pond without filter. some how i get see your reels! after setting the plant, how long to put the fish to the pond? I must wait for the water is clear before put the fish?

[@rebel1980warrior]

how does the weeping moss stay moist?

[@kaoruM33]

what about drilling holes about a couple of inches below the rim so if it rains, it will drain without filling all the way to the top... and/or cover with a mesh netting during rains...?

[@eli-we3mr]

how would you prepare this for the winter?

[@MoitrayeeMajumdar]

Till what temperature bettas can survive outdoor?

[@gilvillamor5066]

happiest fish. not living in a size can tank

[@afifahzulkefli]

I love your pond build, It’s breathtaking. I have a pot that i’m just waiting to set up. I’d like to plant lotus or waterlily but the pond will be indoor, in my bedroom. I wonder what would be a good source of light for plant growth. I worry it won’t be as thriving indoors 🫠

[@hotdogagua]

that will probably kill it unless you figure out how to use grow lights (?)

[@jonisolis9645]

You need to use strong grow lights close to the top of the plants in order to give them enough light and I would put the light or lights on a timer for about 10-12 hours per day.

[@rdred8693]

You don't need the music. Your work is good enough. Thank you.

[@JhunDumsTVXj]

wow nice beautiful.

[@yanjijay6752]

Wished I could but kind of cold at least my state is

[@ravingcyclist624]

What about algae? With sun, it would like to grow in there. How do you prevent or control it. I use algaefix.

[@kovenant7]

Just subbed! I want to ask about feeding. I'm not putting betas in, probably wild guppies the pond is full of water and plants. I'm just waiting for it to cycle. Can guppies live off of water cabage roots and other plant matter? I can feed with flakes at times but if I go out of town I want them to be able to feed off vegetation and moquito larva.

[@sophiahouston]

Do they not need a filter because of the plants? Also would you feed them like normal

[@MyAquariumPetz]

cool vid

[@Falconurbex]

Dontheae pounds not need a pump and filter system and how long doea it take for the mudy bottom to clear before u putbthe plants and then the fish and do u need to decloranate the water u fill the pond with if its tap water u use ??? Thank you for any advoce u can give me on these queations i have asked.

[@AquascapeArtVideos]

Hello, this pond doesn’t use any tech and when i planted the water lilies i planted the rest of the plants and water was clear after a day or so. i didn’t use dechlorinated water for my top ups because of water source. I hope it helps!

[@MaryGraceNazareno-h7n]

Do i still have to dechlorinate the water?

[@vision8776]

Beautiful ❤

[@justanotherhuman3668]

Awesome!

[@mammaJ4147]

Did you grow your own plants or bought them. If you bought them where can you buy any pond plants besides pet stores ?

[@farahfahmida8008]

Approximately how many litres of water does the pot hold?

[@naickmercier2171]

It was very interesting , I learned a lot 👍 but I have a question : when do you change the water ? Thanks 🙏

[@AquascapeArtVideos]

hi Naick!! no water change here at all! simply top up now and again, this is the easiest setup i find. i think once the ecosystem is setup, everything runs on pilot 👍

[@erikm8372]

If you feel like it needs it, I’d do a weekly water change of 10-50% depending on how big the bowl or tank is. That was always my “system”, doing 50% every weekend, and my tanks did great. I also had a lot of use for that water in the garden at the time… But it’s true how once the plants and bacteria get going, as long as the nutrient level isn’t overboard or there’s too much fish waste (or overstocked), you’ll be ok actually. As it evaporates, top it off with fresh dechlorinated water. Maybe once or twice a month.

[@naickmercier2171]

Thanks my friend

[@edylie007]

Very nice. Does it require direct sunlight or shaded?

[@AquascapeArtVideos]

hello! for the plants i’ve used here, full sun is required at least for a few hours a day, and no problem for shaded areas, you can substitute to other plant like chamaedorea palms

[@helloaldrian]

Drill overflow hole near the top rim of the pot and cover it with mesh. Use silicone glue around the hole to attach the mesh. In Indonesia, you can buy smthng like plastic kawat nyamuk.

[@kelsontasha]

❤Very nice! I didn't think about putting bettas in my pond. What size is your pot? I'm using a Whiskey barrell 48qt or 12 gallons. Trying to figure out how many fish would be good to put in it. Thanks

[@johnnydartersaresuperiorbeings]

Do NOT put more than one Betta in a tank. They will murder each other unless you are a very experienced fish keeper and are keeping a sorority in a 40+ gallon.

[@DyoDzrk]

​@@johnnydartersaresuperiorbeingsyou can keep several female bettas in one tank, but not for the male

[@johnnydartersaresuperiorbeings]

@@DyoDzrk which is literally what I said. Read the full comment. I said you can keep a 40+ gallon sorority if and only if you are experienced.

[@Lesie28]

Hello! I super love this video and will recreate it. Is it beginner friendly? Also, what is the minimum and maximum size of pot that is ideal and does it matter for this set up? Thank you!

[@justanotherhuman3668]

Would small frogs be a bad idea??

[@jerrypuppy6680]

Is any dirt okay?

[@hollycomanse]

How often and how much and what do you feed the bettas?

[@hollycomanse]

Also do you dechlorinate the water or add any chemicals to it?

[@hansel1196]

Hi, do you see any dragonfly/damselfly nymph in your tub ? It bothered me very much and my guppies fry got killed...

[@erikm8372]

Do they jump out a lot?

[@shihchau70]

What is the plant’s name at the bottom of the pond?

[@mariademartino84]

I was wondering if the female bettas are pregnant, would the males fight as they do in aquariums ?

[@lasarkreatifchannel]

Nice.. 😍😍😍

[@kayjay-kreations]

What sort of fish please?

[@AquascapeArtVideos]

Betta fish

I'd like to be wrong but I don't think this set up will last.
