Check out how clear the water is! You can see a dime on the bottom of the pond just after a few days. Check out the first part of this video to see how green the water was!

  • UV kills everything! Not good for a self sustaining ecosystem. Plus, your liner will not last being exposed to the elements like that (and it looks crap). Your liner will crack within 5 - 7 years. Try rocking the bottom of the pond. Aquascape's the way to go.

  • There are so many things incorrect about your comment - I do not know where to start.

  • there had to be a reason. i must admit you are in the minority group of folks who have had bad luck with these. we have been using them and selling them since 2003 (thousands of units) with maybe 5 units returned due to improper performance.

  • no ours is wired in,its a above ground brick pond.

  • Are there any breakers turned off in your breaker box?

    Is the pump in the pond or out of the pond? Sometimes out of the pond pumps (external) have on/off toggle switches on the outside of the motor casing.

  • we just moved in a new house with a pond and we dont know how to turn the pump on.

    please help

  • Most pumps for ponds simply need to be plugged in. Check to see if there is a "sump" on the edge of the pond. That's where the pump should be. Some home owners take the pumps with them though.

  • Americans can be REALLY REALLY REALLY over the top and SO annoying this video proves it ....he just goes on and on and on and on and on on on about it i was shouting at him to SHUT UP!

  • how many gallons is that pond?

  • @pondmarket lol SUSAN BOHYLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

    Quick question, where can i buy one of these mr salesman

  • Bacteria colonizes in the biological filter mats and the gravel. Did you look at the website I mentioned?

  • Ok since you mentioned the sun's UV rays, why don't the sun's rays kill the beneficial bacteria if the UV lamp does?

  • pea gravel is round and has soft edges. 1000 plus ponds and never had an issue. The suns UV rays is whats truly harmful. Exposure to the sun is what makes the liner hard and brittle eventually causing leaks. When we place large rocks, we put a layer of geotextile fabric on top of the liner to protect it from a puncture hole.

  • I have read that gravel poses it's own unique threat to liners during cleaning. Walking on the gravel (according to the article I read) can prematurely age the liner and eventually cause holes in it. What is your opinion?

  • We cover the liner with Rocks and Gravel.  aquascapedesignsDOTcom

  • If your pond's are crystal clear, why can't you see the liner? And If your correct, do you have a video posed or website that can somehow enlighten me?
