Thanks for the video!👍 I will share my opinion of an experienced pond builder. When I build ponds, I remove the fabric filter from the drain pipe. Over time, the fabric will pass less water and this will reduce the flow of water through the gravel (biofilter) and reduce the efficiency of the biofilter. But it may not happen for you. Good luck!

How did you determine how much liner you needed? I’m doing measurements and I can’t quite figure out the size I need.

Hi Greg, That’s probably worth a clip on its own. Simply put it = width + (depth x 2) + 2’ for the edges. Keep in mind the liner only comes in 50’ widths so I would avoid going wider than that so you don’t have to have a seam. If you want I can help if you give me the dimensions.

Love the dirt art digging. Fun watching. How many gallons? It is a whopper. Our traditional backyard pool 22,000 gallons this is huge.

Curious how you anchored the pallets to the sand bags.
@chrisyoung5721

They just sit on the sand bags. The crushed rock ultimately locks them in being that it is up against the pallets.

Great video! Where did you get the gopher mesh? What did you put on after the mesh? Some kind of carpet?

Amazon is my friend (Amagabeli 48 x 100 Hardware Cloth 1/4 Inch 23 gauge Galvanized After Welding Fence Mesh Roll Garden Plant Supports Poultry Netting Square Chicken Wire www.amazon.com/dp/B01EXWMOY0/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apip_uEimdjgUNK2oK) Ya I used recycled carpet. I lived dangerously. If I were to do it again I would use mirafi just to be safe. The carpet has worked fine and saved me a few bucks but in hindsight it’s risky.

Looking good IE neighbor! Just wondering why you used the pallet wall since you staggered the drop to each level. Is it necessary?
@chrisyoung5721

Hindsight being what it is I would have used a block wall approach, but either way you need something to hold the rock back from sloughing off into the swimming area. Hopefully that answers your question.

~25k. I did the labor. Was 2020 so you would need to escalate materials accordingly.

Ok right at 4:58 I think I foresee rocks around the edges where you are putting flex black pipe? 6" pipe?
@chrisyoung5721

Yes, perf pipe goes below the rocks. That’s what draws the water through the rocks to filter the water. This system does around 300 gallons per minute in circulation.
