How to Build a Pond on a Budget
Pond 14 years ago 610,808 views
A few weeks ago Anna's mom had mentioned that she would love a pond in her back garden, so I looked around to see how much it would cost to build one and its turns out it is quite expensive. You can hire a pond building specialist or you can buy a preformed plastic base either way its going to cost you anywhere from €500 to €5000!! So I though it cant be too hard to build one... you dig a hole.. put in some sort of lining and than fill it with water.. It took me 2 days to complete the pond at a cost of €40.

toogood. A filter in this small of a pond is debatable. The liner tucking was a cute idea, but too much rain could lead to the dirt over it sliding into the pond. To make the pond a bit more detailed, you could've made small slopes around the pond and place rocks there. If your pond went deep enough, you could hide the liner there with rocks too. More plants and maybe some fish would top it off.Only suggestion is to make shelves for the rocks so they don't fall in.
Good job mate.

Why do you assume frogs will be there to eat mosquitos?

So I decided to make a mini wildlife pond for me and my teen daughter, I'm at the why did I start it stage at the mo.. Thankyou for this video!!! ....Would love to have a pond update of how it is now.
I done exactly the same at my house and it all cost next to nowt.
Now I've got a pond with frogs and all kinds of wildlife that we never used to get (Including midgies by the way) Grrrr.
I find that the water level goes down after a while but that's due to evaporation and tiny leaks,this is a good thing because the water is renewed and refreshed with a hose,simple!
just kidding:) good job, guys))))
