This video shows step by step how to build a backyard above ground pond with waterfall / filter for less than $400. This could be a good project to adapt and help support an aquaponics growing operation to keep your fish in, and filter the water from the fish pond into your grow beds.
The materials need for this project are…
- 12 – 3x4x8 landscape timbers,
- 4 – 18″ angle iron,
- 1 – Pond liner 10×13,
- 6 – 1x6x6 fence boards,
- 18 – 8×16 landscape pavers,
- 17 – Decorative pavers,
- Pond pump,
- Filter media
- Bio media – activated carbon,
- Plastic planter box,
- 2′ of 3/4″ pvc plus a couple connectors and about 7′ of 1/2″ tubing.
It only took a couple of days to build and it was really easy project. Check it out below…
