Great job on the koi pond! I always thought that single colored koi looked the best. Glad to see that someone else thinks that way too! Beautiful fish!!

Massively enjoyable journey, the tougher bits making the end result more worthwhile. Somehow I missed this video at the time, great to have a compendium 🙂 I'm never happier than when I'm relaxing by my pond, my dear old friends looking at me, asking quietly if I've got any food ! Single colour fish are gorgeous and you rightly say they tend to be the most friendly, they're like friendly labradors ❤

I'm nearly at the end of your video and I nearly dropped out of my seat when I saw the people you invited to your koi party because the pizza maker is no other than Alex!!!! That is so funny because you gave me a very similar feeling from the get go which kept me watching. How lovely you both are in your different passions and getting to at least connect on a new one for you and one that Alex knows a lot about which is the gardening that I enjoy a lot ❤❤❤😂😂😂

Well done to you and the builders for doing a awesome job great choice in picking your koi very nice man and your dad done a great job planting out very tropical 👍
That fact that you threw a party while being introverted shows that completing a childhood dream really meant a lot to you and that's nice to see
♥♥♥ Thanks Daniel! It did :)
If he's introverted, I am a hermit. Help! Lol.
@@lorrainemarshall8624 funny.
😮😢😂😢
Plus, maybe one of his rich friends will pitch in and throw a few€€€£££ his way...after seeing the wonderful job he did!
Never thought i would finish Watching an Hour Long Koi Pond Build since i already saw a lot on the Internet, but your Obvious Passion kept me Enjoying the Whole Video. I can definitely say that YOU REALLY LOVE WHAT YOU ARE DOING. Congrats to your Dream Pond 😊💕
Thank you so much!! :)
i was doing my chores while watching but i indeed watched entire video merely because 1. there wasn't too much high bpm music. the music was soft just like koi fishes xD 2. brother you have a soothing voice carl.
I was already at the half point and I didn't even realize how long this video was until you said it was an hour long.
Yeah i rarely watch a video over 15 min but in this i did not saw its an hour long and noticed why video's not done yet and was already 25 min into it. Nice job very interesting story that was 🐟
................?..?. ..
With your Dad being a garden designer, maybe you could interview him on how he decided what plants would go into your garden, maybe at like a 3 month update?
Nice idea!
Purple o😊
@@fishwithcarl I would love to know what some of the plants are as well, there are some really cool ones in there. I'm a little surprised there aren't any plants in the pond for shade or hiding places, but I don't know a lot about koi, maybe that's not usually part of a koi pond.
Just Alex being your brother just blew my mind but makes so much sense. Fisher and beekeeper, I love it.
I'm a first time watcher of this guy and I thought he sounded and looked similar to Alex you've made my brain happy
I know most of my subscribers have seen this project already, but for new people welcome to my channel, here's a project I did earlier this year. Hope you enjoy!
Have you ever thought about putting a sturgeon in your pond. (A sterlet is the species that can become golden and they only need 1000 gallons)
Love your vids
Yes, however they have different needs! So I decided against it to keep things simple :)
Cheers Billy, glad you like them!
I've followed you for years man, still watching it and you can't stop me! 😅 Ps. May I ask, how much did Charlie cost???
Would you ever consider running a livestream of your pond? Your koi are so beautiful and I bet they'd make a great stress relief video for people.
Thanks, I need a 5 hour video of the pond now
That would actually be cool if you think about it. Hopefully, he sees this recommendation, and hopefully, the squirrels don't botch the livestream running around the place lol
@@jessealvarez4522 hey squirrels are fun to watch too haha :p
I wonder if it would work putting a half submerged 360° camera in the middle for a livestream so one could look down and around at the carp, and up and around for squirrels, birds, and humans peaking over the wall…..
Great idea!!!
I didn't realize how long this video was when I started it, about halfway through I realized and I couldn't turn away. I've never been particulary interested koi or fish ponds, but this was so captivating and interesting seeing every detail that went into this build. Especially seeing your live reactions and the thoughts you had throughout the build as different things were taking place. Well done mate!
So glad you enjoyed it! Thanks Henny!
This was so wholesome. I’m not really interested in fish in general but I couldn’t stop watching this video. It’s amazing and congratulations to having your dream pond.
Happy you enjoyed it! 😊 Thank you!
@@fishwithcarl how much did it cost?
Around 40k all in, inc fish
I'm going through alot right now, and you have no idea how calm and zen watching this for an hour was. Thank you.
♥♥♥
Carl the biggest inspiration to us all. Started from the bottom and now look where he is.. watched you guys since you where little kids when I was just a kid. I’m now 21 and still watch you. You deserve it more than anyone you’ve worked and work so hard for this. Thanks for all the good memories watching you’re videos when I was younger. A true inspiration. ❤
Ah wow, thank you, really appreciate that.
Well, just over an hour ago, I had no clue about koi or ponds, but I've been absolutely glued to this, second by second. Similaryly, a year ago i had no idea about gardening and right now, im sitting surrounded by beautiful plants, flowers and fairy lights, learning about ponds. My garden is my refuge, a bit like your fish are for you.
Iam 14yrs and one of my biggest dreams is to have a koi pond like yours..!! Hopefully i would have one when i grow.. 😄
Carl not just the pond but you have come a long way I’m really happy to see how much you’ve improved with everything and the pond looks brilliant thanks for all the effort from us all
Thanks so much mate, really appreciate it.
So cool! My dad and I built a pond in my parents back yard. It is 4 feet deep, 5 feet wide, and 8 feet long. Hand dug it all! Built a waterfall going into it as well. Have some beautiful koi in there 😍
Sounds great! :)
I want to see it...
You got viewing panels too?
Wow, an hour video that's actually edited all the way. The amount of dedication for this one video is insane, it deserves so much more love than it has, you deserve so much more❤️
Glad you enjoyed it! Appreciate that :) Thanks so much
Honestly did not expect that I would sit through the whole hour but I loved seeing this process! Now I'm inclined to start planning one of these too! Great production mate!
I love the single color fish too! I feel to busy with colors and patterns takes away from the majesty of the animal! The blue one is definitely my favorite! I’m gonna suggest Luna as it’s name since it’s kinda Greyson like the moon.
What a beautiful space you've created. It looks gorgeous next to your nextdoor neighbor's stone patio in the aerial views too. I'm glad you got the steel colored one! It actually looked quite striking in the dealer tank among all the orange and gold. I've never seen a koi like that.
Thank you! Really happy with it! Yes love how the grey brings out the colours of the other fish :)
I’m sure 8yo you would be blown away. Great to see you socialising around the pond & enjoying it for what it’s for. 👍 I have learned alot from this vid about ponds gardening & life. 🙏thank you 👍👍👍👍👍
27:07 I’m only this far in. The way you did this video is so captivating. Everytime I think it’s coming to a slow less interesting part, the screen does a transition and you come back in with more information about everything and do such a great job of explaining that I’m stuck and don’t wanna click off haha great work
Haha, yay, happy you enjoyed it! Thank you :)
Mate, the pond, the fish, the garden, the pizza oven, nailed it💯
Ah that's kind, thank you Alan :)
Commented when I saw it before……..still brilliant!! Whole project and how it unfolds was captivating. Well done again and thanks for sharing!!
Ah thank you Jon! Happy you enjoyed it :)
This is honestly amazing, love seeing just normal guys doing something that makes them happy. Its the simple things in life that do it, added bonus that the Mrs is on board. Would love an update every 3 months or so on the pond and the garden which your dad has done an awesome job on. Totally different scale but I have a 500L cichlid tank in my house and sit by it for hours at night, its my happy place in a mad house with 2 little girls haha.
Ah mate :) thanks so much - really appreciate that and happy you enjoyed the film. Yeah Dad did so good with the garden, been great seeing it mature. Having a hobby like this means a lot and have finally let myself have get fully into it has been amazing. Brings much needed calm and a lot of joy as it sounds like you get with your fish keeping - a 500L Cichlid tank sounds unbelievably awesome! For sure, would've loved to have filmed a bit more of the pond this year but things got a bit busy! will definitely have something out next Spring, and will try to do an autumn update next year also.
Iv'e watched matt for ages and i can say that any pond glassed by him will never leak before it turns 20 years or more he is an master at his work !
Was super impressed with his work :)
"When you've had enough you can just... switch em off" must be the most relatable sentence I've seen :'D love your videos, grats on the amazing pond! Any worry over predators for open pond? Also big gold/yellow could be "Sunny side up"
Haha, Yes Sunny is a good name!!
The space looks like a wonderful sanctuary for you and your family!! I wonder if the fish get bored with no rocks, hides, vegetation, foliage, or hardscape?
I agree, I would definitely put some plants in there for them.
yeah my thoughts... it's so empty :( these fish are very pretty but it doesn't make them decor...
For reaaal. They definitely do.
They are fish they don't get bored they care about survival and reproduction
@@maxmock2661 Not sure sure about your logic there. Fish have personalities and can become bored, "depressed," extra agressive, and/or stressed from lack of stimulation. From the viewers perspective, also, don't you find aquariums with reefs or vegetation much more interesting to watch than the empty tanks in restaurants or fish stores? Do a quick Google search before posting untrue opinions.
Thanks to you and your brother I am now falling down the koi and bee keeping rabbit hole, found out about the local bee keeping society and planning my visit for the first honey harvest next year and also planning to grow some veggies in my kitchen because I don't have a garden or a balcony. You two are contagious with your fascination for your hobbies and new interests.
I need to see more people like this, people who openly have this kind of passion for something, I mean it's really easy to see just how much you love all of this, the fish, the filtration system, the proses of building this entire thing, it's really heartwarming to see
♥️
I would buy a lot of those little ones And try to grow them myself. It's amazing to see them grow in front of you.
Love the pond build and all the fish. I love all things shiny, so I absolutely love any gin rin koi, you can get some absolutely stunning gin rin chags that just sparkle. I do love the orange one with the black pinecone markings. I've been planning a pond build for a year or two, I'd love to fill it with one of each type of koi however I think I'd have to go down the route of growing from fry to afford the ones I want and then watch them grow. Think you should name one Bob ☺️
i really love all the colours of the fish you bought, and honestly i don’t think the grey one is boring at all! it looks like a silver fish among the gold ones. your guy’s whole garden design is truly beautiful, i can’t imagine how you guys decorated your home ✨ and a possible fish name for the grey one could be ‘lume’? it’s a short term for the luminous phosphorescent glowing solution applied on watch dials; but it also means light.
Glad you enjoyed the fish colours too! That's an interesting name :)
Hey carl, just wandering how much the fish were in total and can you put a price next to each type of koi. Especially the last one which was the biggest and Charlie.
What a way to spend an hour! - amazing video and cinematography. I’ve been watching your content for years and you’ve never made a bad film yet. Thanks Carl!
😊 Cheers Mick, that's kind. Happy you enjoyed it!
Couldn't agree more with this comment!
❤️
Your excitement and joy radiates, and you’ve made me just as happy by sharing it. Thank you, and I’m so happy for you :)
Wow, thank you :)
Before this video, I didn’t even know there was a koi community, and yet somehow you kept me fully entertained for a whole hour! This was a very well done project, a very well done video, and I’m very glad I spent my hour watching this! Thanks man!
At like 3:15 you could see his breath and it looked like a dragons' fire breath! Very nice looking. Props to being out working in such cold weather too
Congratulations on your dream pond. The entire garden renovation was spectacular.
Thank you! :)
Thank you for sharing your journey. I love every minute of it and enjoy your koi pond.
Im so glad i stumbled upon this video tonight. I’ve had two bad falls in the last three days, and so it was nice to watch someone be so excited about fish! I love fish (as friends, i dont eat them), and every time you got excited about one i also got excited!
Don't know how I ended up here, but I want you to know that I watched your entire video and loved it. That Koi Pond looks amazing and your fish look very happy and healthy.
Love from India (Kerala)❤️ watching for the first time and made me great fan of you 😍. The dreams that can't be fulfilled by us can be seen here. Great work brother.
Hello! Thank you :)
There is peace ✌ 😌 having a large pond in your backyard. Amazing 👏 🙀 😮 😲 😯 👏
That was the most enjoyable 1 hr watch on you tube!!! Looks amazing! Your enthusiasm.... I love fish needs. I actually yelled out loud when u save Charlie!!! Yay Charlie!!! Congratulations. Would love to see updates!!
While procrastinating two projects, I think I made a good decision to watch an hour+ video because as a person who also loves sea and related creatures, there is something very inspiring about this video. Thanks! (Also it’s late but the steel and orange fish in the bucket made me think of yin and yang so there’s a name idea…)
Thank you! You're welcome :) Glad you felt inspired!
I sure like your pond, but the yard and landscaping make it a beautiful piece of living art. Congrats!
This was so fun to watch. Thank you for sharing it with us, it was so interesting to learn not only about the pond build, but the beautiful koi! Also the Pool Specialists seemed really nice.
What a brilliant video ... thanks for bringing us along on this amazing adventure!
Hi! Really enjoyed watching your entire process. Thought you were pretty patient w your various leak setbacks. Gorgeous kois! Q. If plants are problematic, how about some clear tunnels...like a small obstacles course to give these intelligent creatures something to do? Maybe some big rocks too. Later, add a waterfall feature. Add a small sunsail tarp on one area if they need some shade. Q.Do you ever play classical music for them? Enjoy your cool backyard!🙂👏
Everything turned out so beautiful. I love the wisteria. The cedar, I feel was a great choice. Everything has a great eye appeal. Great job to all involved.
Thanks so much Kelly!
English tradesmen just hit different lol you need to get some security cameras and a higher fence i reckon. i wouldn't trust that brick fence the concrete came through The single colour fish really do look beautiful alltogether- its almost like theyre being illuminated by rays of light hitting through the water
The silver koi is my favorite one! Sterling would be a beautiful name for him.
Best cinematography cheers mate
Thank you, happy you enjoyed it :)
wow that was an amazing project! cant imagine the cost between the fish and the work. The neighbors must have loved you all that construction lol. Love to see the fish so clear through the glass, would like to see a feeding session. Cant get any better than fish friends so relaxing and beautiful to watch
I would want all of the kinds of koi!! The large, single coloured ones are so sweet and calm, but I also love the patterns of the smaller ones and a variety of sizes does a good job of filling out the pond
Beautiful work, Carl! Watched your Japan trip and this pond build. The finished pond is inspiring. With all of the hardscape, gardening, filter house, paint and finally a leak-proofed pond, your backyard is stunning. I'll be looking forward to updates as the pond and the fish mature.
Fantastic video, Carl! Thank you for sharing your adventure and journey with us!
Cheers, you're welcome. Happy you enjoyed it :)
Love your steel grey Koi: pure understated elegance. Congratulations on your achievement.
The most interesting build video I have seen! I'm both a fish keeper and a hobby landscaper and I am blown away! Well done!!
I want to be honest with you I haven't sat through a video in a long time I sat through this whole thing I actually cried a couple times because I thought your excitement and your the love for these fish but I like how at the very end you said that you secretly are learning to love gardening that happened to me in my thirties it changed my life I never knew how wonderful it was to watch it grow and it changed and it was beautiful so thank you so much for sharing this video and your relationship with all the people in your life and your dad and your lady there I like her name when I wish you guys nothing but great happiness
Glad you got a variety of koi because they all contrast well together.
Thanks love how they look together :)
There is nothing like having a beautiful koi pond with beautiful fish in it ,so relaxing 👍🏻
I totally agree! :)
Congratulations and thank you for including me in this adventure.something to be so proud of.
It's a great project, but it's even more painful when it encounters water leakage problems. The joy of passing through pain is the happiest. Congratulations.
Great to see a high level project like this! Fantastic choice of fish too. Very entertaining video.
Loved it! The process was fascinating. Congratulations on the gorgeous koi pond and surroundings!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you :)
this video was so interesting that I didn’t even realize a hour went by
most people would get a pool for themselves but he got a pond for his fish that he cares about, this makes me so happy he cares more about his fish than himself ❤
Love your pond , the design, the process, your passion , care, everything you've done to create your vision is phenomenal! Love your Koi they're gorgeous. and unique, thanks for sharing this it was inspiring.
Ahh happy you enjoyed it ♥ Thanks so much :)
@@fishwithcarl Thank You and Happy Holiday's!!
You're welcome :) hope you had a good one!
speechless… what an amazing build, you must be so happy with the results
So happy ❤️ Cheers Jordan!
I’m so jealous! I’m happy that Charlie is okay. I’ve always wanted a koi pond of my own.
As a labourer seeing you treat them with such respect made me happy. On top of that helping out with what you can was just amazing. People rarely think to do these things, you're amazing! PS you're very correct, the snacks probably cut at least 2 hours off your quote😂 Most contractors don't take breaks on site unless the client wants us too!
I can't believe I watched the whole thing!!! I was really enjoyable seeing this process, and your love for the fish came through so clearly I didn't even think of changing the video! Absolutely LOVED this! I DO have a question though!! What happened to Charlie's eggs? Did you dispose of them, and if so why? Would really love to know your process!
Ah that's so cool to hear, thank you :) glad you enjoyed it!! Yep, they weren't fertilised, so they went onto the garden.
Wow, you have one amazing pond, its great to see all the effort you put into this pond finally become worth it!
❤️ Thank you :)
I love that you can see them from your office window, I keep my reptiles in my line of sight too, to observe, make sure they’re doing well and when they want to come out of their enclosures and free roam, explore. How the heck do you grow tropical plants outside in the UK? We’ve got 40 degree summers but the winters would kill anything, I have to pull them all inside
I’m only 18 but once I get my own house and I’m situated, i can’t wait to build my very own koi pond. I just love the look of the fish and everything about them brings me happiness…. Good video!!
Dude!! I'm so happy and super proud for you and this absolutely stunning build! You've come a hell of a long way since your original channel all that time ago. Absolutely loved watching this build and your perseverance with the project from start to finish. I can't wait to see the next level you go to with your channel. Probably THE most relaxing and best time I've spent on KZhead very recently. Congrats and kudos to you. Tight Lines my friend....Namaste.
Ah wow ❤ Thank you so much!! Really appreciate the kind words :) Happy to hear you find the channel so relaxing. Tight lines!
@@fishwithcarl I've been a subscriber to your great channel ever since you and Alex went your separate ways from your dual channel.

Your efforts are greatly appreciated as you're a serenity zero point in my current maelstrom life. Keep doing what you do and being what your are and I'll always support all your efforts and content. Hopefully we can meet on the water one day. Tight Lines brutha.
Very well done 👏 I love the plants, especially the wisteria. I'm a new sub, so this is the 1st video I've seen. Can't wait to see what names you picked for the other 3 fish. Congrats on finishing your koi pond. Thank you for bringing us along.
You're welcome ♥ Thanks Penny!
I just spent an hour watching this with my daughter. For some reason, it was a beautiful, magical hour. Thank you for sharing your wonderful journey. We shared it together, with you. Precious for me. Thank you.
Wow, that's so special to hear, you're welcome :) So glad.
What a wonderful project coming into fruition: "team-work is the dream-work" - and well worth sharing...So inspiring!
Thank you :)
Love the pond, it’s so inspiring! Thank you for sharing hoping for more videos on your koi keeping journey!
You're so welcome :) Thank you! doing an update later this month.
Awesome, massive thanks for sharing, that was fascinating to watch Sir:) The way the Fish being prepared for transportation, being placed in the blue holding bowls they were not thrashing about but quite relaxed, almost as though they knew no harm was coming to them ! Big thanks again and enjoy the fruits of all your hard work and effort mate :) Well done:)
You're so welcome, thank you Robert! That's kind. Happy you enjoyed it :) Yes it's amazing how calm they are considering, they cope so well.
Most beautiful koi pond I've ever seen,,, my dream koi pond
Beautiful fish! I agree that red one with black scale pattern is gorgeous.
What an achievement!! I’m so happy for you and the fish!!🤣
❤️ thank you so much :)
Realising a dream like this must be overwhelmingly amazing. I’m so happy for you guys.
❤ Thank you! That's really kind :)
I love the orange red black koi fish
That koi variety is called a Matsuba. Incredible fish!
The shot at 45:55 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽 that tree by your house with the lavender bundles of flowers. Dude this is sick
This is really amazing and everything comes together so well. I always dreamed of having an outdoor pond except with fancy goldfish but it gets way too cold for that where I live. It would have been great if you brought all the people who helped you build this over for a party.
Living the dream, amazing koi pond, love it! 😍
❤️ Thank you. Can't believe how it turned out.
@@fishwithcarl I love the koi having one solid colour as well, absolutely stunning fish 😍
Yesss! Glad you enjoy them too :)
Great video. You’re backyard looks completely sick! It’s amazing the transformation. Do you think you could share the building plans and blueprints that you used to build the pond itself and the filter house ?
