I'm live waiting I'm not am I waiting what's up fish tank people Dustin's fish
tanks bringing it to you live on a Sunday baby how's everybody doing I hope
you're doing well in today's livestream we're gonna go we're gonna show you full
Sun experiment that I've been doing in the pond that I'm having a good time
with I'm gonna talk about some merch I'm gonna show you guys really just the
garden pond in full morning glory as hot as the Sun can be typically I don't not
able to get videos out with a lot of the flowers out so they're all there so
we're gonna roll alive no this is an impromptu live so you know there's no
editing going on here because my man Andrew and I and Josh for that matter
are in the middle of making a really really sick video I know you guys like
my top fives I know you guys some of you like my sense of humor we are working on
a video that's a top 5 that we watched and it's a good video but we're about to
make it great so we're actually pulling that one didn't put that one up today so
you are getting it live raw shimmy-shimmy y'all from your boy Dustin
if you do if you don't mind click share like whatever that helps me with the
whole wonderful thing we got going on here so uh yeah I am out here and this
is post run enough shape and if it's live and if something happens I
apologize I'm just like on a Wi-Fi just getting it going so here's what we're
doing here this is the setup of the garden pond out here like this and one
of the things people ask me about garden ponds is where do they put them put them
as close as possible to the house I learned that I live that I love that
this is through the screen so like you know if it's a little distorted I'm
sorry but I'm right here like I'm right against it and it's really a lot of fun
for me to be immediately on top of it I thought about how if I had it like way
back out in the yard how it just wouldn't work so I'm pumped about that
and then one of the things I want to talk about in today's video is the fact
that I put this in full sunlight like the Sun is out there you can get it in
full full freaking sunlight and that's what I want to show the benefit of right
here so here we go
walk you out here and I hope the Wi-Fi works good this is uh what I'm trying to
do in greenhouse 2.0 and I wanted to give a big THANK YOU to everybody look
at the camera here so when I doing a ground he's designing some merch we just
worked out a deal yesterday so I've got some really cool merch let's get the
fish going first
so there's those guys
you can see the grow mow in there that's the new Goro mow Kohaku that's the big
song kay another Kohaku Harrell walk a and they're all rolling so here are some
plants that I want to show that I'm working on though this is a a bacopa
yellow flame that I brought down in here and I absolutely am running this just so
you guys get some perspective of this I'm running this in about 8 inches of
water here and I wanted to see what these plants how they would respond well
this is a prime example of it please note we'll start with the bad this is
the bottom part of the bacopa that I just got beat up coming in they were
delayed a day but then look at the tops on that though you can see the tops of
this are really flying I'm loving those so that's been really rewarding they
call it yellow flame for a reason because Thank You Anthony what's up man
because it gets that darker color right there so the real shallow water and you
can see the light reflecting off here is coming in there like that the reason and
the catalyst for all this however comes from and there's the Sun right as I talk
about it comes from this plan this is a marble Queen sword and what happened was
when I took these out of the bag and I set them in here I immediately got a
response so I want you guys to see the marbling on that leaf and this leaf here
so this is new growth in just weeks time and I want to get it in focus there
that's new growth there in there and the dead stuff you just kind of rip off but
man that has been really really really exciting no these are actually being
choked out by a rubber band if they were planted it'd be better but this is the
way we keep them together so this can be removed now obviously any time you have
any sort of AA of like a like dead leaf or something like that you want to just
get that off of there and then it'll just let this root this stuff can go
it'll let these leaves grow better so that's that and then over here we've got
some more swords this is actually a type of 10 Ellis
type of tune Ellis as I say oriented it wrong and this is a Cana doors to Nellis
and this is one of my favorite plants at this moment because of what way it comes
and bounces back and I just really love the way it just goes back like comes
down and it's just like a standard sword but it's a smaller shorter grass like
this would be a little bit harder than to warp sedge but I love the way that
this plant bounces comes back and then gives you that little fluff there but
liking this and I learn anything so that's been the full Sun experiment
there and then I want to show this I talked about this plant last week and
here it is again this is hi Gruffalo Chordata I'll show you an ugly one this
isn't this is a like subpar one like I wouldn't sell this one but it's still
coming back like crazy this is hydraulic or Dada red in full
Sun so that has been a really rewarding one for me I love the way it's going yo
anybody go to read for polluted this weekend drop me a comment I wanted to go
by got a lot of stuff going on tomorrow is actually my family my main planning
meeting so I had to stick around here and do that people are asking about the
substrate of this pond that's a very good question while people have asked
that while I roll over here this is the this is the nutrients right here so
there is no substrate in here there are rocks in here but there are no there is
no like dirt or anything like that they're living entirely off of the
nitrogen of these fish right here and they're doing well I also want to point
out this right here this is a hibiscus and this hibiscus I was told by somebody
and I wish I remembered who it was in the comments to have the hibiscus fully
in the water but I want you guys to count the new buds coming on this
hibiscus because it's fully in the water I'm really pumped about that one two
three four five six seven eight nine 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 get the
idea like lots and lots and lots of hibiscus buds however this hibiscus
right here has not come back yet so this one I say it's not coming back yet it's
fully happy it's a happy plan it's got nice firm
Leafs and structured structure is fine that it's not flowering because it was
in the greenhouse all summer and then there's a Lotus that is actually a a
hardy Lily and I want to point out the differences here this is a hardy Lily
this is a tropical Lily see the difference in the leaves right here and
then look at that flower right there that's the difference and then here's
the view of the koi from me and there's our tropical ones as well that's a queen
of Siam queen of Siam and I forget which one this one is but that's a hardy Lily
so this would be my recommended variety if someone we're looking to buy one
because these will die through the winter so and then this plant is up all
over Peru and in the Amazon this is just a water hyacinth and this would be great
for breeding fish and that's actually part of what the video that got
cancelled for today holding it back making it better for you
bring you bring a needle live oh and then I want to show this over here this
is the Strela stellata and this plant has come on incredibly strong of late
can you guys see this but this is full Sun that is full Kentucky summer Sun
right there and that's probably not doing it justice because it's the camera
line so I'm gonna pull it out can you guys see that so clearly it's got new
growth at the tips and that's making it much happier there and then it still got
the growth on the underneath and then you can see also the the roots and
everything on the bottom here so that's coming in real strong and somebody's
asking that aquascape make this pond yes aquascape didn't make this pond and
I do love the aquascape style I would have done it deeper this is a plain Jane
Amazon sword right here and yes I do have a sale going on right now as well
don't leave this video to go check it out though so you can see the roots on
this and then this has new growth coming out the center as well which is where
you want to be looking the roots in the center of the growth forget the top part
of the plant generally speaking so I wanted to show that and it's actually
getting really hot I don't know if you guys can see that pearling there's
there's a plant pearling down there off you can catch that and then we'll roll
over here this is this the lot of fields and then you can see all that down there
so and yeah there are videos of me link it
making the pond Andrew can link those up if he's watching this and then this is
ooh that's no good look at that those guys hopped on there out of
nowhere this is my baby - this is a red stem Thalia I want to show you this so
now the Sun is behind me so you can see my shadow and there's the fish so it's
kind of fun
I'm walking here and there's kebab ah I didn't dig that out would you like to
get in the pond with Dustin would you like to get in with me let's do it I'm
stepping on fishing wire I'm stepping on fishing line about to fall on camera
let me show you the la flair this isn't a little novella that Josh made me get
so yeah this is what we're up to folks thanks for checking it out live that's
the full Sun experiment right there and it's going really well so yep get
excited about another top five coming from dusty hit the like button subscribe
button share button and wish me luck tomorrow I have a final development
meeting for greenhouse 2.0 love you a tank on everybody later oh yeah you're
know how to end it and it from pond
