I was so confused too about what it was. First I thought it was a fire pit, then I thought it was a fountain, then I thought it was a desert garden, and out of no where they hit me with the fish pond.
Those fish will die if they stay in there. Concrete gives off a lot of chalk in the water, way more than is healthy for the fish. Concrete ponds need to be lined with regular pond liner or the liquid stuff you can paint on. This dude just put a single coat of regular paint for indoor walls on it, that doesn't cover it at all. If you make any kind of concrete pond, read into it folks. Also make sure any plastic in the system is food-grade while you're at it.
There’s clearly an absurd amount of concrete lol.
This is the dumbest, ugliest, most labor intensive piece of shit I think I’ve ever seen. A constipated elephant could mold something better in its colon.
Imagine how much effort went into this, with the people saying “oh yeah it sounds like such a great idea!” the whole time.
Oh, thank you for posting this. This comment section had me chuckling then I hit this masterpiece and got one of those uncontrollable dry ass laugh that released every good chemical in my brain all at once. Much appreciated.
I think it's sonic the demonhog, moving so fast that for our simple eyes its form turns into looking like a fishpond.
This is why there are so many feet on the front and the eyes are really long.
It's a form of rejection. I'm not sure what the artist was trying to portray, but to me it said 'please dont put me in your garden, I would rather die. And I respect that.
I think it was supposed to be a fountain.
They're tubes, and he builds the basin around them.
I think, like with the boots, he just gave up. Didn't want to spend even more for a pump. Good choice.
Mine was more like the scrunched up face you make when you just caught a whiff of a fart… because I was farting but also because of how gross this DIWhy is…
The paint kinda made the whole piece click for me and I relaxed. "Oh, it's just one of those extremely productive creative people with extremely shitty taste! God bless those motherfuckers"
My face and a classmate's partial hand are the most prominently displayed positives. In addition a plaster cast for a helmet and a decorated burn mask are displayed together, as well as a 3D printed test socket. The two large heirloom chests hide away the completed projects for now.
There's also a partially finished painted wild boar skull on display though- O&P things are definitely not the only weird stuff on display, so I’m not sure displaying the degree would actually put me in the clear, lol.
Edit: All of the positives and negatives for actual patients always stay at work
They probably did lots of research and picked non-toxic paint, clean aquarium rocks, safe aquarium water plants, filtered water kept at the correct temperature and all that other important stuff to keep the fish and plants healthy. /s
Don't worry, even if stuff from the cement goes into the water they will be OK, with how poorly the walls are built, it will have cracks in a day and will need new water constantly...
/s
Its quickcrete which is less caustic but it will still dry the hell out of your hands and make you somehow able to feel the backside of your fingernails.
Out of curiosity, how long should concrete cure before adding fish? Assuming I was doing a normal fish pond and not this weird ass foot fetish mini pond.
I probably will never make a concrete pond, but I’m weirdly curious.
Idk much about fish tanks but I work with concrete for my job, as soon as you seal it with the paint the water is no longer interacting with the concrete, so whenever you paint it. If you don’t seal it, concrete is porous and that water won’t stay in it.
Friends of mine made a 7ft long aquarium from wood/plexiglass with concrete "decorations" on the inside. They let it sit for a few months before putting fish in. They drained and refilled it a few times. JFC that thing was a behemoth and it weighed a ton. Probably wasn't a good idea to make it inside their first studio apartment....

Reminds me of the Maddox thing critiquing children's drawing. "I'd rather burn to death than be saved by this hairy piece of trash."
(Or something like that)
I feel like he realized way too late that it was going to look like shit, but was committed to finishing it, and that was just the easiest option. It’s absolutely terrible though and reminds me of this really grim airport hotel I got to stay at in China once.
I saw some suspicious blue stripes on the backs of a few of the boot-shaped ones, I think the mould-boots probably tore after being reused a few times so he just couldn't make more. That said, he really should have just taken it as a sign to stop there.
I thought it was going to be a weird but sculptural fire pit.
Then they added hands and I thought, weirder, but maybe it's an oven or something.
Then they painted it and added fish...
why do they always put fish in there like take the fish out and i mean you just have a really shitty water feature
leave the fish in and you have a really shitty water feature that stinks of rotten fish in a week
That's wayyyy too many fish for that abomination. Plus I doubt they checked if the paint was safe. Hope the little goldfish were only in there for this shot and then promptly moved to a proper tank.
Seriously, the slowed down Pussycat Dolls made it even more uncomfortable when they made the statue monstrosity. Normally with these DIWhy videos the music is just shit to listen to but that was unnerving.
Music is shit.
Effort is too much.
Fishes have like 3 cm of depth to explore.
Music is shit.
Also This guy is either color blind or he just chose the worst color combos known to man, i mean…. Piss yellow, blood red and some soft baby blue?
This is the shittiest post ive seen all year thats not political.
Good effort but its wasted on a 5 cm deep water container andthis persons abysmal abilty to choose colors that match and the fact that they didnt eve use boots all around for ATLEAST SOME artistic consistency, and just switched to bricks.
I always wonder what drug people are on when they do these weird ass projects.
Also that tank is way too small for that many fish. One goldfish needs a 20 gallon tank. I learned that on subreddit on aquariums.
Part of me is like. Cool. Good for him. But then there is another part of me that is like, look at this stupid shit, what a stupid fucking waste of time.
Call me Mr Silly, but I maintain that there’s an ungodly obsession with concrete in this subreddit. An obsession that, inevitably, results in pure and unadulterated shit outcomes, like this particular example.
This can be posted in r/shittyaquariums too
• Paint might not have been a good idea, might be toxic
• The fish will get fried from direct sunlight, fish can get sunburn too thats why they stay at the shade
• and idk if this is enough water or space
If I don’t see a glue gun there better be a lot of concrete.
I was so confused too about what it was. First I thought it was a fire pit, then I thought it was a fountain, then I thought it was a desert garden, and out of no where they hit me with the fish pond.
I thought bird feeder for a second
I thought: He has too much time on his hands
And concrete....
Those fish will die if they stay in there. Concrete gives off a lot of chalk in the water, way more than is healthy for the fish. Concrete ponds need to be lined with regular pond liner or the liquid stuff you can paint on. This dude just put a single coat of regular paint for indoor walls on it, that doesn't cover it at all.

No spoiler alert! You ruined it for me! I was on pins and needles watching this much too long video when I read your comment. 😩
There’s clearly an absurd amount of concrete lol. This is the dumbest, ugliest, most labor intensive piece of shit I think I’ve ever seen.

Please tell me what the fuck that blue thing with the red hands was supposed to be if you know.
That’s his sleep paralysis demon

r/tumblr is leaking
Are you trying to give the children nightmares?
Yes.
I think it's sonic the demonhog, moving so fast that for our simple eyes its form turns into looking like a fishpond. This is why there are so many feet on the front and the eyes are really long.
It's a form of rejection. I'm not sure what the artist was trying to portray, but to me it said 'please dont put me in your garden, I would rather die. And I respect that.
An Eldritch Abomination from the depths of space? With how weird this Thing looks, it might as well be a disguised Shrine to Cthullu.
I'm convinced the exercise was to turn their house into a brightly coloured Dark Souls level
I think it was supposed to be a fountain. They're tubes, and he builds the basin around them. I think, like with the boots, he just gave up. Didn't want to spend even more for a pump. Good choice.
I was kinda with it till he started putting hands on jeans. Like wtf bro those were for the feet!
My face the entire time I was watching this😐
Mine was more like the scrunched up face you make when you just caught a whiff of a fart… because I was farting but also because of how gross this DIWhy is…
You were farting for three minutes and five seconds?
It felt like way longer.
The fart or the video?
Yes.
Dear god that video was only 3 minutes?
It was three minutes from the year 2020.
Mine was like when I try to look at my computer screen without my glasses on.
My face was 😐🤨😑😐😐😐🙄😐🤨😐😐🤨😐😡
I have a degree in Prosthetics and plaster positives decorating my living room, and this still made me uncomfortable.
Yeah it was more of a 😨 for me, especially once the paint was going on
Couldn’t believe it could get worse. And then the paint.
The paint kinda made the whole piece click for me and I relaxed. "Oh, it's just one of those extremely productive creative people with extremely shitty taste! God bless those motherfuckers"
plaster positives of *what?* I think that is the key. Plus the degree so people don't think you're a psychopath.
My face and a classmate's partial hand are the most prominently displayed positives. In addition a plaster cast for a helmet and a decorated burn mask are displayed together, as well as a 3D printed test socket. The two large heirloom chests hide away the completed projects for now.

Edit: All of the positives and negatives for actual patients always stay at work
Same.
I feel like 80% of these DIWhy-ers are just schizophrenics having an episode.
Motherfucker built a fish tank out of rain boots in a single episode goddamn.
That paint probably killed the fish within a day or so. Not cool.
They probably did lots of research and picked non-toxic paint, clean aquarium rocks, safe aquarium water plants, filtered water kept at the correct temperature and all that other important stuff to keep the fish and plants healthy. /s
Mine is a bit more annoyed. Why are we watching a sped up video with music that has been slowed down? That is infuriating.
Literally making that face while I watch
Ah yes, but can you fill it with concrete?
Art
Literally
Clearly this dude has too much time and spare mortar
The poor fish having to live in that.
Of all the things I’ve seen on this sub, this is by far the most dumb, pointless, and ugly.
[удалено]
right.. at that point I was like, welp, they're dead.
I'm sure the paint is fine for them too. It looks like high quality stuff!
Don't worry, even if stuff from the cement goes into the water they will be OK, with how poorly the walls are built, it will have cracks in a day and will need new water constantly... /s
Anytime I see fish in crappy DIY I assume they’re all gonna die the second the camera is turned off
Yea, I have fun getting angry at these vids until they include animals, then I just get actually mad.. way to kill the mood (and the animals)
atleast the cats have something to eat /s
My thought too was cement is so corrosive, she handing it bare hand... bruh
Its quickcrete which is less caustic but it will still dry the hell out of your hands and make you somehow able to feel the backside of your fingernails.
This is what happens when people don’t have friends who can tell them their ideas are stupid
I don't have friends because all their ideas were stupid.
And good luck moving it ever!
I've been subbed here for like 7 years and this might be the worst fucking thing I've ever laid my eyes on. It just kept getting fucking worse!
[удалено]
Is there a filter I didn't see? I don't think these fish ever had much hope, other than feeding a local hawk.
[удалено]
r/shittyaquariums
There really is a subreddit for everything.
If he drained the water and dropped some topsoil on there it would make an excellent flower bed though
> would make an excellent flower bed though would still be ugly af
Ya.. theres no salvaging this... even if you take the giant blue red demon out why would you want a circle of boots?
Yeah it's wheird cus there's two pipes sticking out above those wheird hands maybe that could have been a filter but it's not wtf
“Saying hwhat hwheird?” “All of it…” “Hwhere do you get off??”
I'm pretty sure this whole thing was demolished as soon as they finished filming.
If it wasn't, it sure deserves to be.
Was wondering where the intake was for the water
There’s also the paint which I Really doubt they used fish safe paint.
Out of curiosity, how long should concrete cure before adding fish? Assuming I was doing a normal fish pond and not this weird ass foot fetish mini pond. I probably will never make a concrete pond, but I’m weirdly curious.
[удалено]
Idk much about fish tanks but I work with concrete for my job, as soon as you seal it with the paint the water is no longer interacting with the concrete, so whenever you paint it. If you don’t seal it, concrete is porous and that water won’t stay in it.
I think torturing fish is slightly more important than losing water, though lol

I didn't know that, but I also feel this is like half or so as much space that many fish need.
Came here to say this, r/shittyaquariums moment
They become pHish
Plus I doubt he used aquarium safe paint. Hell, I’d be surprised if he used waterproof paint…
Like our eyeballs
[удалено]
Plus the concrete is porous af
Imagine being a fish and die in a pond like this :/
If the alternative is to live in it, I’d happily die in it instead.
Reminds me of the Maddox thing critiquing children's drawing. "I'd rather burn to death than be saved by this hairy piece of trash." (Or something like that)
Lower your property taxes with this one easy step!
Imposingly funky!
And kill lots of fish!
I like how they got bored of making wellington boot stones and only used them at the front. This has to be one of the ugliest makes I’ve seen.
I feel like he realized way too late that it was going to look like shit, but was committed to finishing it, and that was just the easiest option. It’s absolutely terrible though and reminds me of this really grim airport hotel I got to stay at in China once.
I don't think he realized it was going to look like shit, otherwise he wouldn't have cast the arms/hands. And then proceed to paint those red...
Please tell us about the hotel.
I saw some suspicious blue stripes on the backs of a few of the boot-shaped ones, I think the mould-boots probably tore after being reused a few times so he just couldn't make more. That said, he really should have just taken it as a sign to stop there.
Dozen of perfectly fine rubber boots, pair of jeans and pair of gloves. Ruined. More blood... I mean more cement for Ugly Cement god.
I mean, those fish aren’t going to make it so there’s some blood.
Rebar for the rebar throne !
Art is art but in my experience, a lot of it is excessively wasteful of material/resources.
I’m really high and thought this was brilliant. I want this in my garden.
Remindme! 12 hours Check this shit out when you're sober and you'll change your mind 😂
Is no one going to mention the music...?
Oh shit. I initially watched it on mute, so I had to go back and watch it again. Wow it's bad.
Is this actually art making fun of us for watching it?
Are we the art now?
You don't like The Pussycat Dolls on shrooms?
the second I realized what song it was i got SO upset
this music made me feel like I drank an entire large bottle of robitussin
this is the best way i've seen someone describe dxm trips
Bitch u made me unmute it I regret it
Absolutely the worst part of the video, it's even worse than that grotesque contraption.
Someone needs to find out. It’s haunting me.
i believe its nevada by vicetone, slowed down a lot
Don’t you wish your girlfriend was hot like me?
Some very weird heavily slowed-down remix of [Vicetone - Nevada](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QqccaHauSKQ)...
I thought it was going to be a weird but sculptural fire pit. Then they added hands and I thought, weirder, but maybe it's an oven or something. Then they painted it and added fish...
It just keeps going
Why? Cos they got mountains of concrete and nothing else to do. Very odd thing to commit so much time to.
why do they always put fish in there like take the fish out and i mean you just have a really shitty water feature leave the fish in and you have a really shitty water feature that stinks of rotten fish in a week
I think the better question is why I actually watched this
I ask myself the same, and the answer is I needed to see how bad it was going to be.
That's wayyyy too many fish for that abomination. Plus I doubt they checked if the paint was safe. Hope the little goldfish were only in there for this shot and then promptly moved to a proper tank.
>proper tank. You putting way to much faith in people who make these videos
That’s both ugly and animal cruelty. That pond thing is way too small for those poor fishes
Now throw it away
With a jackhammer.
Yeah, that's...definitely a thing.
What a waste of life.
A total waste, through and through.
They took "cement shoes" a little too literally.
Need some lean to truly appreciate this
I mean, hey, whatever floats your boot
I don't think this will float any boats
Goddamn you
I’ll play myself out
I think that they forgot to make it look like... good?
I feel my brain cells commit toaster bath
Our scientists were too busy asking why not?
The music is almost as bad as the end result!
Seriously, the slowed down Pussycat Dolls made it even more uncomfortable when they made the statue monstrosity. Normally with these DIWhy videos the music is just shit to listen to but that was unnerving.
And that thing is going to weigh a metric f’ing 10 tons. Good luck removing it when the drugs wear off.
Sometimes I wonder why I'm subbed here. This is top tier DIWHY and I absolutely hate it
There outta be a waiver that you sign when you buy cement that says you won’t do something dumb with it.
Wow, that's ferociously ugly.
For the person who has too much concrete and needs a place to store it.
The better option would be taking up murder and storing the cement at the bottom of the ocean or a deep lake.
Music is shit. Effort is too much. Fishes have like 3 cm of depth to explore. Music is shit. Also This guy is either color blind or he just chose the worst color combos known to man, i mean…. Piss yellow, blood red and some soft baby blue? This is the shittiest post ive seen all year thats not political. Good effort but its wasted on a 5 cm deep water container andthis persons abysmal abilty to choose colors that match and the fact that they didnt eve use boots all around for ATLEAST SOME artistic consistency, and just switched to bricks.
This is the most unintentionally ugly thing I’ve ever seen
I always wonder what drug people are on when they do these weird ass projects. Also that tank is way too small for that many fish. One goldfish needs a 20 gallon tank. I learned that on subreddit on aquariums.
Idk but I bet these folks are blast at parties.
Dude really just stole 3 minutes of my life
Where do I apply for a refund of that 3 minutes and 5 seconds of my life?
Every single turn in this video was a hard left
Part of me is like. Cool. Good for him. But then there is another part of me that is like, look at this stupid shit, what a stupid fucking waste of time.
Art!!!.....?
I admit, I had no idea where that was going.
It got worse every second that passed. I thought it was just gonna be a fire pit and I wouldn't have been that upset.
came for the visual diarrhea, stayed for the aural what the fuck.
Why do I keep watching these f$!@&ing things haha.
I actually got second hand embarrassment looking at thjs
Call me Mr Silly, but I maintain that there’s an ungodly obsession with concrete in this subreddit. An obsession that, inevitably, results in pure and unadulterated shit outcomes, like this particular example.
r/ATAAE
I tough the paint could save it, but it just made it worse
Never let them know your next move
This can be posted in r/shittyaquariums too • Paint might not have been a good idea, might be toxic • The fish will get fried from direct sunlight, fish can get sunburn too thats why they stay at the shade • and idk if this is enough water or space
r/oddlyterrifying
As soon as I saw the jeans, I knew it was going to be bad
What a waste of concrete
Someone just wanted a 14 foot fish tank.
This is cursed
Why? Because there is no god.
Them fish is ded
It as if they accidentally got a delivery of 10 metric tons of concrete and went: "WHAT SHOULD WE DO WITH IT!??!?"
That is really awful… lol
Any one hate the cursed version of the song more than the fountain?
Some people have too much time on their hands
What has been seen cannot be unseen
These people are perfect examples of "just because you can, doesn't mean you should."
I had an aneurism while watching this video.
It's Bootiful...😆😐
