Eric Triplett, aka, The Pond Digger®, owns and operates Exotic Aquatics a Pond Specialty Retail & Warehouse Distribution Center and The Pond Digger Waterscape Design & Construction Company, based in Redlands, California.

His organizations have raised over twenty-five thousand dollars for local charities and non-profit organizations over the years with annual pond tours, including The Original Moonlight Pond Tour® fund raising charity event. The Pond Digger construction crew has appeared in two ABC TV Extreme Home Makeovers, and has hosted more than two dozen different Ponds for Schools™ programs at schools throughout Riverside and San Bernardino counties, installing both disappearing pondless waterfalls and ponds, for kids.

Eric has taught do-it-yourselfers, contractors, garden clubs, men, women and children alike, proper pond construction and pond maintenance techniques through Pond Construction Seminars, Pond Maintenance Seminars and Ponds for Schools seminars that they host each year. Triplett was the lead instructor at the Pond Construction Seminar in the 2007 Pondapalooza National Pond Expo & Conference.  In his spare time he speaks for garden clubs, schools, rotary clubs and quite frankly any passer by that wishes to learn more about water gardens and Koi ponds. Eric specializes in constructing ecologically friendly, low-maintenance, waterscapes for fish and aquatic plants, but more importantly, for people!
