AWESOME! Shame we didnt see this "Dave" in person though lol In all seriousness an absolute awesome pond and Koi collection!! Thnaks for filming it :-) Amazing! Nice one Craig
@@madaboutkoi LOL i dont think theres any chance of him setting a channel up, imagine all the questions, its bad enough with Koi and he should know a lot as hes been around forever!!
Yes your right mate. Daves got one there but he cant get the bulb out to change it due to its position. Thats my only concern using UV’s inside a drum i.e. seal degradation
Lovely pond and koi 👍, what sort of flow does he have over the shower please , and the pipe to the right of the shower is return from biobed ,that’s a low flow compared to shower
Its hard to have an exact flow rate due to head loss etc and the fact the pump output is measured by the power the pump is using /revolutions of the pump (1600rpm). At a guess i would say 25000lph. The bio bed is considerably slower. Theres mixed opinions on whats best for a bio bed but the majority believe a slower flow allows the media time to remove the waste more efficiently. However this is a well debated subject like i said.
That is One impressive Setup Dave has, no cut corners, all thought out well for the Life of the Pond and Fish. The Showa in that Pond are Gorgeous. Is that an Agasi Dave has?
I noticed you said that SSF Sankai is one of your favourites. You should treat yourself to a decent Tosai 😉 I agree with you about The Ki Utsuri pal. What an immense koi. It's the only one I have ever seen that I really like. Body ✅ Pattern ✅ Skin ✅ Character ✅
In a anaerobic situation CO2 is not used for the oxigen, but is is the oxigen that is part of your nitrates (have a look at the nitrogen cycle). In a pond situation you will not have any anaerobic areas (that is one of the reasons why you do water changes, to remove those nitrates).

New sub, great 👍 Koi setup, everything 👀 looks pristine, impressive growth on these stunning Koi, what’s the froth on the pond near the shower ?
Thanks for the sub John. The froth will just be protein / DOC’s in the water matey
That must of been an enjoyable days work Craig 😁
Nice upload, pond and koi.

MAD ABOUT KOI! 👍

Hi is the UV not meant to go on the clean side. Had mine on the dirty side and it corroded the seals,???
Yes your right mate. Daves got one there but he cant get the bulb out to change it due to its position. Thats my only concern using UV’s inside a drum i.e. seal degradation
Hi mate, what did you say the cladding was called looking for something similar for mine cheers
Hi matey. Im not sure what dave actually used tbh
Lovely, how high is the splash guards, those stainless steel post, where or who sells them. Thx
He got them from a guy on facebook mate. They are about 25cm tall
@@madaboutkoi thx
Fantastic Craig and of course Mr dodds stunning setup and an obvious keen eye for choosing cracking Koi (eh hem deeper pockets than most 🤣) 👍🏼
Cheers fella 👍🏻👍🏻
@@madaboutkoi I managed to comment without mentioning a certain skimmer 🤔🤣 have a great weekend mate 👍
Thomas Prendiville haha. You talking about that protein skimmer? If so im a disgrace for not finishing i know! 🤣🤣
@@madaboutkoi I'm sure we all have a similar project that's never been finished 😬🤫🤣

Waited ages to see this. Was watching Dave buy the Sanke at Queni in August. Awesome pond.
Thanks Steve. I commented on your plastic weld video regarding where you got it from. Any links matey?

I know it is pretty off topic but does anybody know a good website to stream new movies online?
@Maxton Rene Lately I have been using FlixZone. Just search on google for it =)
@Jake Maxton Definitely, have been watching on Flixzone for years myself :D
Cracking koi pond mind I’ve got the best fancy goldfish pond in County Durham 😉
God I love that Showa 😍

I would take the fish out and make a nice🏖🏝🍹 swimming pool in it🤤
Good video👍

How do you get you on Facebook

Hi good video again, the virkon is adding it to pond good for killing bad bacteria on a weekly basis, keep up the good work 👍
Will the good bacteria be okay with virkon thanks
Its literally a light spray on the drum screen and internals wont really do anything to a 2750g pond matey 👍🏻
I was going to put 2 tablets in pond weekly as that is what I was told, thanks
Mark5tyt Short my opinion its not needed as a regular “in pond” treatment. Good for cleaning filter surfaces though.
