Nice one Daz, I have been running a mk1 version ozone unit for 4 years or so and found that the koi heal any knocks much quicker without having to net and treat. Also fins heal in days if they get a split. I ve also never had any water quality problems. It keeps air diffuser clean and is really good at dealing with tannings. I'd rate it more effective than weekly virkon treatments with extra benefits. I do believe the newer mk2 version is more efficient. Be good to see more reviews on people using them
The video i did last week shows the product simon is talking about. Seems in this hobby we are little scared of using OZONE , very ready to chuck in treatment after treatment. £30 every 6 months for something capable of destroying bad bacteria seems a no brainer to me. Worth doing some research on its use with salmon farming. The right dose is key.
Nice one Daz. Yeah I also watched Dave at Orchard Koi’s video on these. I am defo considering one but just need to look at how i would set it up. As currently my air pump runs my fluid bed filter from 3 of the 4 taps, with the last tap being to the bottom drain. Obviously I don’t really want the filter going off for hour at a time etc. altho, probably wouldn’t hurt too much. 🤔
Orchard koi the other day did a reveal and explanation with Ozone and I’ve been using the same product from Eco Filtration for nearly 6 months and which in a few weeks it needs the main body changing which is only cost £60 as you’ve stated Skeggy £50 per bottle for certain products it’s a no brainer specially as I used to use Ozone when doing marining which connected to the protein Skimmer
Eco are the wholesales of them exactly the same units I can get all the spares too It's the control unit and cell that need replacing not usually the main body but I'll check with Sam
i got a 30w UV ozone. Got i on my old indoor pond. forgot about it when i took it downe 😅 just mounted it on my new pond today because of this video! great info about to run it on a timer an let it reset and til buld replacement 🤔 what is the maximum watervolume they treat, and what airflow is recommended airflow thru it? :-)
Hi Daz. i've just ordered one from you . thanks. im assuming these have to be stored in a dry place and that when the timer is off for the hour interval the air still goes to my bottom drain?
Yes the air still runs through obviously your plug will have to remain dry but they are designed for wet areas like filter houses but with all things the dryer they are the better
Well they say they cope with very large ponds If you read what I've put on the website it's very batum the info they give .. when people talk of very large ponds they are usually talkk g in excess of 5000 gallons
Have just spoken to the manufacturer they will deal with much larger ponds than that the factor is time the bigger the pond the longer it takes to catch up as it were but once its got over the initial catch up it copes really well

Yes good to hear your experience thanks
Very informative Le-Daz. 👌🏼👌🏼
Im watching orchard koi's progression 👍🏻

Yer the wholesales is eco .. so exactly the same unit
They do a good job from my experience using them. Much better and safer than a lot of chemicals.
Can I link to your video ?
@@skeggy yeah no problem 👍
@OrchardKoi shame you got kne with a problem but eco are excellent at dealing with stuff in my experience of them supplying me
These sound very good , a lot of benefits , definitely going to look into these
Very interesting subject Daz, might research these 👍🏼
Great video Daz 👍

Put it to the bottom drain you don't switch off the pump just the generator a bit like if you turn your uv off you don't turn off your pump
Ahhh….. 🤔
Yes, I was a bit silly there wasn’t I…………. 😂
@AndysKoiPuddle no such thing as a silly question mate

The mk1 version has an inner sleave that I replace once a year. I'm not sure if mk2 is the same. Never had to replace body
I got one ordered should be here Tuesday Guna put it on air bar see how it go
I came across someone discussing this the other day, sounds 👍
Very interesting. I might invest in one of these.
I'm sure you wouldn't regret it
Cant say i know anything about ozone generator's, heard them mentioned here & there....but definitely something im going to research, and possibly fit
Seem like a good option to me
Like it. 👍🏻 I'll have a look later. Could grab it next weekend at Newark
If you can find one there
Cause I'm in Denmark
Ah. Thought you'd have been at Newark. OK. I'll get in and have look later 👍🏻
@1973cashy think I've been saying every available place for 3 months in in Denmark that weekend 🤣

Been thinking about getting one of these Skeggy. Keep one for me will get Renee to give you a bell 🔔 Monday 👍
Will do
You'll know far more about it than me with your reef system
@@skeggy used them before. Great piece of kit if used properly 👌
hi pal would work with
Ceramic Cylinder Air Stone
I see no reason why not
@@skeggy ok pal thank you
Can they be run with an air ring diffuser instead of a big dome one ?
I'll probably take one When I get paid Daz. Anything that helps eh 👍
Nice one matey 👍
Atoms aren't molecules.

Would it work with big airstones? if so maybe good on grow on tanks.
There is no reason it won't because it chemically changes the oxygen the delivery method doesn't really matter
@@skeggy I thought so and thanks for the reply I will have a think about it for mt fry tanks which are run on air.
Do they work on any size pond . So are they come in one size .my pond is 6000 gallon pond
Well they say they cope with very large ponds

@@skeggy Thanks for your advice 👍
When we have to replace the ozone part in six months.will you be selling them 👍
@reginaldtompkins2005 yes I'll be listing them soon they are about 30 quid
Been considering one of these for a few days now. Hearing of more hobbyist using these. Could be the way forward.
I think so
Very Interesting Skeggy
