Any day at the seaside is a great day Andy, even if you’re freezing!! lol I’ve been seaglassing in January with numb fingertips but I love it year-round! Bizley was in his element with his tennis ball!! Can’t believe you’re still feeding I’m jealous my friend!! Mine have been 6’ down happily in torpor on the bottom since temps dipped to below freezing here a month ago. I miss seeing them but hopefully all will be well once warmer spring weather comes and they rise back up!! Covering is the best thing I did this year after so much advice about protecting from wind chill. Your koi are looking great Andy! 👍🤗❤️
Thanks Maureen. He loves the sea. Tried getting Graham in, but he wasn't having any of it lol. Yes its never nice covering the pond but it definitely helps. Roll on 2025 warmer weather. But Christmas first and a 25lb turkey to eat 🤣🤣🤣
Bizley looked so happy at the beach. You and Graham definitely looked cold even tho bundled up nicely 😊. Great update. Fingers crossed 🤞 on finding another job.
Couple of jobs that i missed after watching this. Have a great Christmas andy and the team, thanks for all the helpful content this year mate. Hope 2025 brings you good news on the job front 👍🏻
Hope you find another job soon Andy, Re the blanket weed - It definitely seems to have been a year when many have suffered with it. I treated 3 times this year and when it reappeared in November I just left it, like you hoping that the low temps would take care of it. I still have quite a bit in there but it doesn't seem to be causing too much of an issue. I really don't like putting chemicals in the pond if I can help it, hence holding back on a fourth treatment. Good luck Andy 👍
Cheers, mate, a lot of people have suffered with it this year, and I don't like chemicals unless I have to it seems like everything is becoming more resistant to treatments.
Nothing like a nice day a the seaside, and that was definitely nothing like a nice day. 🤣 Bizley certainly didn't seem to mind the cold and wind. Glad to hear that you're doing well, all things considered, and that the koi are settling in nicely for the winter. Take care and stay warm.
Cheers Ken we had a great time I nearly went for a swim myself but I forgot my trunks 🏊♂️ I hope you're doing okay and the weather isn't too bad in Canada this winter 🤞stay safe Andy 👍
At about the same point as you for winter, guessing we've got way colder to come but at least the shortest day is nearly behind us. Looking at cameras too and think the cable is the best option as you have to give it power anyway at least. I'm thinking a power/signal lead from a camera to were my pump and power is and an RJ-45 to Wifi converter to get it online.

You can buy waterproof boxes for underwater photography and then put your existing WiFi camera in it.

Hi Carol, I use tapo cameras in the filter house, but I really want an underwater camera I'm sure I will find something.

Andy where do you buy your grow on youngsters from? They always look quality fish. The shiros you have grown are outstanding.
Hi Paul, they are from the koi Collection always great quality koi at a great price.
