@@oliverskinner8962 hi mate yeah if you check my other videos I have done loads of different ways with it. I do put filter floss in there now and then but to be honest I never have bad water quality 👍🏼
Hi mate, A nice little update on the pond and fish mate hope you had a great holiday mate. Have you had a chance to send me the poster yet mate I do understand that you are busy with work and the family mate you must let me know what your name is mate. All the best Steve
Alfagrog has a tendency to clog and when it does can be a nightmare to clean because of it’s weight and you lose too much bacteria! I drain my Alfagrog down totally once a week and pour a few buckets of pond water through it till it runs out totally clear! I find by doing that it doesn’t clog up!
My fish did not get on with the NT labs colour enhancer staple. They ate it, but they don't attack it like they do the probiotic. There are a lot of similar ingredients so God knows why, but switched back all the same. You can feed too much colour enhancer as well. It sent my tancho sanke a kind of off-blue tint.
@@andreashessler838 ah fair enough mate my seem to love it tbh I really don’t like changing there food as it can be expensive and if they don’t like it but this time it payed off 👍🏼👍🏼
The red acer do tend to be a bit more delicate and prone to leaf burn in wind or direct sun not as we're having much sun the only thing i can tell you is if it's in a place that gets wind try putting it in a more sheltered position. I have 5 Acer's and the red always suffer in bad weather, you got them at a very good price 👍. Great to see how things are going looking really good 😊. Gwen 🧓
@@GwenGamble-u9v hi gwen thank you ever so much I was really worried about the red one so I’ll try and have a little move around and see if that helps it. Thank you I really appreciate it as I’m very new to keeping the acers 👍🏼👍🏼

@@bobbleskoi thanks mate
Have you thought about putting a fine pond foam from a 3 stage foam set on top of the Alfagrog to catch more fines and get even clearer water ?

For jump guards, I saw another TH-camr use clear floating shelves from Ikea, which have stainless mounting brackets!
Looked like purpose built!
@@ces69 yes I saw that on James the koi whisperer video of his little diy grow on pond looked pretty good 👍🏼
