All I said was “ nice crayons”. Good luck with the sieve Mate , it looks like it will do a job for you. Keep us updated on the Tempest as your media matures 👍
😂😂😂 You was polite compared to the others I had 😂😂😂 Take care buddy 👍🏼
Just subbed in, I was forced into it from the gaffa Bizley 😂. Congratulations on hitting your target 👏
Thanks for joining us - means a lot. You’ll meet Ted now your on the channel - bizleys partner in crime 😂
You always put a smile on my face with your videos. Great job with the sieve, hope it does its job for you.
🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼 Keep you posted.
Nice sieve... If you raise the drain you may be able to fill the back of the sieve with bio-balls plus an air-stone to get a 2 for 1
Followed a link from bisley at Derby koi 👍🏻love the sieve build idea 😊
Ah thank you and thanks for joining the channel - good old Bizley 😂 Yiyr not Roger Williams from East Sussex are you?
🐾🐾👍🏻

Thanks for the support. Hopefully you’ll be glad you popped over 👍🏼 If there’s any uploads you’d like to see just let me know 😊
👍🏻🐾🐾
😂 you do make me laugh 😂 so because of that I'll let the bad hair day go👍
Very neat job with the sieve buddy, hope it serves it's purpose. Can't go wrong if it does the job for a fraction of the cost. That was one thing that annoyed me when I had the eazypod on my old pond, similarly to that what you mentioned with having to boil the media in the tempest multiple times to get it clean-ish. Not only did I have to blast it with the air boil, but it's not uncommon to have to have a bloody agitating stick of some kind to also stir the media whilst it was boiling 😱
Top work man👍
Thanks for the great comments 😊 Hope you have a great rest of the weekend 👍🏼
Nice one mate yep I'm no artist either pleased to see it worked.👍👍
Thanks buddy 👍🏼
You make me laugh every time mate, great job on the shower sieve
keep the vids coming 👍
Thanks for the nice comments - means a lot. Have a great rest of the weekend 😊👍🏼
Looking good. Definitely thinking of a tempest on one of the returns on the build at mo. Good work on the sieve 🤘
Thanks buddy - sieve is still going well. The Tempest has had a couple of cleans now and still surprises me how much it picks up. 👍🏼
Congratulations Dave on reaching 1000 subs, great news onwards and upwards.
Thanks Guys 🙏🏼👍🏼
Nice one mate can't beat of DIY 👌👍
Thanks buddy - let’s see if it works first 😂
@@edenkoipond it will have faith 🤣🤣
Considering the high quality and highly detailed plans 😅 you had on the whiteboard the sieve looks like it's going to do a pretty good job. Will be interesting to see how it does as the algae and muck builds up in it. Cheers.
After forgetting the uv was off it’s having to work overtime. So far it’s been ok 👍🏼 Keep you posted. Best wishes 😊
Nice one you can't beat a bit of DIY, cheers mate! 😉👍
Especially when your tight like me 🤣 Thanks for tuning in 😊👍🏼
I’ve had a tempest for just over a year now and have had no problems at all with it. I clean it every 2-3 days with 1 boil. You need to cover it to stop sunlight getting to it otherwise it will be pea green in a couple of weeks 👍🏼
Thanks for the positive feedback - a few months in now I’m chuffed with it 👍🏼
Great update, nice job on the diy sieve 👍🏻
Thanks buddy 👍🏼
Well done, it works that's the main thing, pond looking great 👍
Hay mark - thanks for the great comment. Hope your having a good weekend 😊👍🏼
@@edenkoipond THANKS, BEEN BUILDING A ROOF OVER HEAT PUMP.
Heat pump 100% has to be on the list of bits this year. Caught flukes earlier - thankfully early and only a few but still a pain 🤦🏼♂️
I have been waiting for you to do this I will try have a go once I have finished my new build I’m going to move my fish and then make a start.
If I can do these things -- anyone can. Here if you have any questions or need help 👍🏼👍🏼
Seen you on derby koi post happy ro subscribe.
Thanks for popping over - hopefully you’ll enjoy it. Really appreciate the support 😊👍🏼
👍🏻🐾🐾
Don't let the water flow over it push it true by making a x.
Completely agree with you on the tempest, the brackets are a complete waste of time.
You need to do a clean weekly that way you only need a couple if boils, I have connected an air pump to mine which allows a proper boil but make sure you leave the return valve open.
I’ve got a spare run off my air pump so will hook it up. Thanks for the great info 👍🏼
That's a nice DIY sieve and you'd be surprised how long that wood will last ! Not everyone can afford a plastic welder and all the bits that go with it !
I’ll only go plastic once the wood shows signs of failing - when I took that old one out the timber was still sound after 4 years 😳 Thanks for the cracking comments 👍🏼😊
Did you get to making a box with your plastic welder? Or is a rigid, high quality box still desired?
Hiya buddy. The boxes I use for my diy showers are called WHAM boxes. They are recycled plastic and strong 💪🏼 👍🏼
@@edenkoipond I was asking if you'd solved the problem, I get decent plastic boxes at work, was going to offer them.
@@Dan-ru2pz sorry - my bad 🤦🏼♂️ I ended up buying a pre-made shower in the end. Thank you for the kind offer though 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
First yaaaay 🍺🍺🍺
👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
Nice one mate, you have a Koi that looks like Stan Laurel !🤔 When do you plan on cleaning the Tempest, once a week or fortnight, not go one yet and just wondered what the regime is? Have a great weekend matey.❤
Deffo weekly! Leaving it 2 weeks (forgetting I brought it 🤦🏼♂️) is too much. Is it the one with the moustache?
@@edenkoipond Show ya on f/b lol
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Gloves?
???
Your hands! Gloves, use gloves :D . Great stuff! Love the work you have done.
Cracking job bud that will work a treat 👍 also I don't know if you've seen any of my latest videos but I have an ultra sieve 3 for sale at the moment it has 2 inlets and one return if interested 👍
I’ll go take a look today - behind on videos at the mo. Sundays usually my catch up day 👍🏼 Hope you are well 😊
Buy a hat 🤣
I can’t - I’ve got the wrong shaped face - a brown bags probably more appropriate 😂
Hi buddy yes as the media matures it will boil better 💯🧁and it will take a ikkle longer at the temps we are at but other than the price I think it's a bloody good piece of kit if used as a polisher all I can say is be patient with it as it does get better 💯🧁👍👍👍
Ps
The DIY sieve looks ace's 🧁👍👍👍
Hey up my man - thanks for the comments. Good to hear that it’ll improve. Like you say, once you get over the initial cost for what it is you can’t fault them - effective and easy to maintain 👍🏼
