Great work Danny. That moving bed is just the best. You have done a great job and that is definitely going to treat your water perfectly. Well done.

Thanks Lau. It should make a big difference for next season. Should be able to smash loads of food into them. I Reckon I can get another 100 litres of media in there still

Interesting update👍. That moving bed is a great addition your system so you should really reap the benefits come next summer👍. Fish are looking good and reducing stocking levels should help those left, moving forward 🤞👍. Keep up the good work 👍🐟🈲😊

Hi Danny. Great job mate, your fish are growing well they look huge now. I have a same filtration set up on a smaller pond, Nitrate levels are what slow my feeding rates down each year.

@dannycurrie1 Жыл бұрын

Cheers buddy. How much media have you got in your ibc? I've never had an issue with nitrate, mines always less in the pond than what comes out that tap 🤷

@@dannycurrie1 Hi Danny. Drum filter to 150ltr K1 moving bed and another return over a metre wide 3 tier shower full of CSM ceramic media. Ammonia and Nitrite no problem Just the Nitrate starts at 50mgl and creeps up to 100mgl over the year. Change 10% water every wk through RO because the tap water is rubbish in East Yorkshire.😂 Keep thinking about trying an anoxic filter. Keep the vids coming mate really enjoyable content.

IF YOU REPLACE ALL OF THE HARD 90S your pump whatever the make, will provide you with an increased approximately 40 to 50 better flow

I don't think you can truly call yourself a serious koi keeper if you're not continually tweaking your pond filtration. 🤣 🤣 That IBC is one big moving bed. Should definitely help with water quality. 👍🏻

@dannycurrie1 Жыл бұрын

A koi pond is never finished that's for sure. Hopefully be able to feed a good amount more next year with all this extra media

@simongrundy6044 Жыл бұрын

very good filter system as you have shoed a pond bomb that hasn't broken down, that means that your water quality is(A +++++++++++++++++++++ OK)

@Simonsimps Жыл бұрын

Missed your videos so I checked to see if you have made any and you have. KZfaq did not put your videos in my subscriber feed :( Just a thought, if the outlets in the IBC get blocked would it not overflow your IBC tank and potentially drain your pond ? Great video, thanks.

@dannycurrie1 Жыл бұрын

Bloody KZfaq. Oh well. In theory if it got blocked it would overflow. Hopefully won't though 🤞 it would only drain a couple of inches though then the drum would shut the pump off. The air pump is keeping the media around the outlet moving and there's no real dirt going in there so hopefully will be ok. I did crack the pump up to full to check and it did handle that fine

@japankoiimport Жыл бұрын

seeing your pond bomb and the smaller and the smaller bio balls your water is 100% spot on as these will not dissolve unless your water needs them to, get rid of everything excluding the helex as it matures so much quicker and does not need so much air to boil +++ 1.5" will give you a maximum return of 3,00 lph under the engine of gravity and a 2 " is only 4,000 litres more and i am half blind at my age i really hope that is not a 30'000 pump that i have just seen as you will need a second mortgage to run it give me3 a ring on the office phone advice is always FOC and you can buy products from anyone else

Danny- what type and size of perforated stainless pipe do you have in there? Any ideas where I’d look for it in the US? Don’t think my local hardware store would have it. TIA

Hi Danny I was looking at an old video where u used fluke solve plus.. can I ask what u done .. Did u feed during treatment? Did u leave your bypass on the whole time? Did u retreat after 1 week and not the 3 they say?.. Did u leave your skimmer on? Sorry but so confused with it all lol.. Thank u Brett

@dannycurrie1 Жыл бұрын

I'll be honest mate, fluke solve plus didn't work for me when I used it as instructed even with bypassing the drum. How I've had the most success is with normal fluke solve, doing a full dose day 1, half day 2, half day 3. Then day 7 doing a full dose of fluke m, then another half day 8 and day 9. Didn't bypass or turn anything off and that worked for me. Not saying you should copy me, just what I did. I think fluke solve plus would have worked if I'd dosed it as above. But doing it as the packet says it didn't work for me
