😂 It is a great little storage box although I'm just using it as a filing cabinet not a tool box. Hope you enjoyed the rest of the video on your rewatch lol 🙂

Truck has been ordered . I won’t mention the price 😂. Yes I enjoyed the video I’m in the process of redoing my pond with a bottom drain this time so 👍. A sturgeon advice video would b good I would like to treat my pond for parasites . But can’t find any information I ask my pond store they try selling everything 💁

I usually put a bit of concrete under the drain its easier to get it level and stops it sliding about once you've done that put some around the pipe as well to support it so the concrete from mixer can't bend it. Make sure you put quite a bit of weight on the drain when concrete goes on or it will float away. It wants to be central with a good slope into the drain so everything naturally falls to the drain.

Thanks 🙂. A gravity fed filter is the best way to go it keeps the pump away from the dirt so the pump doesn't have to handle solids which it would have to grind up into small pieces so your pump will live a lot longer with a filter before it. Because the pump isn't grinding the dirt into small pieces it make the filters job a lot easier. There are so many more advantages to gravity fed filters but I don't want to write a book in the comments 🙂 There are also so advantages to pump fed its easier and generally cheaper and if you don't have an above ground pond it means you don't have to bury your filter.

It's not too bad with a drum filter as they usually have high flow rates but one of the things you can do occasionally which is what i do to purge my skimmer is close the drain valve let the pumps suck most of the water out of the drum and then open the valve so the water rushes through the system. Thanks for the comment 🙂

@@AdamJulyan always a pleasure to watch your content adam 👍 And you are being relatively consistent 🤣 Take care matey

Yes absolutely it wants a thin coat all around the rim to make sure it sticks really nice but not too much that it causes flange to sit unevenly I should have mentioned that thanks for pointing it out 🙂

@@AdamJulyan no worries thanks for the reply just thought I’d ask love the channel great content liked and subbed :)

It's a good idea to use a rubber boot to hold the drain lid in place it makes it a little easier if maintenance is required in the future. You don't need to cover the clips they will be fine although its best to tighten all rubber boots with and 8mm socket and wrench as a spanner will never get them tight enough and risk them coming off under pressure or time.

@@AdamJulyan Hi Adam, thanks that's great, just thought weed and leaves might get stuck easier on the clips if not covered. Anyway thanks for getting back and have a great summer.

Make sure your fish don't have a parasite and give it a little nip tighten remember it's plastic but it should tighten enough so its pretty well on there.

@@AdamJulyan Thank you Adam.

Yeah some way to actually anchor the drain its self down would be brilliant addition rather than relying on the pipework to hold it in place.

Yeah bottom drains do have their issues but its better overall than a pump in the pond. Thanks 🙂

You cleaned up any conffusion about bottom drains very clear now

Ill have a look into that thanks for commenting 🙂

I also did that it wouldn't shift it at all even tried running the water backward out the drain with a powerful pump and it would move.

@@AdamJulyan wow you`d of thought jet would of just destroyed it wouldn't you.
