You'll get through it, water changes and very little food but don't stop feeding otherwise the gel and balls will have nothing to work on. 👍🏿👍🏿

Hey moomin mate 👍🏾 As lau says try to continue as normal but just trickle in some food each day to build up the bacteria. Loving the man cave too 👌🏾

The joys I will have that to come when I refill mine You will get there mate , all the best Mike 👍🏼👍🏼

Hi Ad👍😊. I’m sure we all remember new pond syndrome ☹️. I’m sure your doing the the right things, filter bacteria and pond balls definitely help speed up the process (in my opinion). Make sure the quality of water coming out of your tap, particularly the chlorine, is good or treated if not otherwise you might be putting bad water into your system☹️. You might want to hold off the feeding for a couple of days or cut it down as that will reduce the pressure on the system👍. Just check how you should be viewing the Columbo vials as I think you need to look down from the top with the cap removed🤔. Keep going, you’ll get there😊👍

Hope your through it soon Ad all the best 👍

I'm also suffering this hell right now bubbles froaty ones all over one of my friend tell me be patient relax don't panic mate tank will mature just always check water parameters

Great video. Nice shower build. I like the man cave and the new shower build. Easypod is a work horse.

Hopefully you will get it sorted soon. I remember going through this and water changes every night. BTW you are supposed to take the red lids off and look down into the vial with that columbo test kit. Good luck with it all.

And so it begins! Good luck with it..you’ll get over it soon hopefully I hate the eazypod for that, always leaves muck at the bottom, such a piss take lol

You'll get there Moomin, remember though nitrite is always slower to come down than ammonia, and check the water coming out of the declorinator 👍

You'll get it sorted soon 👍😊

You should consider making yourself a gravel filled bog filter full of plants that will take care of your nitrate problem! By the way beautiful home and beautiful Koi pond!

The norm Ad’s we all go through it one way or another 🤷🏼‍♂️

Just subscribed to your channel your pond is lovely , Carol koi pond

Awful test results. Have never experienced it myself, must be streeful. Hope you solve it. 😀👍

Great update buddy, new pond syndrome is a bloody nightmare mate, i had it last year when i finished my pond i wasn’t expecting it as i used all my old media that had been kept alive but still bloody got it lol ⛩⛩🐟

19.99 for the gel? ripped off mate lol. theyre good kits them columbo ones. hope you get it sorted quickly

Sorry buddy.. I always put some water from a holding tank or some filter Media to boost everything . It will get better buddy Sit back , have a cold one or ten and enjoy the beautiful oasis you have made. See the ammonia has gone down, your readings are getting better Beer it is 🍻🍺

Water changes are good best thing to do tho is add salt , and leave well alone , salt with help fish through it

New pond syndrome is a pain in the backside bud just keep changing the water feeding as little as possible one thing that has worked for me is Oase biokick premium 👍
