Hi Tim, that's mint. The water is to die for! Love The filter room and seating area. Thank you for sharing Gents.

[@Smog104]

Attention to detail is first rate very fastidious build , the mitres on the coping slab for instance are perfect 👍 lovely koi too

[@lyonscultivars]

Superb pond and great video pal

[@TimWaddington]

Thanks mate

[@lyonscultivars]

@TimWaddington you show some envy worthy ponds and projects lol. Got me dreaming for sure aha.

[@lyonscultivars]

@TimWaddington quick question as I'm still learning and plan on setting up a larger. (Large for me) pond. 3.6x3m wondering on filtration to cost ratio mostly. And my question is is a bakki shower and a moving bed the same function or do they aid different colony of bacteria for a different purpose. Thanks again for your time bud. Hope to have something worthy or being featured on your channel in the near future. Think I'm now hucked lol

[@TimWaddington]

@@lyonscultivars you need some kind of mechanical filtration that too

[@lyonscultivars]

@TimWaddington ye was hoping to get away with a multibay with foams and jap matting before getting to shower or moving bed. I'm just curious witch is best more effective o. A cost point and also footprint of the umit

[@charlieboyvespa8610]

Lovely pond can see alot of thought has gone into it. Wouldnt it be greatnif these modern ponds had a bit of plant life going on, Lilly pads etc....something for the fish to investigate etc....

[@TimWaddington]

Something for the fish to destroy really. Koi will rip apart any plant.

To stop the lights flickering when inside change the film rate on the phone. Great pond

[@Kitty_Stars-lr1]

👌

[@v3rtex22]

Hi Tim, have you got any videos coming out with systems with a profidrum on them?

[@TimWaddington]

Nope

[@leeoliver4063]

Looking great love the blade as a feature point , is a 220 plus ok to cope with 4k gallons thought he would have gone 320 cracking pond tho and carpet in filter house i give it 6 months lol

[@TimWaddington]

The advanced filter will take care of that

[@daxcastro]

How many gph is the pump running the Waterfall?

[@TimWaddington]

20,000L

[@oscardean6351]

I can’t help thinking tropical fish of a medium size with plants and what not,Rocks, driftwood would be really special. Ray’s Arrawana with River fly turtle and maybe a couple of Koi 👍😂 Great build though I’m very jealous

[@TimWaddington]

Check out aquatic dreams on Tiktok. He has just what you mention

[@gmdodd9018]

Sorry, should have praised the build. It was good to see the heart of the pond, the filter house, free of clutter and obviously planned services routing.

[@jdofb]

Honeslty these identikit ponds with split face tiles dont do alot for me appreciate the work but im not sure id want a copy of everything elese out there atm

[@gmdodd9018]

Can I ask please. The nighttime shot. The illumination, was it purely for above or is there some in pond illumination? Thanks Greg

[@TimWaddington]

The sun was crazy

[@Davidj3]

New pond syndrome forsure. He should do a 50% water change

[@TimWaddington]

Why?

[@Davidj3]

@@TimWaddington water looked cloudy, and his koi were flicking

[@TimWaddington]

@@Davidj3 there’s never ever a situation I can think of where you should ever do a 50% water change, ever. This pond was a week old. The fish are fine

[@Davidj3]

@@TimWaddington I learned that from old Asian guys here in Cali, to break out pond syndrome. Takes about 4 times. But everyone has there own way

[@yankeedoodledandeefirecrac7518]

why does he spend about $40k on a pond or TANK and then only spend $ 1000 on total fish quality??

[@TimWaddington]

The pond is just finished. He will keep his old koi in there and then next year start buying more Koi. Also some people don’t care about quality, they just want to come home, have a beer and enjoy the actual fish.
