5500 Gallon Koi Pond - Had bacterial issues - Nexus 220 + Bead

‪@TimWaddington‬ ‪@EvolutionAquaLtd‬
We have been supplying Koi to this pond for many years with very few issues. We have upgraded the filter over the last few years and added a few new Koi each year. This year there was a bad break out of flukes which led onto other issues. Thankfully now all sorted but it will show you what can happen.
The pond is ran on a Nexus 220 via a bottom drain, then the skimmer runs into a 24" K1 Micro bead filter.
You can buy the Nexus 220 at qualitynishikigoi.com/product...

Fighting an ongoing health issue makes me lose sleep. I maintain a pond and can’t quite seem to eradicate an issue. Glad you got it worked out.

Hi @TimWaddington, On this video, for the bacterial issues, you mentioned that you treated with ChloramineT with high does of salt. I have bact issues and my water PH is 8.5. What % of salt i should have, and also standard does of ChloramineT?

Lovely pond and fish . As you said , many people have struggled with parasites this year . Are parasites getting more resistant to treatments ?Can you give details of what you treated them with and how to deal with bacterial infections . Thanks.

Beautiful pond, love the set up... Quick question, I’m about to begin my build and I’m installing a spindrifter gravity fed bottom drain to an easy pod, am I better off cementing the pipe work in place or is there another way you’d recommend? Cheers Steve

Hi Tim, great video thanks, but just a quick FYI, your volumes almost blew my eardrums lol, your talking is hardly audible compared to your into.

[@TimWaddington]
