Hi dude what’s happening with the pond how’s it all going hope ur all well be nice to watch some new vids from you

[@FARMOORKOI]

Handy vid for me, as I am considering an ASHP😀

[@Sneakerweareruk07]

Great video, just subscribed! Currently have the same heater sat at 24 degrees and feeding 12 smaller units a day and fish seem to be loving it 👍🏻

[@thepeoplespond]

Pond looking quality 👍🏼 Looking sharp yourself 😎

[@dkoitv7863]

Haha thanks 💪🏻

[@atsuminaoki9910]

Feeding seems to be going well as the belly is not drooping. From here, our approach is to flesh out and bulk up from around the back to the waiste and tail tube.

[@dkoitv7863]

Cheers for watching 💪🏻

[@atsuminaoki9910]

@@dkoitv7863 6:11 I hope that one day it will become a trend that it is cool not to use such equipment there too. It is a habit of aquarium keeping of other ornamental fish; in the case of KOI it is more important to develop the observational skills to judge the condition of the KOI than testing water quality. The proof is that no one in Japan do such a thing.

[@dkoitv7863]

@atsuminaoki9910 yes we have had this conversation before. If Japan's water was supplied out of my tap they would be testing it.

[@atsuminaoki9910]

@@dkoitv7863 No, the Japanese would still always see, feel and plan for the KOI. It is the same for beginners and experts alike.

[@dkoitv7863]

@@atsuminaoki9910 you should start your own koi channel and show the world how to do everything properly 👍🏻

[@stephengibbon2002]

A up Dave where do you get your saki hikari from mate I’m changing on to it now

[@Dannylambkoitok]

Where did you get your bio chamber from pal? Lovely bit of kit.

[@dkoitv7863]

I had it custom built by JBR plastics 👍🏻 Cheers

[@CATANDEYEKOI]

Looking good Dave. Thermotec always stand out as a decent bit of kit. Stay safe.

[@dkoitv7863]

Indeed will be smashing it in this month 💪🏻

[@davidrevitt7470]

Great pond, what gallon pond is it, how much was your ashp, and is it a 12kw,thanks

[@dkoitv7863]

Yes mate 12kw and the pond is 4800 gallon. I purchased the heater from a fellow hobbyist who closed his 6000 gallon pond and built an 8000 gallon one 🫣🫣

[@davidrevitt7470]

@@dkoitv7863 iam just over 5000 g I have a 12kw ashp, but not a inverter one, seems to take ages to put a couple of degrees in, will watch your consumption, you can buy a plug in meter that will tell you your consumption, thanks

[@martystules8567]

Great channel and content, just subbed 👍 The beginning made me laugh, last winter i had the pond hotter than the house. The things we do 🤣

[@dkoitv7863]

🤣🤣 thank you mate 👍🏻 greatly appreciate this. DB

[@davecooke914]

Great video Dave keep kids cold and koi warm 😂👍

[@dkoitv7863]

Bit of humour 🤣 my kids have watched it and told me it isn't funny cos it's true 🤣🤣 Thanks for watching Dave.

[@bawtrykoipond]

Looking excellent. How have you mounted your shower on top of your filter? Does it sit directly on top or with some kind of bracket?

[@dkoitv7863]

Bit of both there is a bracket/shelf mounted to the wall that sits on top of the boi chamber.

[@LauMagroTheFrenchKOInection]

At the airport, waiting for our flight back home. Was cool to watch your video. Sorry about the tancho. What a bummer. Excellent with the heater. I am already having the same arguments with the heater, and the new pond is not even built yet nor the heater installed 😅

[@dkoitv7863]

Thanks for watching mate. Hope you're of somewhere nice DB

[@nippinkoi8924]

[@dkoitv7863]
