That's a bummer that it didn't sort it Matt, but I'm sure you will get it right next try

[@koicentralofficial]

Cheers Les, I could have left it how it was but it wasn't running 100%. I'll get there 👍

[@Sharpeyskoi]

looking good, im sure youll sort it

[@koicentralofficial]

Cheers Sharpey, yeah should have it firing on all cylinders this week 👍

I have a 24000 liter pond with about 30 very large koi for about 26 years. I have an advice for you. You are paying too much time to have crystal clear water in your pond. It is simply not necessary and could be detrimental to your fish health. Just have reasonable clean water using a combination of simple filtration and plants. And save the money for something else!

[@koicentralofficial]

Hi there, I certainly appreciate any advice, but surely an effective biological filtration system is a pretty basic requirement when feeding heavy? And does nothing for cleaning the water. I leave my drum to do the mechanical side of things and that's pretty much it. Kind of wondering where you think I'm over doing it? 👍

Nice one pal. These things are sent to try us!

[@koicentralofficial]

Nothing is straight forward or easy in this hobby 😐👍

[@HumberKoi]

Cant win win em all matey sure you will sort it

[@koicentralofficial]

Think I've come up with a good solution so hopefully have it firing on all cylinders soon 👍

[@HumberKoi]

@@koicentralofficial Sure you will dude

[@johnrodgers2750]

Hi big mistake in reducing to 50mm you should stick with 100mm move your filter forward and use 45% bends like you’re done with the 50mm

[@koicentralofficial]

Hi John, unfortunately I haven't got the room for 100mm 45's. But I've got a third outlet on the back of the drum which I'm intending to use. So will have 2 x 2inch inlets. So hopefully that will solve the issue 👍

Hi Matt, A other great update on the pond and project that you are doing mate. Steve

[@koicentralofficial]

Cheers Steve 👍 The real work starts next week... on the new grow on...if the weather sorts itself out 👍

[@LeTwistedOne]

Have sent you a message Matt bruva as it's the 2" reduction that's causing you're issues go back to 3" and it'll sort it right out 💯🧁👍👍👍
