DIY Pond Skimmer Installed & Running.

[@mykoiobsession]

Not surprisingly another amazing and successful project Terry. Your koi have got to be some of the luckiest koi in the world to have a creative designer and builder like you as their owner. Can't wait to see what you decide to build next. Take care.

[@Wrighty]

Hi mate, thank you for your kind comments, it's really appreciated. Most of the things I build are quite easy to do. Some, like the skimmer are harder to fit than build lol. I have got one or two things going around in my head, but not sure what's next yet mate. Thanks again, and take care, Terry.

[@majorbrighton]

Excellent, was it your own design? If you found you needed one, then I'm going to have to fix one too! I would suggest a little net over your overflow stand pipe? Also, how will you drain it for the winter? Great job and I bet that tea was good after the digging! 👍🏻☺️

[@Wrighty]

Hi Steve, It's working really well, and yes it was my design mate. That's not a bad idea with the net on the overflow, it will stop any leaves getting down there. I do switch it of during the winter, but I don't drain it as its covered. I also heat my pond now, so its not necessary. Thanks mate, Terry.

[@ItsWhatIDo]

The only thing that would worry me is if the weir got blocked and you ran out of water in the skimmer. You'd burn your pump out very quickly. How difficult would it be to fit a float switch? Really looks good though. You are definitely a master at building with the PP now.

[@markj3457]

Most modern pumps these days have a automatic cut off if they run dry. All you have to do is replenish the water, and turn the pump off and back on again and the pump will start up again. But a float switch is a good idea.

[@Wrighty]

Hi mate, This skimmer is no different to any other skimmer. Mark is right, most pumps have protection these days. You could fit a float switch, but keeping it free from debris that the skimmer has collected might be a problem. I will give it some thought mate. Thanks, Terry.

Hi Ray, thanks mate. The trouble is, my skimmer is too far from my filter house, and I'd have to dig the path up to get it over there, so it would be quite a job. The basket on my skimmer is quite small holes and seems to catch a lot of smaller debris. It needs a clean daily. Thanks mate, Terry.

[@scottdaniels3033]

@@Wrighty I remember when the boki river was optimized and the nitrates where so low that the Lilly pads had a hard time growing. But honestly mate it's about optimizing the health of your koi and reducing the maintenance. So possibly adding a bog that is able to thrive and only requires trimming of plant over growth and a yearly backwash might get the next level of clear water. As a follower years in the watching I am very curious what you can create. Either way you aren't in any risk of losing me as a dedicated fan to your work.

Hi Scott, thank you for your kind comments and I really appreciate your continued support on KZbin. I totally agree, a bog filter would be an asset to the pond.

I also need somewhere for our cat to do her business as I don't want her doing it in other peoples gardens. Another problem is, my wife tells me I have enough of the garden for my hobby now lol.
