Really can't wait to see this up and running now. I suppose that once the fibreglassing is done you can take your time finishing off the pumphouse and getting it all ready. Will be really interesting to see what Matt's got in-store for the moving bed too.
Nice update Lee 👍 I wouldn't bodge or over look the manhole I'd maybe look at exposing the pipe properly and replacing what ever bends or clay pipe that's broken it will be a nightmare to get back in there once the filter house is all done and finished nothing will stick to repair the channel of that clay pipe realistically and when your purge valve is open full bore that's going to wash the ground out underneath the manhole over time and cause a smelly void somewhere I personally would start from scratch re build the manhole put a concrete base in and rebuild it from scratch make a nice new chamber 👍
Absolutely puka, the pond is gonna be mega, fish are looking good, can't wait to see the finish, don't rush I'm enjoying the video's of the pond lol, bloody poo pipes, what a nightmare, do you love the poo smell in the morning, now tell me what film that's from, but not the poo, clue another great war film. 😀
Hi bud, ponds looking ace I’ve got pond envy a.ready and you’ve not got any water yet. Like you I also use air curtain they look great but do need cleaning every few weeks so ensure it’s accessible. I am interested to see how you are going to enclose the pond as I am working through options now, so get a spurt on please mate😜
I put a timing switch and my pond pumps and air pumps to go off 2 minutes before feeding time, the fish then swim straight to the auto feeder until it goes off. Then 10 minutes after feeding everything comes back on and within a couple of minutes any food that’s not been eaten (there never is any 😂) gets picked up by the skimmer.
Who's Sandra?🤣 - sounds like my misses😁. Well done you have done more than a lot of hobbyists do in 10 years let alone 1 year. Lee, how did you build that curve that looks like a skateboard ramp in your moving bed? Thanks.
Hi Lee, closing my pond down, so was wondering if you’d be interested in some of my koi. I got a lovely diamond sturgeon, that would look amazing in the new pond. Pushing 100cm. Let me know. 👍
Well actually Matt, I wasn't being nasty, with my comment. I was just teasing about the fact that you asked for a strong tea, but my version of strong tea and your version were world's apart. I'm not quite sure why you feel the need to attack me. Re the repair, if you'd have given us a price, we would have paid it...if you don't like what you got I'm afraid you have only yourself to blame for that. I have never been anything, but grateful for the job we paid you to do and have told many people what a good job you did. I'm sorry you feel that we have contributed to you feeling the need to finish glassing, but that's your choice and I wish you well in whatever you choose to do in the future. Regards Chris
I've been waiting for the day when you come with an excuse to not use Matt to fiberglass your pond. Judging by your comment on Krafty Koi's video, you've found it.
Water parameters are spot on best they’ve every been since putting more fish in a large pond, had a cctv camera set up and reviewed it everyday, absolutely nothing
