Brilliant video

Really nice. It's always a cool day to spend at the Adam Byers koi farm.

Koiwholesale don’t give a f about tds and guy that’s sells tds equipment tells me to care about it umm go away 😂😂😂😂 tds my a.ss it’s koi CARP not clown fish😂😂😂

I have been using the pond detox. Great product. Makes my fish want to feed even at 4 degrees

👍🏼 👍🏼 👍🏼

Another great and informative pod cast. 👍🏻 Can't wait to see Dave dressed up as 'Professor Science' 🥼🥽🤣

Very good information. Another fantastic video. I’m learning so much about water quality.

Really good info for everyone, excellent stuff. Cheers 👍

When I kept KOI in Cheshire for several years, I was surprised by the calcium in the electric kettle, but once the water was circulated and mature, I didn't notice that much difference. Blanket weed, which is not found in Japan, similarly disappeared as the pond water matured. More crucially, the annual schedule of keeping there is still a mess and ignores the feeding period, and that has a great deal of room for improvement, doesn't it?

Please do one on ozone

Loving these pod cast's lots of mostly easy to use information and some things that really make you think, well done guy's 👍. Gwen 🧓

Teabagging! That's an entirely different topic surely.. my money is on Dave being your in-house expert.. 👍

Very informative series of podcasts. Keep em coming Joe !

Very interesting watch guys. 👏🏼 👏🏼 Andy helped me out last year and now having a Big blue from him has made a huge difference. 👍🏼 I am definitely going to try out the Complete Pond Detox this year too.

Another great watch full of facts. Having an RO system made by Mr finch has been a game changer. When you see the difference between how koi look when you buy them in Japan only to see them loose quality in our water. It’s not just appearance but koi health that has improved as a result.

I have a baby blue I’m using the flow 1.8 litres per hour is the a good flow ?

Thanks Joe. 1 hour show for an aid promotion for a product that I have yet to be shown of its effectiveness. I am disappointed that no one is showing tests of that product.

The nasty after taste of tap water Andy is easily solved by heating the water and adding a teabag or 2,🤣🤣🤣

I have also been having similar problems for the last 2 years or so. After listening to this I feel like I understand what’s going on a bit better. Keep the chats coming Joe.

Excellent, looking forward to part 2👍

Is there a need for a big blue, if water keepers are using the likes of, Complete Pond Detox or a lacto bacteria?

Hi Joe just love your passion for koi keep ing . Having been involved in the hobby with the Bkks in the 70s and with other early pioneers Notability Hilda and Eric Allen , Peter Wadington still plying his trade Dennis Wordsworth At Shirley Aquatics well into his 70s This was way before You Tube.This hobby has always drawn people who go the distance and beyond also the five minute wonders that have more money than any one .The people who use comesense and knowledge are the only ones who are going to take this hobby forward so we need more Andy Finches Paula Renyolds in an era when it appears more money than ever is being spent on bespoke koi pond high grade koi Filters Treatments for all manner of Parisites that appear to be around In the hobby today

guess i have just been lucky. never had a problem getting rid of parasites with my shower, and not had any parasites for a couple of years. pond only 4 years old though? loving the style of these podcast. enjoying them

As a complete novice, I found this a great conversation! I now want to learn more about water quality and testing!

Another great video full of info guys. Really helpful to all us novices out there. Please keep them coming 🙏

Very interesting and informative. Andy is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to water quality. I believe the late Peter Waddington said it best years ago "first you look after the water, then you look after the fish". (Quote may not be exactly word for word but you get the idea.) He was right. Looking forward to Part 2.👍🏻

Is our general Japanese perception wrong that the majority of chlorine and other harmful ions can be detoxified after treatment by aeration in a pre-tank without pouring directly into the pond?

These pod casts are so interesting and in-depth i will do my best not to miss one in the future, actually sit with a pen and paper because my memory isn't brilliant these days, invaluable information guys 💯 👍. Gwen 🧓

What a fantastic in-depth look into the water. This is an awesome pod cast Guys! I am learning sooo much. Can’t wait for part 2.

Andy is such a great and knowledgeable guy. Helped me understand what purification I needed and great after service, he’s an absolute credit to the hobby

My kh from my tap is 16 My ph from tap is 8.9 My kh in pond is around 7.5 My ph in pond is 7.9 My tds is 600 in pond I do regular topping up but only what the nexus using with two boils and dumps 3 times a week 😂

Another great Pod guys 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻. I agree with Dave on the size discussion it’s great to go big but it must be in balance, water volume, mechanical and bio filtration capability and as Joe said, if heating, related costs. When I built mine, Lau, James, Lee and others were all building and gave me loads of ideas of what I wanted and what I didn’t want. Keep up the good work guys 💪🏻👌🏻

Surely you are blowing the chlorine collected out of your dechlorinator at that pressure ? Especially if u using same dechlorinator for a trickle in aswell 🦊

Cant praise aquaairation highly enough the vid i done on my channel of the easy pod upgrade is bight n day done me nexus two

Does anyone have a timer set up on their pump, so it goes off before feeding.

Keep the good work up guys. Like the ldea of questions.

Nice one gents - Just building a new pond just under 30,000 litres ... pretty good debate .... and has given me food for thought. I have a bespoke aeration system from Brandon as you discussed in the podcast currently being built with the corner piece as you described ..... not convinced about bottom drain however have designed my own version - I am nervous about cocking it up at times however if I'm honest, but the ride has been exhilarating - had to sell a kidney to pay for it all. Only kidding !!!! Have gone for an XL Oase Proficlear premium XL filter system - overfilter as you suggested in episode 1 together with the Proficlear Premium Fleece system to polish the water..... when your down south ( Hampshire) feel free to pop in :)

another good one! love these sunday talks 😁 I had air on my bottomdrain in my previous indoor pond. Had the same experience as Dave. The flow made a kind of votex in the pond and i was only getting big bubbles. My existing pond had normal bottomdrains, i have have taken the domes of, as Joe says it a huge flashpoint for the koi. Dave, about the airbar behind the skimmer. I made that on a timer, so every time the feeder goes on, the air at turns on and keeps the food away from going into the skimmer 😊

Congratulations Boys Amazing Video - love the banter - Just in the process of building a 30,000 litre pond on a wing and a prayer and you guys have highlighted every emotion I have gone through as a hobbyist - '' We don't keep koi we keep water'' is my mantra - Im so glad I caught you guys from week 1 ..... feel free to reach out if you want someone on who has jumped in feet first into the hobby since covid ( I'm on pond version 3) - with little or no experience but willing to give it a go and listen to some sound advice. I look forward to more content soon.

Hi Joe！I'm sure your trip, including this one to Kyushu, was very worthwhile. If so, why don't you visit the Japanese hobbyists next time? Although you all discuss pond construction so seriously, you visit breeders, but no one has visited Japanese enthusiasts to inspect their ponds.

I could not agree more with Dave about bay filters

👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼

Big pipe work from bottom drain to filter and gravity fed is the way to go but each to there own. Fish will only grow to good water quality manual filter clean it every two weeks besides winter. Pays to salt a pond twice or three times a year any way just to keep your fishing looking banging 👍 ponds what are cladded in decking boards I love 😍

A good pound is above ground to save cost you can decide if you go for fibreglass or liner. Four foot is plenty deep enough un heated. Bottom drain good width and length for a good surface Area. All ponds in Japan are only four foot any winter over here your koi will be fine. Venturi a blade or six air stones in one of the back corners of the pond is fine. Best media for Baki showers is lava rock. 10 foot and above width for jumbo koi is the way to go really

Good that, cheers all 👍

I run multibay and great results

Very interesting point's of view and nicely done guy's 👍. Gwen 🧓

Really enjoyed the pod cast. Looking forward to the next one. 👍🏻

Superb video gentlemen! Great conversation. 🫡☕️

Great pod cast some really good info there I also have one bottom drain completely flat bottom 5 m long 2m wide also have a mid feed that can have a 4” oase flouting skimmer in but haven’t yet used it it was bottom drain to nexus mid feed to nexus then I took a nexus out replace with Cetus sieve it didn’t work out for me so now have mid feed to pump over a shower
