Beautiful pond 👍. One thought on the acre being poorly. They don’t a lot of wind so, it could be wind scorch, maybe try moving them or, some protection ?

Bezza where did you get those grids on top of your quarantine tank bruv. Also you close to Birmingham?

Are you not making anymore?

I totally get it as I commented on one of your other videos.

I feel exactly the same way you do. If I had known then what I know now and all I’ve had to go through with koi getting sick, I would have never even started keeping koi. At times I feel so overwhelmed and at a loss as to what to do next. I’ve lost 12 koi already this season and will probably lose more. Just one problem after another. Was just about to start our new sleeper pond build but put a hold on it because I recently learned some koi I bought (I’m in the states) may have been infected with KHV. I’m going to have them tested. If it comes back positive, I’m done! I would have to euthanize my entire collection in both my ponds. Thousands of dollars worth of high quality koi. I’ll be totally gutted. I truly hope your koi get well soon. At least saving some of them may make it feel more worth it.

Hi Bezza, new subscriber. I'm considering fitting a retrofit bottom drain. Noticed this vid is about a year old, do you have any more thoughts on how that bottom drain is doing today?...many thanks

I think you can get spare seals for that gate valve mate. Try CD Aquatics.

Looking good nice to watch

Them vortexes are fantastic, I have three of em, great video mate 👍

Just looking at doing a moving bed great job mate have liked and subscribed cheers Andy

Nice set up what air pump has been used on the retrofit bottom drain

Nice setup up what airflow our you using on your Retrofit Bottom drain

Lovely pond mate very similar to mine, looking at getting a blade which one is yours?

Hi Bezza how many litres per minute do you have flowing through your retro drain?

Well done mate, chuffed for ya, can I ask how many virkon do you use? Great update 🙏😊

Great update m8 and well done on the 1k. 👍👍

Great update mate and looks like they were enjoying the qt tank and congratulations on 1k subs mate

Informative video thank you. One question I can't seem to find a definitive answer for is regarding Virkon and UV. I have used like you now are a dose each week after a water change. Seems to work for me. I currently switch off the UV for 24 hours after dosing but I would rather not as it gradually weakens the UV each time it goes off and on from what I understand. Do you or anyone have a view on, if switching the UV off is a requirement or not. Keep up the excellent videos.

Glad everything looks like its going in the right direction for you, bang on regarding conflicting and wrong advice on social media 👍

Nice to catch up with you Bezza, sounds like your toned down approach is paying dividends. Nice Tosai you picked up for the sex den. Good to see the youngster enjoying the hobby. Glad your getting out on the bank🎣 and good luck with the Kujaku 👍

Missed you at the show pal, some nice new additions you got from there. Well done on the 1k 👌🏼👍🏼

Loving the pond, what glass you using round the pond and brackets? Had one of my fish jump out of pond other day.

Nice update 👍 was a great day 👍 at the National. Congratulations 🎊 on reaching 1K subscribers ⛩🐟⛩

Nice set up bro… ❤

Nice update Bezza. BIG Congrats on the 1,000 subs mate.🍾👍🏼 I seem to have reached 100 and just stopped…. 🤷🏼‍♂️😂 Glad to see you have got a grip of the issues. Absolutely, if not showing your koi, they don’t need to be huge, or over fed. You may have seen on my channel, my current pond is smaller than yours, and I have only ever fed 2 to 4 times a day. Only 4 times in peak summer temps. So far so good mate……🤞🏼 Nice new koi and keep the updates coming…..👍🏼

Good to meet you at the show pal , and congrats on the 1000

Good update The correct dose for virkon aquatic is 1 tablet to 500 gallons they changed the formulation about 12 months ago so youre actually dosing at the normal rate 😂 Salt bath 1g per 10 litres of water

Well done mate glad your getting ontop it's good to see keepers can get through it, Robs a wealth of knowledge top Man, good luck going forward 👍 👏 🙏

Hi John. The Yami is from Suda. I did contact you before your holiday to see if you courier koi. I am very interested in the Gin Rin Showa with the heavy Sumi, how much is it please ? I am also after a Gin Rin Goshiki (I do like the one in the vid but prefer one with a bit more beni). Can you send me video of what koi you have and how much they are please ?😅

I honestly think the lack of access amateur fish keepers have to antibiotics is a scandal. Hundreds of thousands of pounds worth of fish are dying needlessly. If that was happening to dogs they’d overthrow the government. I don’t understand why fish keepers couldn’t attend a VET approved course that would allow you to vaccinate your fish. Your licence would have a 3 to 5 year expiry date to ensure you keep up with any industry changes. Obviously you’d have still have to get a vet to prescribe the antibiotics, which gives them additional income. The industry needs to have a campaign to get the veterinary industry and government to approve such a course imo. I’d keep a few gold fish in your quarantine tank, they are not a trouble and not a lot of cost if you lose a couple. Thanks for your updates.

Sorry about the two you lost, hope the others improve, best wishes, Tony😀

Sorry to hear about the loss of your 2 koi 😢

Need to keep feeding so filter builds self up or us filter start gel and don't keep changs water ever day have little bit of bad suf kick start fill then one all fish tread buy some small fish us it as grown if down essex pop in got lot fish for sale in shop

can’t you just get some cheap gold fish they will be fine with getting treated when the koi are sick

Sodium Thiosulphate will neautralise chloramine T, don't use the ST mate

Fingers crossed you've come through it now mate, and things keep getting better 👍🏼

Keep a few goldfish or shubumpkins in there to keep it running n the filter mature. They will also keep any poorly koi company when u av to add one as they can get depressed on their own 👍🐟

Hopefully you don't have an other problem 👍🏻

I think you should always keep your quarantine tank up and running so as the filter is seasoned and its ready for the next problem,

Sad about your 2 fish Bezz hope you get to the bottom of the issue, also sad about the G&S im new to the hobby but all i keep hearing is G&S people paying their money and never hearing anything i just dont see the point in them if its not doing what it should, someone needs to get a grip of it people just dont have the trust in G&S anymore its such a shame.

Great use of space and building your own this is what im looking at doing in my filter house

M8 I sell qc tank they 5ft by 3th by 3th with 3 Inc drain at 600 pound they on my video

good job on the qt

Mate you need to give me a shout for your bits and bobs for the set up ill sort you out

Hey! Really liking the content at the moment. I’ve just installed a Retrofit bottom drain into my Koi pond. Working well, but I’m thinking I want to move away from the old canister filter. Koi are getting huge now. Any recommendations on the next filter choice for me? Price is everything at the moment as I’m sure you can imagine. Expensive hobby 😂. Kind regards

Just the job that QT tank mate, hopefully it helps the 2 that you've got in there 👌🏼

Looks great. Job well done

I've been building a little pond myself today, you couldn't have said cheers at a more perfect time i was literally sipping my san Miguel 😂. looking great mate can't wait for the next instalment

Good work mate 🐟👍 I'd do that if i had space

Sorry to hear about the fish when will you koi keepers learn give your fish a winter stop heating your ponds never ever had heating on mine never lost a fish or parasite problems things die off in cold weather
