    Carl, for the new tank you must *do the cold-water, high-flow river/stream tank with NATIVE UK FISH* like shoal of stream minnow, spined loach, and shoal of gudgeons. (Thats a whole episode with nets, undewater cameras and waiders) For aquatic plants use simple Vallisneria, it will look absolutely brilliant in the flow and is super low maintenance. No CO2, low light. The most expensive unit will be the chiller and larger turn-around filter + powerheads. Use natural gravel, I prefer it to come from the beach, you will get more varied sizes and that contributes to the natural look. Add large pebbles and rounded stones. Make sure you internalize recent aquascaping techniques by watching : "HOW TO BUILD THE PERFECT AQUASCAPE FOR CONTESTS - BY WORLD CHAMPION JOSH SIM"

    Carl, for the second tank you could handpick some baby Koi. Then watch them grow from Tosai to Nisai. And watch how coloration and patterns start to grow and develop on every individual. In the end you can keep your most perfect ones for the large pond.

    Hi Carl, I would think twice about the climbing plant above the pond, as it will increase your pond maintenance, with falling leaves and depending on what plant it is, it will turn your water pH levels up or down.

      @@fishwithcarl Hi Carl & Chris, I also have a koi pond in the back garden. Next to the pond we have fence with a climbing plant, only during the spring you can see a yellow glow at the water surface. Some individual koi also seem to be bothered by it... Luckily it is just for a small period of time, but this plant is next to the pond. Directly above the pond would increase the spores that reach your water surface.

Its necessary to spend some money for proper equipment. The pond is gorgeous and so are your fish. You're doing well

Long story short we now have gold fish with trout spots all over their sides and trout with long gold fish fins and a goldish color. Cheers

    Stumbled upon your channel by accident and love how wholesome your family is, I’ve always known about koi but never appreciated their beauty until I watched your videos. Typically I enjoy fresh and saltwater fish. Now you have me planning a pond of my own in the not so distant future, I was wondering what are some things you wish you knew before hand? How expensive is a quality koi pond? What is the price range of various koi? (Is it cheaper to buy juvenile koi and grow them out yourself?) and lastly what is the general space rule for keeping koi (how many/ ____ gallon(litre) I thought these points would be good for an introductory to koi video that I may selfishly love to see what you have to say and may give you an excuse to get back out to Japan :) keep up the amazing work Carl!

    Hey Carl, I had commented on your past video in which you built the koi pond. In that comment I talked about how I have a short attention span and that your video helped me find some calmness. Recently, I've hit a rough patch in life and have been stressing out a lot due to it. That's when I remembered about your channel, I searched for an update about the koi pond and came across this video. The gentle and wholesome vibe your videos have is something that I think is really precious, it helps me calm down and brightens up my mood. Your videos, you and the koi pond have become a comfort space for me which I come back to whenever I feel low. Thank you so much! ❤

    Carl, You should defenetly make a tropical tank in that empty tank in the room. With much smaller tropical fishes, driftwoods and lots of plants. Don't worry about the algee. Put 1 inces of dirt or mud (collect it from a nature lake, or river) on to the bottom of the aquarium, 2 inces of sand on top of it, add some driftwood, and rocks plant the plants 1--1,5 inc deep into the sand, add 1 inc of leaf leathers the top of the sand, the water and the fishes, some algie eaters, coridora catfishes, Kuli loaches, a large group ot neon tertras, rasboras, guppies or any type of this will thiving in there. You can add shimps, and snails too. Feed them 2-3 days and dont overfeed them and it will be fine.

    A brackish themed tank would be great, a collaboration with George farmer would be cool

    Use bristlenoses and shrimp for youre aquarium. They clean up youre tank for you and are great to have. For the window use a glass scraper with metal. Works much quicker and doesnt scratch the window.

    carl i would suggest a flipper max or something similar to help clean the glass in your pond, would make life so much easier for you

    Koi's are marvelous fish. I am obsessed with them and I want to eventually get a few.

    To be honest I've never understood the fascination with carp and koi but each to there own as for your new tank in the house I would suggest getting some predatory fish ,I used to keep snake heads and would recommend them to anyone wanting a pet fish as they can be incredibly personable and feeding time never disappoints .Or make it a British tank fill it with local river fish a small group of perch would bring you hours of fish watching

    With the spare tank, I think you should do a uk native species, keep it simple and don't over stock it. Set up a trickle system on that too.
    Cracking video may I add.
    I also build and maintain ponds up in North wales, I did send you a dm about pond tours.

    Nice one Carl tiger Oscar’s are lovely for the tank just rocks and gravel will do they will uproot the plants 😊 I agree with the comment about climbing plants this will create extra work maybe use tinted Perspex or tiles instead good luck 😎😎🙏

    Make a native fish tank for the empty one and add like barble, chub and bream etc. Would be so dope to see how our native fish look in a fish tank!
