    Nice to see things are clearing up for you. Maybe doubling up the floss might speed up the fines removal and reduce the number of times you need to change it. Just a thought.

    Well it's good to hear some good news on pomfrets pond for a change!! When you've thinned the free floating alge with the floss I'm sure the filters will keep on top of it, cheers mate 👍

    You can reuse filterfloss but if you dont wanna do it every day do a couple of layers on top of each other. then once a 3/4 days you can clean them off and reuse them.

    Floss is the greatest thing. Massive difference in your pond clarity. Floss always needs to be at the top. You can use them again and again, even if they fluff up. I jet was mine then put them in pond water for 10 min and re use them. And yes you will probably have to do that forever but after a while, you will be able to leave it for 2 or 3 days.

    My floss lasts for 5 days under my shower but my pond is crystal clear n well over filtered. Defo worth using it takes out more fines than even a drum filter 😉 👍

    Thanks for an interesting video. I use floss over the top of the alfagrog in my Kockney Koi (KK) multi bay. The floss I buy is from KK, it comes in sheets that are 3-4 times the thickness of your floss.
    The KK floss I use doesn't let particles through like your floss. Plus my filter pre the floss is taking out far finer muck than your filter appears to be filtering out! What filter are you using and are you turning over enough water in your pond? The return flow doesn't look as high as many youtubers ponds I'm seeing.

    Hi mate I also cut the floss to shape and drop it in the top of the oase skimmer it works a treat.

      Be careful, all household soft furnishings have to be fire retardant and that can be toxic for fish!
      To be on the safe side wash throughly in pond water before using!
