BOG FILTER for the KOI pond grow on tank - part 1 - design and materials

Hello! This video is part 1 of a series I’m going to do on how I’m building a bog filter (sometimes called wetland filter or veg filter) to add to my filter system on my grow on koi tank.
This first instalment covers the design and materials I am planning on using.
I’ve had loads of inspiration from the excellent ‪@Ozponds‬ channel on UA-cam, so if you’re after more info on big filters and various designs, please check out his channel.
As always, thanks for watching!

Part 2 of this build coming soon… I’ve now built the box, and soon getting ready to get it lined, filled and plumbed in!!

[@allkindsofoutdooractivities]

Nice job!

[@jamespalmer3716]

cant wait for part 2. i watched a video last year (ginger fishy hes called). not sure if youve watched any of his videos. worth a watch if you havnt. i think you and ginger fishy are the best on here for diy above ground ponds in the UK. im confident enough from watching you and ginger fishy to start my own very soon. thanx for the content youve done an amazing job. like i said cant wait for part 2 👍🏻

Sounds like that’s a great setup!

[@capo3645]

I love the brick wall you have around the garden, did it come with the house or did you put it up yourself?

[@chazkoi]

Thanks mate! It was built as part of the house 👍🏻

[@yorkshirekoi2246]

check out my wetland filter build video but bog filters are very different to wetland filters.
