    Koi was flashing there, I recommend treatment for flukes. Brilliant upgrade on the pond, looks so much better and the koi will be far more happier in it. 👍

    Nice work 👍 When building a sleeper pond do you recommend laying concrete under the first layer of sleepers ? Or is this not required ? Thanks.

    How many gallons or Liters fit in there

    • @koiservices6694
      @koiservices6694  10 місяців тому

      It’s around 1,200 gallons / 5,400 ltrs
      But you could easily make it bigger by digging down 3 ft .
      To work out the gallonage
      Length in feet x width in feet x depth in feet x6.25 will give you gallons 👍🏽 x that by 4.5 and it will give you ltrs 👍🏽

      @@koiservices6694 I am afraid that pond will 100% bow over time. Sleepers are fine if used flat and drilled with rods all the way through, but even then you can't go too deep as the water pressure is too much. This is a very common mistake unfortunately
