    Thank you. Your airlift design has given me an alternative method for an addition to a filter design I've been working on. All I have to do now is get the garden to build the pond... 😂

    I started doing backwashes on my eazypod just like you're doing a few months ago and it really does help to clear out all the muck. My ez pod gravity feeds to a moving bed, but i do it the same way. Pull the center pipe and let the water backwash through the media till all the muck is gone.

    • @keepingitkoi
      @keepingitkoi  24 дні тому +1

      When I first put it in the pond and water came out before I was ready it was around a foot and a half high but the air wasn't on full power so maybe around 2ft with a good air pump or even higher with a really good one 👍😊
