Absolutely puka, the pond is gonna be mega, fish are looking good, can't wait to see the finish, don't rush I'm enjoying the video's of the pond lol, bloody poo pipes, what a nightmare, do you love the poo smell in the morning, now tell me what film that's from, but not the poo, clue another great war film. 😀
Really can't wait to see this up and running now. I suppose that once the fibreglassing is done you can take your time finishing off the pumphouse and getting it all ready. Will be really interesting to see what Matt's got in-store for the moving bed too.
Nice update Lee 👍 I wouldn't bodge or over look the manhole I'd maybe look at exposing the pipe properly and replacing what ever bends or clay pipe that's broken it will be a nightmare to get back in there once the filter house is all done and finished nothing will stick to repair the channel of that clay pipe realistically and when your purge valve is open full bore that's going to wash the ground out underneath the manhole over time and cause a smelly void somewhere I personally would start from scratch re build the manhole put a concrete base in and rebuild it from scratch make a nice new chamber 👍
Hi bud, ponds looking ace I’ve got pond envy a.ready and you’ve not got any water yet. Like you I also use air curtain they look great but do need cleaning every few weeks so ensure it’s accessible. I am interested to see how you are going to enclose the pond as I am working through options now, so get a spurt on please mate😜
I put a timing switch and my pond pumps and air pumps to go off 2 minutes before feeding time, the fish then swim straight to the auto feeder until it goes off. Then 10 minutes after feeding everything comes back on and within a couple of minutes any food that’s not been eaten (there never is any 😂) gets picked up by the skimmer.
Who's Sandra?🤣 - sounds like my misses😁. Well done you have done more than a lot of hobbyists do in 10 years let alone 1 year. Lee, how did you build that curve that looks like a skateboard ramp in your moving bed? Thanks.
Well actually Matt, I wasn't being nasty, with my comment. I was just teasing about the fact that you asked for a strong tea, but my version of strong tea and your version were world's apart. I'm not quite sure why you feel the need to attack me. Re the repair, if you'd have given us a price, we would have paid it...if you don't like what you got I'm afraid you have only yourself to blame for that. I have never been anything, but grateful for the job we paid you to do and have told many people what a good job you did. I'm sorry you feel that we have contributed to you feeling the need to finish glassing, but that's your choice and I wish you well in whatever you choose to do in the future. Regards Chris
Hi Lee, closing my pond down, so was wondering if you’d be interested in some of my koi. I got a lovely diamond sturgeon, that would look amazing in the new pond. Pushing 100cm. Let me know. 👍
Water parameters are spot on best they’ve every been since putting more fish in a large pond, had a cctv camera set up and reviewed it everyday, absolutely nothing
I've been waiting for the day when you come with an excuse to not use Matt to fiberglass your pond. Judging by your comment on Krafty Koi's video, you've found it.
Flying mate! Window will be here shortly too! Buzzing you went with the air curtain idea, put a short up I want to see it!
Thanks hack boi! Good looking forward to having that window here 🤪
Air curtain will be amazing

Thanks peter! Yes the air curtain will be easy to remove from time to time! 🪖🤔
Great to see you at Newark mate and what can i say about the new pond it’s going to be fantastic but you will need a big wall for all the rosettes 👍
Was my pleasure rod! 🙏
Keep up the good work , everything is coming together nicely am amazed you’re done so much work on the pond and 2 shows 👍👏🏻👏🏻
Beginners luck 😉😂 Cheers Wayne
looking good mate
Thanks mate! 🪖👍

Perfect! That’s what I’ll probably do!!!!! 🪖👌🏻
Hi Lee are you still only running pumice in your grow on shower?
Yes mate at the moment
Forgot to say Lee. I’m only in Trimsaran. For the koi.
😉
use ob1 sealant to stick your stainless to shower shelf , ob1 is very strong adhesive and also fish safe ,
Awesome, cheers for the advice bud! 👍👍
Appy days 👌
🤙🪖✊🏼
Who's Sandra?🤣 - sounds like my misses😁. Well done you have done more than a lot of hobbyists do in 10 years let alone 1 year. Lee, how did you build that curve that looks like a skateboard ramp in your moving bed? Thanks.
Lol don’t know her just sounds sexy!
Just done it with concrete mate!
😁😅...so the ramp is to encourage the media to move up in the moving bed before it catches some air stones?
If he turns up ?
🤪
No update for 3 days? Must be finished and half way through removing the garage roof to turn that in to a pond 😂
Haha I wish! Got to work for coin 😂😂
When Matt wants a cup of tea and he asks for it strong, the treacle I made him was too strong, so be warned. ⚠️
@@GRPLiningServices up your prices to cover having to go back for what ever the reason maybe… 🤷🏼♂️

Hi boi! Nate I’ve got enough fish at the moment 🤦♂️
told you it was a good idea
😉🪖
Hi Lee, any advise why all of a sudden my koi have become shy and skittish and take ages to come to the surface to feed?
When this happened to ours, I did a head count and there was one missing. Looked at the cctv and a heron took a fish at 5am that morning. Gutted.
Might be your water parameters I've had that before high nitrites maybe
Perfect comments below 👇🏼
