Still the best pond this 👍🏼 Main reason is because I genuinely think it’s an achievable pond for the vast majority of koi keepers. I know how much those filters cost (and they are certainly not cheap) but when you compare a list of materials for this pond to let’s say a “specialist hobbyist” pond, yours would barely scratch the surface of what the other would in terms of costs. But the results are here for all to see. It’s simple and extremely effective and I’m a big believer in simplicity, don’t over complicate it and you’ve nailed it. I’m a big advocate of Oase filters in general, had them for years on my indoor tropical/discus tanks in the past. So then naturally went down that route with the koi pond. Not only are they quality items, If anything ever does go wrong or you need a question answering, their customer service is just incredible. I hope you’re both well and looking forward to the new season 👍🏼 P.S in ground ponds for life!!!! 😂👍🏼
Thanks Alex, we do really believe in keeping it simple and Oase, like you said those filters aren't cheap and they can produce the same results as these all singing and dancing filters but we love them for the flow you can put through them. We love your pond it just fits your garden so well, simple and elegant with a stunning view 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
SUPERB guys… Got to admit, when I’ve been watching your vids of the pond and koi of that quality and SIZE, I didn’t expect to see that as the pump / filter (heart) of the system. Well done guys……. 🐟⛩
Great video just shows how easy you can make keeping quality koi ! Good quality , uncomplicated filtration and simplicity , great to hear the run through maybe be nice to hear from you guy's more . 👍
Ooh I love a good filter clean video 😍 Brilliant overview of the system and just goes to show you can keep big fish with crystal water on pressure filters and box filters 👌💪💪
Thanks so much for doing this video! I asked you for an overview a few weeks ago on my old UA-cam account, and you truly delivered! Exactly what I wanted to see so thanks again :) I’m just planning my pond build and don’t really want to make the space for a nexus so I think this is exactly what I’m going to do for my setup 👍🏻 Fish are looking wonderful 🤗 Also, I love your auto feeder setup, that’s genius! Keeps it out of sight and stops the fish fighting for their munch!
WOW That was a quick service . i only asked you last night for video and less than 24 hours here it is. I am truly amazed at your filter set up. I was expecting drum filters bio chambers bakki showers ect ect ect. and not a filter house in sight.. That just goes to show you can have a fantastic pond water clarity and beautiful happy koi that are thriving without all the really expensive gear. I would be so proud to have pond like yours. well done guys and girls . a am AMAZED. you should be the advert for oase lol
Cheers Terry we aim to please 😉. Just simplicity mate, the more you put into it the more to go wrong. We do really believe that flow plays a good part in keeping the water clear and the fish happy and healthy. Not to be big headed but we are very proud with what we have accomplished with the pond, from building it ourselves to choosing the best filtration for us and you just can't go wrong running Oase 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Great video,it goes to show that you don’t need everything people tell you as your pond looks mint. I’ve got death cans as well and they do a great job and my water is good. Love the set up 👍
Fish always look amazing👏👍. Filters are obviously working well for your koi and pond set up😊👍. Simple but effective indeed😊👍. Just shows that you don’t have to go down the drum or Nexus route to achieve great filtration 😊
The water coming out of those filters is disgusting but your pond is crystal clear and fish looking awesome so they are obviously doing a great job. I picked up an Oase biosmart 5000 filter not long ago for use on my quarantine tank and it works very well. Oase makes quality products and your set up proves it. Cheers.
Oh sure is Ken, Oase are one of the finest they do as they say remove the crap and leave you with crystal water 😊 cheers mate, glad to hear the biosmart is doing a good job for you 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Hi, I'm interested in the return rectangular 1:02 pipe that comes into your pond, is that concrete or stainless? Could you tell me the dimensions of that product?
I've been using Oase Pond Equipment for over 30 years in my View pump fed system are unbeatable I would never entertain putting a bottom drain in and using all that Evolution Aqua Aqua stuff .German Engineering, I mean just look at the price of those Oase Drum filters. I would never change to anything else,never had water problems always crystal clear no Ammonia or Nitrite,
@JonOng-w6o thanks Jon, yes 2 filters, 2 pumps if something goes wrong with 1 there is always a back up and yes the skimmer is a stand alone unit 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks Dianne, it does work when you run them right and use decent products we love our setup and obviously you do too and if it works why change it. Poor man's setup 😂 😂 no chance 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Lovely job, proof is in the pudding. Well maintained pond and looked after Koi, speaks for itself really. Well done you two. 👍
Cheers Stef, it really is simple 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Pond and koi always look 👀 amazing. And I always enjoy watching ☺
Glad you enjoyed it thanks cesca 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Best pond and the fish are just fab. Never get bored of looking at them. And you spoke! Amazed 😅😅
Hopefully it will help some people.
Thanks Lau means alot ❤👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

Top setup and oh my days you actually spoke
What next...faces in the videos
Hahaha 😂😂😂
No chance lucky 🤣🤣🤣
@@ACKoi
There’s always a chance hahaha

Oh sure is Ken, Oase are one of the finest they do as they say remove the crap and leave you with crystal water 😊 cheers mate, glad to hear the biosmart is doing a good job for you 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I have a much smaller oasis filter... The amount of gunk that it removes is amazing
Honestly this pond has been running 5 years now without a problem we really do rate the Oase filters 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Them biosmart units are amazing people under rate and estimate them
Totally agree with you on that jamie 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Hi, I'm interested in the return rectangular 1:02 pipe that comes into your pond, is that concrete or stainless? Could you tell me the dimensions of that product?
It's plastic ducting from screw fix, 8"×2" we could only get It in white so wrapped it in green felt, its sold by the meter 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
I've been using Oase Pond Equipment for over 30 years in my View pump fed system are unbeatable I would never entertain putting a bottom drain in and using all that Evolution Aqua Aqua stuff .German Engineering, I mean just look at the price of those Oase Drum filters. I would never change to anything else,never had water problems always crystal clear no Ammonia or Nitrite,
Nice setup but why 2 filters 2 motors...or is there a third with the skimmer?
@JonOng-w6o thanks Jon, yes 2 filters, 2 pumps if something goes wrong with 1 there is always a back up and yes the skimmer is a stand alone unit 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
@@ACKoi So is there a 3rd pump for the skimmer or is that somehow connected to one of the other motors?
@JonOng-w6o it's built into the skimmer oase swim skim 50 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
How many litters is your pond if you don’t mind me asking.?
It's about 2000 gallons thanks for the comment Den 👍🏽 👍🏽👍🏽
Keeping it Simples 😊 👍🏻
TRUE cheers Simon 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Mint Guys!
Thanks Shaun 👍🏽 👍🏽👍🏽
Nice and simple just like my setup black box 2 tempest. 1 skimmer somebody said to me poor mans set up
Such snobbery
Works for me
Thanks Dianne, it does work when you run them right and use decent products we love our setup and obviously you do too and if it works why change it.
Poor man's setup 😂 😂 no chance 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Hi guy's 👍 👌 👍 😛!!!
