    Hi I dosed Lernex for the first time after flukes diagnose and koi have started flashing vigorously, after 4 days from the dose still flashing is it normal?

    • @LauMagroTheFrenchKOInection
      @LauMagroTheFrenchKOInection Před 22 dny

      @niccoc1603 hi, firstly, can I ask, did you use Lernex or Lernex Pro? Flashing after a treatment is a normal reaction and the parasites are getting attacked therefore moving and irritating the fish even more. Did the fish have Gill flukes or skin flukes? You definitely have used the correct dosage for your pond?

    • @niccoc1603
      @niccoc1603 Před 21 dnem

      Hi thank you, I used Lernex , diagnose was for gill flukes, dosage as recommended (320g for 8000l). I am just surprised they are so actively flashing four days into the treatment, definitely more than before the treatment.

    • @LauMagroTheFrenchKOInection
      @LauMagroTheFrenchKOInection Před 21 dnem

      @niccoc1603 Gill flukes are the worst of the two flukes as they lay eggs. So you will need two doses. First one to 'eradicate' the adults, second one to kill the newly hatched flukes. It's difficult to know exactly what is going on in your pond. And I am not familiar with the use of Lernex. But after 4 days, it should be calming down. So unsure what to say on that one..

    🤔🤔🤔 Less fish, less fish food going into the system , add hardy plants 🪴 to the system and slot of them. That will (should balance out ) your nitrate issues. Maybe add a large basket ( BCB )of Special Kitty , kitty litter ( well rinsed ) to the system. The clay somehow helps the health of the fish while absorbing contaminants.

      Hi, it depends what you are trying to achieve and what kind of water you have or filtration you have. But there are 2 methods, either daily with 2g per 1000 litres of water, or weekly (use it in the evening) with 12g per 1000 litres. No need to turn UV off. You can use it with salt but not treatments. Hope this helps.

  • @kris308100
    @kris308100 Před 3 měsíci

    Why do you split your inlet from the bottom drain, one going to easy pod, the other to the multi-bay?. If you had one line from the drain to the easy pod then from the easy pod to your multi bay and then your outlets back to the pond from the multi bay that would be more logical. Also the cleaning of you filters in the multi-bay would be easier as the water has already passed through the easy pod before entering the multi-bay. I would raise that multi-bay to gravity feed it back into the pond.

    • @LauMagroTheFrenchKOInection
      @LauMagroTheFrenchKOInection Před 3 měsíci

      Thank you for your message. Two independent filters in order to have a better flow rate. You can only pull max of 6000 litre per hours via an eazypod. With this system, I can pull 9000 litres an hour.

      Hi again. This is a 3 year old video and pretty much stopped doing videos 6 months ago. I am not a newbie in the world of Koi 😀 I would suggest you look at may be the last few videos and you will see what was achieved with this system, although some parts of the filtration is not always shown or explained in the videos. The eazypod cannot be a lone mechanical filter due to the feeding regime. Also it's quite common in pump fed system to have two mechanical filtration. The benefit for me at the time was to run it on one pump only and the pump outside the pond.

    can I ask how you have managed to get your pump to work over your sleepers I had same pump and because its not self priming it some times would refuse to work. as the pump pipe was above water level.

    • @LauMagroTheFrenchKOInection
      @LauMagroTheFrenchKOInection Před 4 měsíci

      Hi, you just need to fill in the part from above the sleepers (nearest to the pump) with water. Reconnect your pipe and turn the pump on. After that, if it always work. Even if you disconnect your pipes to clean your retro bottom drain, that pipe near the pump will always be full of water so you will never have to prime again.

Stuff it down to the base and rub it all around the base ,under and behind the air ring and I guarantee you will not get any settlement in the base of your nexus or eazypod-do this every clean,it takes about 1 minute and you don’t get wet or dirty.

      Hi, i had a major problem with my tap water, after lab test, 4 metals readings came out at dangerous level even for human. Pond Detox has really helped. First 6 months, I was using it even week, then for 6 months every other week. Now once a month. Readings from tap still as bad but the pond is OK.
