    Got into the koi hobby last summer when I was bored of staying home all the time.
    It quickly turned into an obsession and I’ve been loving learning so much about koi, ponds, and filters.
    I unfortunately built my pond last summer without much knowledge and built it without a bottom drain and pretty poor filtration! 🤦🏽‍♂️I’m hoping to completely renovate the pond with a bottom drain, rdf, and maybe a shower filter/moving bed. But unfortunately I am not sure my DIY skills are up to the task and if I’ll have enough time since I’m still working on a doctorate degree in pharmacy.😅
    I’m really glad found this channel and have been learning so much. It’s a pleasure watching all the innovation, DIY projects, care that Terry puts into his pond and koi!🙌🏽

      Hi Asep, and thank you for your kind comments. It's really appreciated. I ran ponds for years and never had a bottom drain. A pond will work perfectly ok on a submersible pond pump. You can now get a retro fit bottom drain which will do the same thing, and it would save you
      re-doing your pond. Just a thought mate. This was my previous pond build which was run on a submersible pump:

      I currently just have a pre filter in my skimmer, pressure filter, and a waterfall filter on a 2000 US gallon pond with 1 large koi and 8 small ones. I thought about retro fitting the bottom drain but my concern with that is it might look unsightly and the koi might injure themselves. I have been looking into maybe at least improving my filters even if I don’t add a bottom drain. I’ve been thinking about getting the oase biotec screenmatic 2 18000 but I’m not sure if it’s worth the money?

      Hi Asep, I don't think there's much difference between seeing a submersible pump to a retrofit bottom drain in the pond. It's a mater of which you prefer. With the screenmatic 2 18000 your still going to have the horrible job of cleaning the foams out once a week, and like you say they are a lot of money. There are better and cheaper filters on the market. Anyway mate, let me know how you get on, Take care, Terry.

      Hi George, and thank you. This filter will take a lot more of the fines out of the water and give better clarity, but the protein skimmer did also take out the proteins as well, where as this one doesn't. I don't suffer too much with foam on my pond that protein causes, and this new filter is also cheaper to run. Hope this explains it a little mate. Take care, Terry.

      @@Wrighty I see. Was all that muck in the bucket from the protein skimmer actually protein or general muck....or fines too?

      It was a mixture of fines and proteins in the bucket on the protein skimmer. This new filter is just taking the real fines solids out. The RDF that my water goes through first filters down to 60 micron. So what were catching in this new filter is smaller than that. thanks mate, Terry.

    Still on the fence on the upflow filters Terry but yours is catching fine's as to what one would do after the two easy pods in my setup with micro k1 I'm happy as is for now the veg filter hear catch's the last of them for me but it is after the two moving k1 beds so it needs looking at. Keep up the good work that home made kick's the EA Tempest to what it is a over priced tube with a cap at each end

      Hi Martyn, and thanks mate. The trouble is with the Tempest is if your pond is anywhere near 3000 gallon you need 2, at that price. Wow! Roll on spring mate. Can't wait to get these covers off. Take care, Terry.

      Yes Terry alot of money for what it is and is it that much better than a easy in a nexus or a pod that's what i keep asking myself

      Hi mate, What I'm hoping with mine is, it will do the job of the filter floss, and I have to say at the moment it is looking good. We'll know better when summer gets here, but it's looking promising mate. Terry.

      Looking at what you have built Terry its what EA should be selling. And they should be looking into the centre Eazy on a nexus and what they can do to that to improve it. Keep up the good work mate

    Far better than original Tempest, more agitation to the media as well which I think is needed, this abs cracking Terry, well done, when do you go into production 👍🏻
