Nice to see how the fry are getting on. They’ve grown already. The new camera you have for under the water is very cool! They sure swim fast don’t they. You are a busy guy with all the koi you keep. I bet the koi pond you are taking care of in your neighborhood was quite nice when it was new.
I had a koi fry that swam into the side wall so hard I thought it had broke its back because it spine bent and it swam funny but over night magically its spine straightened and over the following days its swimming improved back to normal, except it seems to have lost movement of its dorsal fin, its permanently down like when they are sick but I think its lost movement as a result of the injury, been that way for a couple of months now. Never give up on your fish, alot of people will put them to sleep but at fry stage they are able to recover alot better.
Yeah i know what you mean Ive got a old fish that's had a little stroke so not got full control of his tail he cant turn Right he seams happy enough Ive had him about 15 years so I just leave him to it 🙂
Always good to see a fry update vid?. Did you ever consider routing you heated water from another pond ie air source heater vs cloverleaf 1 or 2 kw inline heater to cut costs?
Yeah I want to make a central heating system to heat all the ponds but costs. Id love to put a ashp on it but it's not easy to plumb in this system and i really want to make some changed to the tank before committing to a heating system for it.
Great update on the fry always interesting to hear how other people do things. I had a problem with some of mine this year with deformed gills couldn’t get myself to kill them so I’ve just left them to develop and if they survive that’s fine
Yeah you get a few like that I think i noticed one when watching the underwater video They don't seam to live longer than a year Ive had a few in the past but they have never survived long enough to be big fish no idea why but Id rather leave them if they are happy 🙂
Great update Adam. Good underwater footage, a not often enough used method in videos generally. I'd struggle to identify fish colours at this early stage so will leave to the more experienced out there. Stay safe
It is there are supposed to be 1000 but i didn't count them 🙂. I think they will do really well especially as I got them a little earlier than I normally do.
Hi Adam, great video again. Want to ask you about another video from you connected to 4 inch Spindrifter Bottom drain - will the 'pull' on each drain be about a 6 ft diameter - going to have 30,000 litre pump on each. Pond is 24 ft x 14. Not sure if 2 or 3 drains are needed. Your view would be appreciated. Thanks. Tony.
I've seen a few ponds of that size with 2 drains working fine but id be quite tempted to put 3 in and split the load 20k per drain if your using a drum filter i wouldn't hesitate to put 3 drains in and a skimmer to use all 4 inlets of the drum.
@@AdamJulyan Thank you Adam, I think what I will do is have three - 2 Spindrifters at the ends and have one standard bottom drain in the middle. That way all of the pond floor will pull into the drains.
Hi Adam, have you considered fitting one of those light tubes that are being fitted to houses now to bring daylight into darker parts of the building? Alway enjoy your videos thanks.
They look like they have grown very well adam compared to mine lol. They look 2inch or more or is it the camera making them look big? Thanks for the update 👍
Think the "spinner fry" have neurological or swimbladder issues,its going to happen among any population,In the process of rebuilding both main pond and grow on to include ashp and inline heater,much easier to provide a stable environment.Enjoy your videos.
Im pretty sure it's neurological as they only do it at specific times I haven't been able to find that fish since the video I suspect its because they where all a bit stressed due to the camera it must be fine until its stressed or something like that. ASHP on koi ponds are brilliant well in general they are brilliant I just had one installed to heat my entire house maybe next year ill upgrade the fry tank to one.
They fluctuate like crazy on a night my ammonia is about 0.3mg/l on a morning it will be about 0.05mg/l as the filter is so big and the tank so small it build up through the day due to heavy feeding and quickly catches up over night. the Nitrite is a similar story.
Ever thought about underfloor heating on a tank. Not sure the practicalities but it maybe worth looking at for the future. I’ll let you work it all out and I’ll just copy you 😂
Underfloor heating works great around a tank the electric ones are a cheap way to heat a pond but not the most cost efficient to run. its much more efficient to directly heat the water and easier however an underfloor heating system around the side of the tank would be the best way to heat a pond from the fish point of view as there wouldn't be any warm or cold spots.
sell some, keep some, move some, you name it 1000 fry are a lot and I probably wont get any next year as ive run out of room. unless I build another pond 🙂
Thanks. No it's not a profession I know that if i did the good ones would benefit from it but I do it for the love of the fish rather than trying to find one show winner.
Very interesting Video. thank you Adam.
The fry are looking fantastic look forward to seeing more as they grow 🙏🐟🐟🐟🙏
Looking good 👍
Some great looking black and white fry. Some sound advice, thanks Adam. Stay safe and well 👍🏻
Thanks yeah when I get them outside next year in some sunlight I bet there will be some absolute stunners in this lot cant wait 🙂. you to 👍
Good fry Adam! I buy 500 fry too)))

Can’t wait to see how they turn out when they get bigger
Thanks for the Update, love the underwater camera, very informative. Great video!
glad you liked it thanks 🙂
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Awesome video Adam, thanks for sharing 👍
Lovely fish keep them coming
Wow!
The fry are all looking good thanks for the update x
Thank you 🙂

Thanks it turned out that the camera wasn't water proof just splash proof but it still survived lol. I know I only know becasue I was told 🙂.
Are you up for an interview one day in the future for our channel?
That's a lot of fry. Will be interesting to see how much size they put on over the winter.
It is there are supposed to be 1000 but i didn't count them 🙂. I think they will do really well especially as I got them a little earlier than I normally do.
Nice video look forward to the next one
Thanks 👍
Fry look great Adam.
Thanks 🙂
looking well
Thank you so much
Been a while glad to see the fry again. In the process of building a 35000L pond for my koi
Thanks 🙂. Smashing that's a good sized pond
nice update adam liked the underwater footage was just wondering how many thousands of fry you've brought on in your time ?cheers mate
Great video,do you battery storage for your pv panels
Have you thought about putting one of those lights they use for hydroponics over the vat to enhance colours

i cant the roof is all solar panels so I cant cut through it but a skylight would have been a great idea. Thanks
How are last years now there in the other tank with daylight?
8:40 I've had some with bent backs thinks it can be due to the temperature the fry we're hatched at. >>> probably temp fluctuations ?
We're you based,would love to purchase some koi?
What is the flow rate on that system please?
They look like they have grown very well adam compared to mine lol. They look 2inch or more or is it the camera making them look big? Thanks for the update 👍
They are about 2 inch there are some still really small though. Warm water and plenty of food that's all they need to grow 🙂
Which town u live in ?
I love your videos really enjoy seeing the fry come on. Check out Mr bendy at 2:32 lol ❤😂

I am from USA I like to get the fry fish how to get it
When’s next update mate
Tomorrow 🙂
reptile light might help with the colours ;)
It probably would but I spend a lot of the day sat next to the fry tank at the computer and don't want a permanent tan on my right side lol.
@@AdamJulyan hah nice one mate lol
Wer r u in tbe world mate
Hi they look really good what's your ammonia and nitrite levels like thanks
They fluctuate like crazy on a night my ammonia is about 0.3mg/l on a morning it will be about 0.05mg/l as the filter is so big and the tank so small it build up through the day due to heavy feeding and quickly catches up over night. the Nitrite is a similar story.
Thank I have a similar set up to you but my nitrite is all ways high I don't have a trickle in and out is there any think I can do thanks

@@AdamJulyan I was thinking that. I’ve underfloor in the house that runs through plastic pipes with the heat flowing upwards.
What do you do with all the fish at the end of the year
sell some, keep some, move some, you name it 1000 fry are a lot and I probably wont get any next year as ive run out of room. unless I build another pond 🙂
We're do you sell them and how much I would like to buy some
If they cant swim right you toss them over the fence to the guy next too you.or down the toilet
They dont look like French fries
You're a good grower, but you're not interested in the process of culling and keeping the good ones.
Thanks. No it's not a profession I know that if i did the good ones would benefit from it but I do it for the love of the fish rather than trying to find one show winner.
@@AdamJulyan It looks like it. It's a pity, because you have such good skills. Thank you very much.
