    Nice update Dave. I am amazed how you can clean the nexus so well. Not as easy with the eazypod as you can't lift up the cage. Definitely a filter I would have if I wasn't pump fed with a raised pond.
    You so made me giggle with the hose and the washing...
    Take care

    Had one of these for a few years before my expensive drum.
    Did a great job. One note. . Crap collects under the easy, I used a long handled hoselock watering spray . Angled the nozzle to clean the underneath.

      @@edenkoipond I have a profi combi 30 off Darren at Absolute Koi. Also.. Be aware of loads of crap building up inside the legs.. It harbours nasties.. I'd clean these out every few weeks with a vacuum ... If you have any old sinking bio balls in the outer ring.. The vacuuming will remove them!

    All looking good buddy👌 Did you get a wallop from the Mrs is what I want to know?🤔😂 Although drums do, do a lot of the work load for you, they definitely do still require maintenance to a certain extent, such as making sure the float switch is good now and then🤐😁 seriously though, pond is looking great. Any plans for any more fish this season?

      @@edenkoipond yeah that's what I meant the inner chamber/eazy chamber I'm surprised you haven't had a lot of blanket weed this year we've had so much that it's been blocking the DracoDrum solum 25 waste shoot. Only a 2 minute job once a week but I can't imagine how bad a nexus would be if a drum is clogging up 😱 I would still highly recommend it but a sieve would probably be better for blanket weed and floating objects. If I did it again I'd have an ultrasieve III pump feeding the drum and place the drum above the moving bed so it flows in via gravity.
