This is a beautiful 4000 gallon Koi pond that has been running for 12 months. A lockdown pond.
The pond is run on a Nexus 320 via a single bottom drain.

Then a 24" K1/Advanced filter via the Skimmer line

The Nexus 320 returns via 2 returns back to the pond, through a EVO110UV

The pond had an issue with fines as you see in the video, but it was just heavy algae/blanket weed. Now solved.
The stone is from LBS Ireland and it’s Z stone
Looks fantastic and great to see a sturgeon in a pond with a window, think this is the first one I’ve seen 👍🏻👍🏻
Beautiful pond. So excited to see this one. Magical.
Evening Tim, love that Pond and filter house cracking set up
Beautiful pond. Water clarity is superb and the fish look great. Love the filter shed/house as well...absolutely immaculate. Cheers.
Quality set up. Fine job.
Beautiful pond build love the steps
Such a gorgeous looking pond, cracking filter house 👐
Awesome filter house with the opening roof, what a brilliant idea. Thats a great pond with some really nice koi
😊🙏🏻😊
Love this 👍👍👍👍👍
Such a tidy pond and wow the filter house is so pleasing to the ocd 😂😂
Great job 👏🏼
Nice pond that, the filter house is clever and neat. 👍
Cool filter house that & lovely pond
Love this guys, I’m currently starting to look to build a 4000-5000 gallon raised Koi pond and need a bit of help so will be up to see you soon 👍🏼
Iv had the exact same weed problem, treated with cloverleaf at the weekend and seems to have sorted it 👌
Lush pond!
ANOTHER CRACKING POND TIM THAT WINDOW AND THAT CLADDING JUST SHOWS IT OFF
Nice pond Tim its a like from me nice window
Can I just say the 10 tosai I got off tim this year are brilliant
Beautiful, what are the facing tiles on the pond they are stunning!
Great video Tim, what is the piece of equipment at the end of the stand up pipe near the isolation switch you mention. It look like an upside down 'pint pot'. Thank you.
Good video Tim and something for people to consider that whatever filter you have, nexus or the largest, shiniest drum in the world, if you dont keep algae growth on the pond to a mininum you will always have fine issues. Unless you tell the fish to stop moving about and have no flow through the pond!🤣
Absolutely Simon. Algae has been different the last few years and we see this horrible type more regular now.
The filter shed is cleaner than my house. Exceptional job.
Looks great please can I have the link on the stone cladding please regards tom
Very nice! How the other half live!
Can you ask where he purchased his cladding from please.
Great video Tim love the whole set up, out of interest water blanketweed treatment did you use/recommend?
He used cloverleaf 👍🏻
Sorry Tim I mis heard you when I first watched, I heard he used cloverleaf but then I thought you said that you used a different treatment, sorry ignore me. 👍🏻
@@PhilGsKoiPond I find with blanket weed treatments, different ones work better for some than others
That cladding looks great, really offsets the coping. Do you know what it’s called or where from.
I’ll find out
Tim does your bottom drain pipe have to run in a straight line to your nexus or can it have angle in it say a 45°?
Yeah you have some angles
His sturgeon did well with blanket weed treatments there pains for keeling with it what blanket treatment was it
Cloverleaf I use, never had any issues.
If i have the green algae, But it doesn't wipe off like his did, Is it a good thing to keep or a bad thing ? Obviously id much prefer to see the liner/fiberglass , But does the half inch algae have any benefits if its not falling off ? I was under the impression its all part of the eco system, and if got wiped off it would set the pond back a bit ? Maybe you could throw some light on this Tim, Cheers. Lovely pond btw
My fish are constantly grazing on the short algae that grows on the sides and bottom. If you have a microscope, take a sample and check out how much macro life inhabits it.
Love the channel
Although the premieres in three days or so thing a bit annoying either put a video up or don’t. Not a great tactic to be honest just do more videos more regularly like I said love channel best wishes
Its called biofilm
What is?
@@TimWaddington the algae when its in a light film on the tank its normally found on pebbles in normal dug out ponds
But you could see it come up when u touched it when u said nothings come up 😂 and that problem is going to come back
Which is why I said blanket weed treatment will have to be used more. It’s not just for the long strands
Bloody hell how much would This set a person back. Bloody jealousy I am making one out of sleepers and a 500 quid filter. The filter house would set you back at least 5k
Tim please do a visit to James the koi Whisperer, he's really gone all out on his new build, would be an awesome collaboration between my 2 favourite koi channels👏
