Simply Koi and More Koi

Hi, I have finally got my quarantine tank and Nexus Eazy Pod plumbed in!!!! But not sure if I have a problem with my K1/air pump? The Pod is pump fed, and last night when I finally stopped a couple of annoying little drips from the heater fittings :evil: I had a play at cleaning the K1 by switching ...

Hi Ed,
Yeah was thinking the type you suggest! Cheaper and all that... Plus I can run the waste pipe straight out to flowerbed or divert to drain in winter.

Thank you

Colin

Nice one Gazza!
Some great photo's and nice neat pipe work. How's the re-working of your RO going? Too early to tell I guess?

Kind regards
Colin

Hi, Can anybody help with a query I have? I need to put a hole in my quarantine tank for overflow, what size hole do I need to drill and what size overflow pipe/tank connector do I need? I will be trickling in RO water, but not sure of flow rate as yet? I was thinking 1inch? Thanks in advance Colin :)

Thanks for your input Andy. Sounds like you was very lucky not to of worn a hole in the vortex!
I will defo just run a small shower then....

Thank you Jules.
So even with heavy airation underneath you still get settlement?
I did try it myself some years ago but it wore the media away big time. That was before BHM 2 came out!

Colin

HOLY MOSES!!!! That certainly is some serios head!


Colin

Gazza, Eds, As usual thank you for your insight and thoughts.
Looks like mini shower it is then on the QT!

The meditation went well mate! I saw the light again, it told me to buy a Jumbo Sanke..... lol

Happy New Year Everybody

Colin

Cheers mate! :D I'm off to give myself a Reiki treatment. All this waiting around for stuff to be delivered is driving me crazy! Patience isn't my strongest point... Might have to be some meditation as well......... The Over Enthusiastic Hobbyist Colin :D

Hi all, Was having a little old think today. Nothing new there. It is said that BHM works equally well submerged as in showers! With many of us having to watch our pennies (WATTAGE) how about a gravity fed system with settlement tank/chamber etc then XXXXX amount of BHM loads of air underneath to st...

Sorry guys yet another question

When getting an Eazy Pod ready as the sole filtration, do I need to soak the K1 in P.P. first? Or is that only when K1 is used in fluidised filtration methods?
Thank you.
Colin

Hi Fishy Hands.

Your not wrong. lol I'm giving up smoking soon, so that can pay my heating bill

Colin

Thanks Gin Rin, Yeah will add homemade shower as and when. Cor blimey this hobby is becoming more expensive than first time round. lol. But at least I will be doing the best for my Koi and my piece of mind..... Looking more likely that I shall be going down the soft water/RO route also. Just hope my...

Thank you for your reply Fishy Hands, I have put on some extension lead cable before reading your post. It says Artic cable on it and on the reel it says good for up to 3150 watts. I wired it up and plugged it in and the heater did what it should do without blowing the house up, :shock: so I assume ...
