Hi Andy Gaz etc :wink: You will need to run a 2.5 armoured from the existing consumer unit down to your plant area. This can be run as a radial, 32 amp rated As you have already mentioned you will need to upgrade your consumer unit, as the supply will need to be RCD protected. Use I.P. 56 rated sock...

Hi Bob

What's filtering your pond at the moment.

Apart from your bakki shower, got a spare vortex and some K1, if it helps.

Hi Andy

It's a great feeling to get fish in the pond.

Great job, bet your chuffed to bits.

Hi Jen

Without question it would be the first one, and I am sure Mark & Lisa would be the first to agree, whilst the sumi is great, the shiro is also particularly good

Hi Dell Not a bad attitude to have. I showed for the first time last year ( @ National & South East ). It does stress the fish out somewhat, my Ai Goromo thrashed around so much in the bag, that it split its tail a number of times at the top, causing a small section to actually fall off :shock: ...

Yeah Dell, had to share it with the masses.

Great pond you have there, luv the idea of sitting under a roof watching the fish in all weathers, very well throughout.

New my first impression was right.

That’s what you call sumi :D :D

Still think it was the best fish out of the three :shock: , but what do I know, nuffin.

The higher you climb the koi tree, the more you realize how little you know :?
