Pomfret's Pond

Affordable CCTV security for home and pond. Amazon Blink and Reolink. Discovery of baby Damselflies
I had a quote from a company for a CCTV security system, that came in at £1600. I decided to fit a system myself and did it for less than £200. I then decided to weed the pond embankment, but had to stop when I discovered baby Damselflies! That must have climbed from the pond surface and were hiding under plant leaves.

I always thought that my pond fish only spawned in springtime. But to my surprise they have now spawned late Summer.
Shubunkin back from dead

This Shubunkin was half curled on the bottom of the pond and I thought it was dead. But when I tried to net it, it began to swim. This went on for about 9 months. And miraculously, it's now totally recovered.

Removing underwater lighting and update on Tempest filter airlines.

Eight years ago I fit six underwater lights in the pond. Over the years the cable fixings have come away and one of the lights has sunk to the bottom of the pond. When we discovered that the cable was wrapped around the bottom drain intake, causing all sorts of problems. We decided to remove all the lights and cable.

With cetus sieve filter, what is your pump capacity?
Saludos disculpa como se llama la tela o malla qué usas y de que calibre es 🙏🙏🙏

Just want to say your pond is one of the biggest and nicest natural ponds out of those I subscribe to. Could you do another pond walkthrough video and tell us how things are going ? Pond volume, how many fish, the filtration system (and how that's coping with the fish load) and show a filter clean and a general talk about the maintenance (everyone loves to watch a good filter clean and a bottom drain purge 😉) and perhaps let us watch you giving the koi some food/treats also how often you replace UV bulbs. I know that's a lot but with a bit of editing it would make for a lovely pond update video 👍
Thank you for your kind words and I'll do a pond walk through video, as you request. Thanks for your support.👍
ok👍
Great job there pomf! Good to see you back for the new season 😉👍
Many thanks mate and all the best.👍
Looking absolutely fecking awesome Pomfret bruva 💯👌🧁👍👍👍 Are you going to the national koi show this year ❓ 🧁👍👍👍
Thanks mate, where and when is the koi show this year? cheers. 🍺
The new solar CCTV camera looks like a great piece of kit, certainly appears easy to install and produces a high quality picture. I'll definitely have to check them out. Cheers
Thanks for watching👍
Hi polyfill bio filter good health pond
Could you wrap pond liner around the pipe insulation to hide the grey?
possibly but when established the pipe insulation goes green and the plants also cover it. Thanks.
WOW what a beautiful garden mate - it reminds me of my last house - I was born and raised in Nottingham but emigrated to Newfoundland Canada in 1990. I miss the English gardens. You did a lot of work my friend. I subscribed. I keep Koi carp here in Canada but it is quite the challenge.
Thanks for the Sub and your kind words. All the best for the New Year.
Good job done, getting your drainage in, lovely pond, thank you for sharing, happy new year, best wishes, Tony, Farmoor Koi😀
Thanks for the kind words, all the very best for 2024. 👍
😀@@pomfretspond588
Absolutely fecking love you're garden Pomfret bruva 💯👌🧁👍👍👍 Wicked that you had survivors from your mass spawning would love to see how they progress 💯🧁👍👍👍 Ps Hope you had a cracking Xmas and wishing you a happy new year to you and the family 🧁👍👍👍
Thanks mate, all the best to you and your family for the New Year😍👍
Certainly a lot of work putting in that drainage pipe. I'm so glad I was watching and not the one doing the digging. 😅 So nice to see Roxy helping (?) out as well. Hope you had a wonderful Christmas and will have a Happy New Year. All the best in 2024.
Thanks for watching and all the very best for the New Year.

I would of bought a new gate valve and unscrew the old one and use the part from the new one the put the 4 bolt back
That's a good idea, and I could still do that some time in the future. Cheers. 👍
Are you cleaning the sieve every day ?
Twice a week.👍
Hi, not really had any problems with my tempest, anyway, I have just subbed you, very best wishes, Tony, Farmoor Koi😀
Thanks for your interest. Much apreciated. 👍
Good to see you back mate! 👍
Thanks, all the best.👍
Intrresting solution. I would just remove the old pipe with heat and replace it. Great vid as always.🙂👍
Thank you, mate.👍
👍
Terrific makes thank you.

Cheers Vince, all the best to you.
A sure sign that they are very very happy in your pond. 👍🏻 👍🏻 👍🏻
Thanks. didn't expect spawning it's nearly September. 👍
Cracking video Pomfret bruva and the rest of the pond are having a wicked munch up though 💯👌🧁👍👍👍
Yes, I wondered that. The bigger koi seem to be eating the eggs as fast as there being laid. All the best. 👍
@pomfretspond588 absolutely fecking awesome protein 💪 bruva 💯👌🧁👍👍👍
great video mate
Cheers, how's it going.
@@pomfretspond588 all good thanks trying to move on a few koi but no takers at moment
Your koi are beautiful!
Thank you👍
How low below the water level is the top of your cetus sieve? My pump keeps running dry and shutting down 🤦♂️ only using 2" pipework though 🤔
The weir moves up and down according to the water level. So the the top of the weir is always the same level as the surface of the pond water. Thanks.
Thanks - I'll give it a try
Absolutely outstanding pond i love the natural look
Thanks for your kind words. I built the stone work over the liner. So that when the water is half way up the stonework, the liner can never be seen. 👍
You say you have a "pump"? fit a float switch just in case some thing like this happens again. A float switch can be wired to turn off all electrics to pump, UV, what ever, worth £10 any day!
Would the switch attach to the side of the pond itself? Thanks.
@@pomfretspond588 Ita a float that sits in the pond via a wire, when your water level drops it will automatically turn off the power, doo you tube/google search for it. I had two on mine one for low water and one if my filter blocked up giving high water level.
FMG is good for a lot of parasites but won’t really get rid of Flukes if that’s your problem which will need a specific treatment but I’m not too sure how your Sturgeon will cope as they can’t really handle the kind of treatments required for Koi which is why I’ve never added one to my ponds!
You could add a stray hilding them together just use some inner spacers so they not binding the fittings
Ide blame an impact driver for the messed up screws. Or mabe just one uga duga to many causing the screws to pop. Ide go with stainless steel screws buddy save you having rusting screws within 2 years casukng itntoneventualy happen again.
Good idea, I'll replace them.👍
Aus diesem Grund immer einen Wasserpegelschalter der die Pumpe dann ausschaltet
It looks well!!! How old do they usually live till? Almost at 700 subs now 😂
Could be 20 years!
Fantastic 👍
Cheers, 👍
Who says , fish haven’t got Nine Lives 😅
Super Hard Shubumkin Pomfret bruva 💯🧁👍👍👍
Yes, wouldn't give up.
Great video! Thanks for sharing this.
Thanks for your interest.👍
You can reuse filterfloss but if you dont wanna do it every day do a couple of layers on top of each other. then once a 3/4 days you can clean them off and reuse them.
Thanks.👍
Roxy is beautiful and obviously very intelligent dog. I love how alert she always appears with her ears straight up taking in every sound around her. Fish are looking quite happy as well. Cheers.
Thanks for your kind words. Much apreciated.
Awesome to have you back Pomfret bruva and roxy is looking awesome 🧁💯👌👍👍👍
