Hi Peter , thanks for watching , the Black Country Boys are a great bunch and real mates . The UV lights last quite some time , for example the one on the sleeper pond was 3 yrs old before i replaced it . 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
@BlackCountryKoi thanks for getting back to me. And yes, it must be good to have a like-minded group

Thank you Sir Richard of Shrewsbury 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
A great video as always Davey 👍 I don't miss cleaning my Jap Matting. Nice little Showa you purchased there. Hope you're well.
ai pine needles acidic 🤷♂️
Not enought tomake an issue here mate , they only shed every couple of yrs 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Ar Bin Ya Me Mon, are you sponsored by Alperex if not you should be 😂 always entertaining shag never a dull moment 👍💪🙏
Cor beat it for a saftey net ar kid , also great for treating slleping sickness along with salt 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
@BlackCountryKoi some say they get amuned to treatments be interesting in knowing if there's any truth in it 🤔
Looking good mate.
Cheers Paul matey 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Morning davey 👍 Seeing inside the filter has given me a few ideas, so I think I will build my own filter 🤔 CHEERS for that, my friend 👏🐟
No probs Gary , if uou need anything else gis a shout buddy 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
You should have jet washed the matting as you had used pp and killed the bacterior ya twat 😊
6 months of leaving that crud in there? And youve been having issues with parasites all summer? 🤔
Hi Bobby , this isnt really what you would class as crud in my opinion , its moredead bacteria shedded from the moving bed . If the jap matting wasnt there this would all be stlling in the pond , so it makes sense to catch it before it entersthe pond. Also i know of jap matting filters that havent been deep cleaned for years with no ill effects , cant see this having an effect on the issues with parasites either buddy 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
@BlackCountryKoi each to their own I suppose. Me personally I wouldnt leave it that long to build up that much
Yet there are people on YT with absolutely spotless set ups and drums that have had just as many issues 🤔. Not sure how you've got to that correlation to be honest.
@andreashessler838 the cleaner i keep my set up the less issues I have. I.e no detritus lingering anywhere degrading the water. Or I'm just really lucky. Funny that
@@bobbyknox9258 Water degradation and parasites are two separate issues. I would suggest that parasites do better in water with better parameters. That makes sense, no? It's stress that let's parasites get a foothold with koi, which is why they're worse when the water temperature is changing.
Great to see you Dave. Glad all is well, and your heat pump is doing the job. Can I just ask, do the tamasabas prefer to eat lower down with sinking pellets rather than at the surface ?
They will eat wherever they can mate , the are like hoovers. Saying that they do like to grub around on the bottom a lot Les. 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
@@BlackCountryKoi Thanks Dave, just getting some knowledge before I order some from Glyn next year, after I've made my pond larger for those ' rugby balls " 😃
Always good to have a good filter deep clean… 🧽 🧽 Nice Showa… 🐟 👍🏼
I agree Andy , just not too often . Cheers buddy 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you, Dave. Your shoutout to my channel in your video means a lot to me; it's truly heartwarming. I am from Runcorn, just about 12 miles from Liverpool. Today, I began working on my new roof, but things haven't progressed as planned. The job is more extensive than anticipated, but I hope to release a video about it soon. Once again, thank you, and take care. - Paul
Your very Welcome Paul , roof is looking sweet matey 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
@@BlackCountryKoiThank you
Cracking update mucca, nice little mod on the drip tray, and a nice new Showa, even tho I dow like Showa 😂👍🏼👌🏼
Cheers mar mate , thoight ide give it a wik till i answered ya ,i know you like that 😂😂😂👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
😂😂😂
Good Video update mar mukka a lot of crap come out of that matting still a lot of maintenance even if it is 6 monthly big love ❤️
Just routine stuff mate ,it all needs maintaining . Big luv mar mate ❤👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Great catch-up the heat pump nigel got last year had to box it in and draws air from pump house works fab 😊
Great idea if you can run it that way ❤👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Do you think air sorce heated is better than the electric pole heaters. Iv be looking at one myself, and it will not work on air temps below 10 degrees. And that's left me scratching my head a bit.
Hi peter , if im honest i thinknthe fish tank heaters did a great job and paird with an stc1000 or inkbird controller they were ver controlable Its my first year with an ASHP and im a bit like you where mine only goes down to 15 🤔 and personally i wold have liked around 8-10. For me its the cost saving on electric thats swayed me to the air soirce , 600watts compared to 1kw on the fish tank heaters 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
@BlackCountryKoi thanks for me. I would not want to keep the pond at a reasonable temperature about 12/15 for winter to leave out the colder spots. But if the ASEP .will not go down to that temp, then I'm left thinking is it worth heating at all .I will see how you get on . And it has to improve for you now surely
Wanted to come over and say hello. I am a subscriber. Thanks for visiting my channel and your kind comments
Thanks Paul , great little channel you have there , ill give you a shout on my next one 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
@@BlackCountryKoi Thanks Dave I appreciate that. Thanks Paul

Ok Dave use a hacksaw to cut a slot in top of the air pump screws & use a flat head or impact driver to loosen them 👍
Im a bit more brutal than that as you saw matey 😂😂👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
@@BlackCountryKoi nothing wrong with that Dave it worked 👍
Dave great video as always mate , your always honest , funny and give out quality information I’ve learned loads from you so don’t be affected by negative comments. You’re a top koi keeper and I think you and your regular viewers know that . Following westcroft got some nice koi in 👍🏻👍🏻
