    Hi Andy buy a lean too I’m sure you can find one about that size if not come off the wall use 4x2 on length and width spanning over every 600mm and use 4x4 for your posts should do the trick as for polycarbonate sheets there a bit pricey now

    Nice update Andy, glad the water has settled. That filter was in some state… 😱
    I recently got the Ninja wood fire grill too, its vey good, kinda cheating, but very good… 😂
    Another great day to the Koi Collection coming up then….
    I’m working, but I WILL get to one of them one day…. 😂🤣😂

    Andy, hope your knee feels better soon. 🙏🏻 Ooh a canopy will be real nice over your patio for sunshade, but also if it’s raining and warm out, you can all still enjoy sitting, eating & viewing the koi pond out there! 👍And that ninja smoker is real good! I can attest that wagyu burgers and chicken kabobs taste great from it! 😂😊❤

      Thanks Maureen hopefully my knee gets better so I can make a start on it. Maybe your brother would come and give me a hand 🤣 but it will be nice for sitting out by the pond.

    Wow that filter cartridge, good job you have it in place, I used to use that test kit but was never happy with, I changed to nt labs after watching one of your previous reviews and been happy since.

    @PondKoiTipsTricks 3 месяца назад +1

    Because of releasing sewage into the rivers, they have been putting extra chemicals into the water to kill bacteria in the pipes however you are drinking that as well.

    • @DerbyKoi
      @DerbyKoi  3 месяца назад

      I dread to think what's in it that's why my drinking water goes through a filter as well.

    Hope your knee is felling better and not giving you too much discomfort until you get the knee replacement. That water filter was disgusting. Hard to believe so much crap is in the water and it not only impacts the fish but what is it doing to you, Graham and Bizley? Looking forward to seeing your upcoming canopy build. I do reasonably well when working with lumber but must admit I'm a measure multiple times guy and still screw up the cuts. 🤣 Hopefully you'll do better than I do.🙏🏻😂😂
