      Thanks ade the pond itself is actually finished now but the fish are being treated for parasites before they get transferred as its much cheaper to treat a 2k vat than a 11.5k pond 🤣 once that's done there going in 😍

    Great Jamie, that’s given me a bit of confidence to plan mine. It’s going to be a retrofit so I will have to drain down pond , move fish and cut sleepers, on the positive side my box weld liner is well shaped and stretched by now. I’ll keep in touch and give you a shout if I want to clarify anything. Won’t be for a couple of months yet👍Great vid

  • @davidgladen4497
    @davidgladen4497 2 года назад +1

    Great update Jamie...I ended up sealing the liner straight to window and worked well....the first attempt (glass over the liner) leaked badly! Costly mistake as had to get a new liner!

    • @keepingitkoi
      @keepingitkoi  2 года назад +1

      To be honest thats why i did it this way as the liner wasnt a perfect fit i new that if i tried to squeeze the window up to the liner i was bound to get a wrinkle or crease and that would have caused major issues like you as a new liner jobby so altho the initial plan was to do it the other way i feel i made the right choice especially as its been holding water for about 3 weeks now with no issues what so ever 👍🏻👍🏻

    Well done m8 I've got those wipes been using them for a while now and another tip for u if ur hands are really sticky and horrible and u run out of wipes WD40 just spray it all over ur hands and wipe off its quick and easy then was ur hands with ya favourite soap haha I use it a lot. Looking forward to next video and the little filter i brought like urs after u recommended it still working a treat m8...

    • @keepingitkoi
      @keepingitkoi  2 года назад +1

      Cheers bud although I used to use wd40 till I found these wipes 🤣 anti bac hand wipes that smell of lemon is much nicer and them wipes get anything off my hands and tools that I use day to day and I can't spay my power tools with wd40 🤣 And I'm glad the filter is working for ya I've had the smaller one now for 7-8 years and other than a couple of new uv bulbs it's never let me down and so easy to maintain 👍
