Very nice Andy, looking forward to part two and the air pipe going in. (You will have the nicest smelling koi on RUclips with your deodorant add on 🤣) - enjoy the show today Mate👍
Thanks paul, I'm hoping the filter works now after using up all my deodorant on them 😂. The show was fantastic, the video should be available tonight. Stay 👍
Cheers mate, it was a brilliant day,, met so many subscribers and RUclipsrs and Bizley was pampered all day, even got half of someone's burger, wished you could have been there, vid will be up tonight 🙁👍
Excellent job so far andy, them diy discs are great and made for free, even better 😊. Looking forward to saying hi at the show mate, might have something for Bizley 👍
Looking really good. Can't wait to see things up and running. Great job on the plumbing as well. If you are ever looking for a new career you're off to a good start. Cheers.
Hi Richard thanks for watching mate, i ordered from here... clearplastictube.co.uk/index.php?route=product%2Fproduct&path=35_57&product_id=179 If you check out part 2 there's a list of parts in the description that might help 😊
I've built one if these tower filters, there all very similar, the difference here is the bypass something I wished I'd put in, I've had issues when using clay the filter removes it before it's done its job, after watching this I'm making some alterations to mine. Looking forward to the complete build. Thanks mate
Cheers Steve, interesting that you had clay issues, that's the main reason for me adding the bypass, I'm looking forward to seeing how it works if the rain stops long enough for me to finish it 🤨. Thanks for watching 👍
@@DerbyKoi you wont be disappointed, apart from the clay problems which your design should eliminate, it's been brilliant at removing fines from the pond 👍
Looks good mate I like the by pass good idea. have a good day 2mora do you not think some of the waste water will go back down the inlet pipe or did i miss a slide valve 👍👍👍
Nice one and be looking forward to seeing it up & running 👌🤙👍 Be interesting to know over all costs of just the upflow & where you got acrylic pipe from, if you don’t mind telling ? As I love make one like that 🤔🤔
Hi mate, I don't have a specific supplier, I generally search for the cheapest. I've been using Facebook market place for quite a few things and ebay also. Check out the youtuber @skeggy pond he runs a shop and will try and get you the best prices. 👌
I'm going to assume your pump fed, so yes it should work, but it may slow your flow, and it's really designed as a fines filter so ideally filtered first to remove the larger particles 👍
@@DerbyKoi Hi Andy. Yes so it would be the first thing my water hit from the pump. Then it would go through the UV then into the multi bay through brushes, Japanese mat, grog, 2x help 13 moving beds and then out into pond.
@@kris308100 ok, as I say it should work but being the first filter it might restrict flow and will get dirty really fast, restricting the flow even further. as I say it's meant to go after main filtration and just collect the fines.
@@DerbyKoi lol sorry I didn't see the description 😂😂😂 you knows what I'm like "Eddie the Eagle eye's", I know what happened you got pipe excitement didn't you 😂😂😂
Lovely work Andy, but give Bizley some play time look at his beautiful face 😊
Thanks Ethel, I'm playing football with right now 😊

Lol, you caught the error, I wrote in the description about it, all sorted now, but top Mark's for noticing, waiting to see how many see it 😬
@@DerbyKoi 🤣👍👍👍
Hi Andy may I ask how much all this will have cost you please as considering building one myself
Hi mate when its all completed i will put a list in the description on the part 2 video hopefully next week. Stay safe👍
Nice one and be looking forward to seeing it up & running 👌🤙👍

As I love make one like that 🤔🤔
Cheers mate, I hope it all works when its turned on, I'll try and list parts used and links in the description on the next video part 2 🤞
@@DerbyKoi spot on 👌. Enjoy the weekend at show 🤙👍
Hi andy noob question where is the best supplier for all fittings you have found ? Many thanks
Hi mate, I don't have a specific supplier, I generally search for the cheapest. I've been using Facebook market place for quite a few things and ebay also.
Check out the youtuber @skeggy pond he runs a shop and will try and get you the best prices. 👌
Great video Andy. Could I outlet this directly into my UV before it goes into my main filter system?. I have a 5 bay Multi-bay? .
I'm going to assume your pump fed, so yes it should work, but it may slow your flow, and it's really designed as a fines filter so ideally filtered first to remove the larger particles 👍
Kris, I can see you replied but RUclips have deleted it 🤬. Your welcome to try again or message me on Facebook. Sorry mate

@@DerbyKoi ok mate. Thank you once again for your help. My media has been in the PP now for 4 days, like you advised. Going to try it tomorrow.
I got to say I love the bypass for the upflow, sorry mate but that’s gonna have to be a copyright 😏🤣
Thanks mate, just this once I'm gonna give you a free pass, however Bizley said 1 bonio and a head pat, hes the gaffa 😬
Hi Andy, can you tell me what size clear tube your using and where I can get some please
Hi mate the tube is 150mm x 3mm x 1000mm. Link below 👍

Oh and you're missing a slide valve mate 😉😉😉
Trust you to spot it lol i did put in the description that i missed one but it has been changed i just didn't record it.
@@DerbyKoi lol sorry I didn't see the description 😂😂😂 you knows what I'm like "Eddie the Eagle eye's", I know what happened you got pipe excitement didn't you 😂😂😂
It was all the different pipe lengths that got me confused, my partner said size doesn't matter, but he's been spoiled 😊
Would have been cheaper to just buy the tempest filter!
I doubt that, and I enjoy building things and trying to improve them, thanks for your comments though 👍
