- Rich at Ohio Fish Rescue has a massive koi pond which is great, but it needs better filtration. See how we added pond filtration to this pre-existing water feature.

It’s the foundation for any successful aquatic system.......
@@EdThePondProfessor Amen Ed!!

Absolutely!
A very worth while project. Nice one to all 👍 god bless
Thank you!
Thank you for teaching us as you go! Great editing btw!
Also Thank you for helping Ohio Fish Rescue! Cheers
Thanks for your support!
I hope the weekend home pond builders need to realize the importance of leaf litter in the bottom of a frozen pond gives off deadly gasses. They need to make sure there is an opening in the ice and a leaf net that’s high at one end and slopes downward keep leafs and other things like tiny sticks. ❤️
Agreed!
You make it look so easy! All the best to you for your generous and irreplaceable donations to OFR. 🥰
I’ve been designing and installing water features for 27 years and have done thousands around the world, it gets easier with experience......
Way more thought goes into these setups than I ever realized..
Not always hence peoples issues w their ponds! An ounce of prevention is worth a pond of cure!
Yes,
When setup properly in the beginning it will allow for many years of function without problems
Thanks guys, it's clear that you all are super passionate for what you do it shows in all your builds!!
Ed thank you for helping out OFR! Your videos are always I formative and I really appreciate that! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family!
Thanks
&
I love working with BigRich and Josh!
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family as well......
Such a great dude with Ohio Fish Rescue. Awesome that Aquascape can help him with a healthier system; he needs the room with some of the monsters he has :)
Two questions; are the aqua blocks just for surface area like the bio balls? How does the area not fill up with sediment over time?
Aquablocks diffuses and spreads out the water for even flow through the gravel that provides the surface area for bacteria to colonize.
The snorkel/centipede combo allows for an annual back flushing of the system
The Aquablox are used as a sediment trap, if maintained on a yearly basis there’s no concern of excess sediment buildup
Water goes into aqua block comes from skimmer, which already been filtered. It should be crystal clear and out of debris
Thanks for the reply. I really enjoy your guys videos, and what you do!!
Great people, great project and great cause... 👊🏼
Agreed!!!
Came from the RUclips channel Goonzquad because someone mentioned you on the comments 👌🏽 they are planning in building a pond.
Awesome!!!
Thanks for your support!!!
Such a great video and explanation of filtration systems!
Thank you!
Great lesson in filtration!
Thank you!
Great explanation Pond Professor!
Thanks for your support!
Not sure why the algorithm fed me this today but I love that OFR pond and hope there's a creative way to add the sturgeon and keep it fed during the winter.
I’m getting a Sturgeon delivery soon!
@@EdThePondProfessor, incredible. Thanks for sharing!
"I fed them last night so they are nice and full so you're not going to get nipped..." I love this team!
Hahaha......
Love it!
You're a genius!😊
Thanks for your support!!!
Awesome video, very informative!

Great video, full of great information!
Awesome!
Thanks!
The blue tarp on the house....cue the banjos.
Ed u cation at it's finest!
Nice!!!
Very nice
Sweet Been waiting to see this Ed!
Thanks for watching Shawn!
Great information!
Have you guys ever considered building a “jumbo” skimmer to handle more leaves and junk?
We create customized skimmers on a regular basis, we call them Intake Bays and they’re very effective!
@@EdThePondProfessor do you prefer intake bays to a vanishing edge system for skimming? If so would you mind sharing why the preference.
I always learn something!
Great!!!
Thanks for watching!
From Philippines very nice

Hi Professor 👋 the water jets you use in this project has the same function with the pond powerhead?
Correct,
They aid in pushing water to help with circulation.
Hey I recognize that mullet
Ed, check out the Goonzquad channel. 2.3 million subs, and they bought a property and are gonna put a pond on it. They also bought some brand new Koboda equipment--probably $100k-worth. Good kids, too. I told them they should collab with you if they want to do it right. Maybe you can contact them. I wanna see you in some vids there.
Thanks for the tip!!!
Ed, any reason why you didnt put the discharge water at 14:23 inside the liner instead of outside of the liner and punching a hole thru the liner? We still can hide the pipe inside the line using rock and gravel rite? Any reason to do it outside the liner?
It’s cleaner doing it this way. The stone stays flush with the liner and we aren’t intimidated by cutting holes in the liner when utilizing this technique
@@GregWittstockThePondGuy excellent, thanks greg. You guys rock 👍👍👍
The pump for the Jets is located inside of the skimmer which is outside of the liner, we have no other option other than going through the liner to make that happen,
Does that make sense?
@@EdThePondProfessor been thinking what if we go over the liner from outside to the inside and covered using stone and gravel, must be above maximum water line tho.
Should you keep your running water ,running in fish pond in winter will it freeze the pumps
It’s optional,
You can leave the pumps running or shut them off for the winter,
If you decide to shut them off the pumps should be removed from the skimmers and stored in a garage or inside the home,
A small bubbler or floating heater should be installed inside of the pond to keep a hole open in the ice to allow for gas transfer
Wow Josh got ripped
He did!!!
💯🔥💙👍
Goonzsquad needs your help! They're building a pond!
I’ve recently heard!
Thanks!
Ed Rules. OFR Rules!
Thanks for your support!!!
Is the fish waste drain in bottom? please explain me plz .
👍👍
Thanks!
Is it wise to connect a wetland filter to a pond bottom drain?
We don’t install bottom drains. Skimmers for surface debris and rocks and gravel for the base to harbor bacteria colonies to break down waste
I wouldn’t recommend it,
Wetlands require highly oxygenated water with minimal sediments for optimal function.
Bottom drains typically have lower D.O. with higher sediments......
@@EdThePondProfessor ok noted..thanks.
I thought the palm power head was a blow dryer
Hahaha.......
Yea. It's HARD to Fathom HOW much Filtration a Large amount of Koi Require. I only have a 5k gal pond and use 2 koi toilets with airators. 2 skimmers. A pressurized Bead Filter. A 400gal settlement tank. A 4 Tier Trickle Filter. A sieve Filter and a fluidized media Bed. And 60w UV sterilizer. All Run with 2 7k gal hr mag drive Pumps. And Chinese air pump. It is literally just enough to keep the water perfect. If I removed 1 thing. The water quality would deplete pretty quickly.
There's Nothing Easy or Cheap about Keeping Koi.
But it sure is FUN
Aquascape Wetlands!
It can be an intense hobby!
Very informative, great video!!
Thanks Jenny!
