    Well we have had a great day down rhe south again and pond back up to almost 21.
    Sending you some sun 😁
    Its crazy what remains in the pipes considering how much you are pulling from them.
    Nice progress on the filter house despite the weather up where you are.

    • @dkoi-tv
      @dkoi-tv  Год назад +1

      Yes Lau proper crazy and I run a high flow as well.. my pond is at 22 but I am paying for that unfortunately. Solar panels need the sun!!!!

    Looking good fella, yes mate when I installed my drum I wasn’t even advised on a purge line for my bottom drain and had all sorts of issues . Got a team of guys in and managed to install one and I do it religiously every weekend now, made a massive difference . Personally I think if you concentrate on the water quality the fish look after themselves. I know you probably already know all this but I just wish I had people like yourself on you tube before I built mine I wouldn’t have had half the problems. Good work fella looking forward to each instalment 🎏🎏

    That filter house is massive. Not jealous at all 🙄 can't believe you has that much crud in your lines. I might have to try that just incase

    • @dkoi-tv

      Yeah no amount of purging would clear that so I would say this is bi annual job now for sure...

    how many bends have you got in the pipe from your bottom drain pal was it easy to get the pressure pipe down lol

    • @dkoi-tv
      @dkoi-tv  Год назад +1

      Yeah I have a 90 into drum then straight down to level with another 90 to the drain. Was easy enough to run it all the way to the drain..
