This Pond belongs to Paul, who is the co owner of Quality Nishikigoi.
We needed to do a little maintenance on the pond this morning and check one of the Koi.
This is one of the few ponds we have installed a Drum filtration system on, mainly due to the pond being 27 years old and we could not install a Nexus system without having to break a lot of concrete where the filters are.
Paul buys the majority of his Koi when he comes to Japan in October and has a great collection. Along with the Koi he has some superb Bonsai tree's which is one of his passions.
Again, we did a scrape but we could not find anything to show you. Always the case, when you want to find something you cannot, but if were not looking we probably would! We have ordered a screen for the scope so we should be able to show something soon!

I could sit there all day staring and enjoying the beauty of the courtyard with a simple but elegant Japanese style, especially the very high quality kois supported by a traditional pond design, without a glass mirror which actually displays the koi in its weakest side, namely from the side, good job mate , lovely pond lovely kois lovely garden... ❤️❤️
For me this is the best koi/pond channel on the internet always top quality fish and great ponds, hope you're all well.
🙏🏻🙏🏻
Steve white Leicester. What a lovely set up. And stunning fish.
I've never seen such a beautiful garden, I now know where I'll be taking inspiration from
Amazing fish and love the Japanese style in the design
Paul a credit to you attention to detail is spot on. Stunning koi, superb pond. Thanks Tim for the video, we know it takes time and dedication mate. 👍
Man isn't that like a home paradise don't know which was nicer the pond , fish or the lovely bonsai nice vid all the same mate keep up the greatness
Wish i never watched this video :-) talk about pond envy and Koi envy one word STUNNING!!!!
If there was such a thing as a TV series on koi and the keepers it should be yours mate. Another good viewing for 20 odd minutes. Nice garden Paul. Mine will be finished soon.
I guess it is kind of randomly asking but do anyone know of a good website to watch newly released movies online ?
@Garrett Mateo I use FlixZone. You can find it by googling :)
@Konnor Ari Yea, I've been watching on flixzone for years myself :)
@Konnor Ari Thank you, I went there and it seems to work :) I appreciate it!!
@Garrett Mateo Happy to help xD
Wow,I miss our Koi pond back in Oulton Broad,now I’m stuck with a bloody bland and bare yard in this bloody forsaken Hot Texas heat.I wish I had you to help me do a pond again over here,it would definitely help me with my sad issues from combat and the military.
Good tip on the white vinegar for the drum screen👍& interesting pond & bonsai😉
That 1st showa has my eyes since you came in. Beautiful garden of bonsai. Thanks for showing us.
Wow that black bottom on the pond absolutely makes the koi Pop, doesn't it? Immediately notice the quality and beautiful flawless body shape of the koi!!!!
Lovely garden and pond and lovely looking koi. Keep the videos coming alot of informative content in them 👍 stay safe
Thats probly the best collection of fish iv ever seen i need to go to japan
best bonsai and koi collection 🤯🤯🤯 ,thanks Tim 👍👍👍 and also Paul for sharing keep up the good work
Can't make my mind up of what I like the most? Fair play Paul it's such a perfect sanctuary mate, well done. Thanks for filming 👌🙏⛩️🈂️KC
Everything you spot around are all beautiful: the collections of bonsai plants were gorgeous as much as them KOI 😍 cheers for sharing buddy 😎
beautiful pond....stunning koi...and very nice collection of bonsai top class!!!
Absolutely stunning fish there and the garden nice and clean. Liking the bonsai trees. Keep the video coming mate 👍
Loved the fish. Mine are mongrels compared to them. I purchased my first Bonsai last year - an evergreen Chinese elm. It lost its leaves - could’nt make it up. They have started to slowly grow back in the recent warm weather. It’s good to see other people’s gardens which can be inspiring.
Great garden Paul the weeds are fantastic. I am more into Acers than Bonsai but very nice
Fantastic pond, koi and garden. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful koi lovely garden really enjoyed video
Thanks Dave 👍
Beautiful pond ,koi stunning , bonsai to die for , absolutely stunning overall ,I wish mine looked that good .
Thank you for the demonstration! It is the first time I have seen a scrape taken ,(I did one earlier today on one of my fish but I didn't lift them out of the water so I probably won't have anything that I can see on the slide. I need to buy one of those baskets
Absolutely stunning I’m very jealous
Amazing pond and garden Paul must be very proud of all those lovely fish
Lol @ plants or weeds, cheers! Brian from Denmark
Stunning pond and great garden Paul. This garden is definitely a reflection of its owner and a truly inspiring space. Great video Tim.
Some awesome bonsai, lovely fish and a decent pond setup.
Massively underrated channel imo. Great vid as always mate
What beautiful fish and great bonsai. Love his yamabuki ogon
Yes excellent this is like a great tv show for koi, unlike so called pond you tuber claims "ponds dune right!" These are real koi ponds dune right!
Thanks again I enjoy these!
Beautiful Koi, thanks for sharing! 💦🐟
Great Video Tim, amazing pond and Koi made me laugh your love for his Bonsia :) still no hair cut then! thanks for sharing takecare Gents
Think it’s going to have to be a head shave at this rate
Fantastic koi and Bonsai Paul excellent video Tim
Fantastic fish Paul. The plants aren’t bad either !
Wow the bonsais are stunning. That rock is shaped like the state of New Hampshire in the US. LOL. beautiful garden and pond 👍
Tim if you did a question and answer, my question would be what would give you more satisfaction a pond full of koi brought within that size or a pond like that with fish grown to that size ? My answer would be in the middle i doubt you could buy koi that small 6 inch say and grow them to be that stunning so id grow some buy some 😀
So amazing fish and garden
Great pond and garden Paul beautiful fish stunning
Awesome bonsai and kois collection. I envy yo mate 😁
Wow amazing fish and weeds lol 🤣🤣🤣
Very nice set up Paul, love the Bonsai and acers as well.
Hiya Tim new subscriber from Warrington great vlog Paul's pond looks fantastic currently building a bigger pond will definitely be giving your place a visit for some koi 👍

Magnificent pond, koi collection and bonsai. I particularly love your Dainichi and Ueno showas as well as the shimpaku junipers!

I'm currently building a 4000L indoor pond from wood so I can finally keep koi!
cheers for the inspiration Tim 👌
Making Japan a home from home. Lovely garden and absolutely stunning fish. My favourite one was the first Showa, love seeing black on a koi 👍🏻 keep the vids coming guys...
Another very enjoyable video, better than Netflix 👍
🙏🏻
Beautiful fish and garden.
These fish are amazing, I have lost koi when they have jumped out of the pond, have you ever had this problem, I now leave a fine netting on top, it does hinder the view of the fish a touch.
If you ever want someone to edit a thumbnail for you or anything like that I don't mind. Might help boost your channel :) Love the videos.
another great video m8 I do a bit of gardening hate weeds but would have those of pauls haha
that is so beautiful fish guy !!
Looking good keep up the good work
Stunning Paul, Love the bonsai.
Nice fishes Paul. You need a goshiki in there....
Great as always
Very nice indeed, credit to ya 👍
Bloody hell welcome to Japan very surprise about the bonsai being out all year never fort they would survive the uk dreadfulness beautiful garden ! Would love see it at night with all the lights on photo maybe? .. what's sercuity like when having ponds like this they money value in koi in that pond has got be quite abit not only that hes had them for 20 odd years ? Do you get koi thefts or not? .. cheers for paul allowing the video
I'm only just becoming interested in fish but know a little about bonsai and I bet theres nearly as much money in the bonsai if not more
Very lovely weeds! Lul! Koi? Wow congrats mate!
Wow Paul, that is one awesome collection you have there. Something to be very proud of 👍🏻
A few questions
- How deep is the pond?
- what temp do you keep them at during winter?
Just over 5 feet deep. He never lets the pond drop below 12C and he covers in winter
Stunning garden and pond, any tips for growing the acers? The size Paul's are is what I'm aiming for in the future 👍
He’s had them years and years!
There are many varieties of acer some will quickly develop into large trees, others will remain small. Have a look at a specialist nursery site for some inspiration - I'd recommend Bluebells arboretum & nursery. They don't have to be expensive either, I picked up an acer palmatum from Wilcos for a couple of quid that grew like a rocket !
it skims by gravity it goes through the clarity . Are you the pond rapper?
Hi mate my names oscar I’m 16 and I have a real passion for koi and fish tanks and ponds and I wondered if there were any jobs going as I’d love to work with these beautiful fish and learn more
Great pond ! What is the pond’s sealing choice ? Thanks !!!
Favorite pond folder.
amazing fish & trees quality
🙏🏻
Nice 😊
Nice
😍😍😍😍
Wow! That first Showa is a Beauty! What's the uv, looks Huge? Thanks for sharing Guy's
Is the drum cleaning cycle the only water exchange happening? Any idea on amount and frequency of water changes on this pond? Been researching koi, basically every source would say this pond is overstocked. In my aquariums I run live plants and do weekly 50% water changes to compensate for overstocking.
Don’t forget the drum cleans multiple times per hour so the pond is getting lots of water changes. Also on this particular pond there is a constant trickle. The bio chamber has a lot of K1 so sticking isn’t an issue.
Wow that pond is old older then me
Great video as always. Any theories on the fish not being happy? I see a few koi keepers up and down the country seeing unusual behaviour from their koi that doesn’t appear to be parasite related, I am wondering if the water boards have been adding chemicals due to the current pandemic which is irritating the fish. Any thoughts or theories at all?
Jamie Saunders when ponds heated, or not heated some Koi just don’t like the Spring changes, also big females go through many complicated issues regarding the eggs and that cycle.
Very nice 👍
Thank you 👍
Very nice garden and pond Paul. I like the pagoda over the pond - where did you get / how did you make? those curved roof beams?
A joinery company made it to Paul’s design
@@TimWaddington thanks for the info - they did a nice job.
why is the water level so low?
Great content as usual. Only one negative - no artsy, fartsy music 🤣
Haha I was under pressure to get it out!
how much does those trees cost ?
Desperately need advice and direction but I live in Wales any advise and help much appreciated
Laurie Martin email us please mate and we will try and help. The info is in the about section
Just a quick question is there blue dye in the water?
No, nothing 👍
Hi ya new subscriber to your channel, I’m returning to koi keeping after a few years of not keeping koi , that’s a beautiful garden and koi however I’m struggling to see the point of drums and nexus filters !! Because on many videos I see that there is use for manual hands dirty work and even jet washers used !! I thought the whole reason behind these filters was to avoid dirty work any advice would be grateful as I’m currently rebuilding great channel though regards Matt .
There are no totally maintenance filters I’m afraid. Some service is always needed. Automation takes a lot away but still have to do some work.
Quality Nishikigoi thanks for the reply I understand that when you have koi and water your gonna have always spend time on maintaining your system. However my concern is I’m seeing videos where people are using jet washers on them if that’s the case I’d rather use traditional filters that I’m familiar with and save money if that makes sense. Although I do like the nexus range
I just wash my Nexus about once a year just to get stubborn algae off the sides. Not all of them, just the ones with no lids on at the shop to show people how they work. The ones with a lid on I do every 2 years. Some never do.
Quality Nishikigoi hi ya thanks again I’m definitely considering one could you tell me what the maintenance valve is for obviously maintenance but I’m what way is it used ?
Maintenance valve? There is a valve that sends the dirty water to waste after you clean the nexus.
How can I not have algie I need help on my set up
so your catching them just to look at them yet that's what they're bred for? ie seeing in the pond without catching them.
We took a scrape to check for parasites too
@@TimWaddington I understand that but what about the others?
leigh shelton just having a look?
@@TimWaddington stressing them out for a look
What about when people take them to Koi Shows? Etc?
Is ur fishes afraid of crows and eagles🍽️🕊️🕊️🐦🐠
No
Beautiful koi :)
How big do ogon get ?
michael a I’ve seen them over 1m
@@TimWaddington Must be such an impressive sight, thx :)
Hi,.. why you put another glas on thé microscoop glas, if the Fish has parasites you kill them to put the glass on top. When you dont do that you will see them better because they are moving. Thats what i learned
It’s a cover slip, without them you won’t see anything.
Quality Nishikigoi evrybody is do it like they know
Dont tell me what to do unless you ready?
tiny LOL
Maybe its just me but I think these sterile, overstocked, artificially airated fish holding tanks with all the machinery are not my cup of tea... If you really want a pond, do it the right way, with bog filtration, plants and sensible amount of fish. Create a bit of nature in your garden instead of a bare fish holding tank...
That’s all very good. Would you put them in there where they can easily damage? Would you put Koi up to £6000.00 each in there? Koi that are bred for a purpose of developing the bloodline and growing properly?
@@TimWaddington I understand these are display tanks - I just said I like the natural look much better - and I am sure the koi would like it also, and be just as safe as in these tanks. But then you may not be able to see them all the time. Or show them off. But again, none of my business, some ppl. have expensive hobbies, some collect expensive cars or paintings etc. I would never spend that amount of money on a single fish (or any ornamental item) just because it is colored nicely (no offense, just my opinion, coming from a poor eastern EU family, struggling to even get my own home at the age of 33...). When I build my own pond, it will be a place to relax, to enjoy nature - not a place to show off my expensive fish.
And there are many ponds like that. What we do is a tiny part of that hobby.
