Simply Koi and More Koi

at lower temps the fish will rest on the bottom and not be very active at all. as the day warms up (if it does) the fish will swim around a little but probably not feed. personally i would not turn the filter off, it wont chill an unheated pond to any great degree. it will just create a volume of st...

look here for connectors http://www.koicarp.net/pvc_plumbing/connectors.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; there are many other sites you just have to know what to search for... heres a threaded type but its a lot more £'s https://www.pisces-aqua.co.uk/acatalog/copy_of_cop...

thorny, could you not lay them layed flat but vertical to get a tight curve?

i think the bloke in the waders is saying.
"wern't you going to put your washing in there?"
or
"i know there the one for culling but if they want to buy them, sell them"

now youve put up pictures of cars i'm going to ask. how come you didn't make a detour to see some of the world rally championship?

so bob, have i missed the post where you put up the pictures of the koi you purchased.
can we start a new thread with what the Muppet's bought?
when do the new koi get into the country? who's doing the quarantining

eds, thisll throw a spanner in your theory.
if you place a pump with a max head of 6ft in a pond 6ft deep, and it has a rigid pipe of 6ft 2 inches attached. your theory says it would pump as if the head was just 2 inches?????
me says youd get no water out of the pipe at all....

right glad you put a diagram. now i can make my point. when you mount a pump at the bottom of a pond is the "head" measured from the pump to the filter, or is it measured from the point where the pipework breaks the surface to the filter. if its the latter then what happens as you drain th...

glad your all home safe. make sure you get the sleep your bodies need and some good wholesome grub in your bellies.

and lets all say thanks for digital photography.... how much would it cost to develop 1500 photos..
