thanks adam, for taking the time to reply to my query,i do agree with your advice, however, you must understand, i am posting from thailand, where such luxuries as "kaldnes k1" dont exist,and only a limited few people know what a koi carp is. people who keep fish here,do so for eating,anyone keeping fish as pets is looked upon as either filthy rich,or,"in cahoots with the devil".
the pond which i have just constructed,is currently awaiting filter materials,before being filled with water, and i estimate should top out at 35 ton. the filter is a 5 bay, each bay being one metre square, the whole, being constructed of concrete,and sealed with "banana tree cellulose".
