    I decided to instal 75kg of grog in one of my multibay chambers - it all needed washing and putting in sacks. I didn't put on gloves initially - big mistake - that stuff is really sharp!
    6000g in ground koi pond
    +3000g lily/Anoxic pond attached
    29 koi (40 to 65cm)
    Bottom drain, Mid water & Skimmer to Drum
    JBR boichamber->Blue eco 500 pump ->below surface return.
    Blue Eco 240 -> Large MB -> Waterfall -> Planted Anoxic pond (25 baskets)
