Good to know that you are back into the hobby! So you have already permanently settled down in a house?

Welcome back!
Yes that club is still running
Drum filters seem to be all the rage these days, you can get then that drop into a nexus. These are Draco drums. Very good by all accounts for the mechanical filtration.

That's it for this year!
plans totally changed owing to space time and budget
but I now have a pond again and I'm happy with the outcome
not as big as I had planned but fits the small garden nicely
still cost a small fortune!
1600 gals
4 inch bottom drain to eazypod 16000 eco pump to 30w uv to midwater return and roto shower
7 small koi doing well
really need some polycarbonate covers 8.2 today
anyone local got any laying around?
pergola next year and maybe heaterIMG_0867.jpgIMG_0868.jpgIMG_0869.jpgIMG_0870.jpg

Thanks Feline
owing to space limitations it works well
there are a few tighter bends than I would have liked but everything is working well
pond gin clear and easy maintenance
