Hi Gaz,

I followed a message between you and Sharon, “Can Flukes kill Koi in a week”. You offered to help her. Reason messaging I’m having a similar problem and looking for advice and support

Gazkoi - just read your reply regarding spindrifters. I have a EZ500i pond and it has a standard Aquasure 9x4 bottom drain. I’m keen to get a spindrifter. Which one is best and importantly which one is most compatible with my EZ500i? Im focusing on the holes which are already drilled in the bottom of my pond as I do not want to be drilling new holes! I have an evolution 70 air pump. Im assuming the spindrifters come without the flange being drilled?
