    Ideal time to move the fish would be as the temps rise and we expect no more heavy frosts . . . so that would be ???

    but as you have started that will save time once the move/build can go ahead, saves marking time
    Cheers for that Wain.

    You weren't very far from me there Jack.

    OK sounds like a plan. You normally want to over spec your filters etc to allow for fish growth or extra fish for starters. You need your actual pond volume before you can even start to figure out minimum filter requirements.

    Good luck with the block work.

    Last couple of days spent digging up around the patio to run new mains water and power supply to proposed filter area. Slabs and concrete removed to allow for drain connection to be made to existing chamber and run back to filter area.

    Spent the last two weeks researching drum filtration for my build. Think I’m going to go with an Profi Drum Combi 30. One bottom drain and one skimmer.13,200 litres.

    Can't answer the drum question Jack or how many BDs you'll need for that size pond but a skimmer is a great idea and one you won't regret.

    I fitted a skimmer last year and wished I'd done it years ago as the amount of muck it removed with it just running skimmer to pump and back to the pond while I was working out the best place for the return to goes was amazing.

    Something is making me think the maximum a single BD will cover is about a 14ft diameter but I could be wrong?

    Fish in their temporary home, old home dismantled and new pond area secured from the dogs. Will have to be dug out by hand unfortunately due to lack of access for mini digger. Won’t be rushing!
