Hi guys could someone recommend the best way to aerate a small garden pond, and what equipment will be best on a budget? Pond volume roughly 2500l.
Thanks
Thanks

Aerate? why?, Any small pump which ripples the surface will increase the amount of oxygen. Especialy if you make a small waterfall-like structure
I'm looking to put some koi in there I don't want the same thing to happen again. The pond has never been over stocked, and I wont over stock it with koi,
I know growth is dependent on the size of the pond,
Sorry, but didn't you just say
Putting this politely, you seem to have no real understanding of ponds. The "thing" about Koi is that you can't really "just add them to an existing pond because they look nice" (Which is what you seem to want to do)
Koi take a great deal of looking after and can, and do grow very fast. Koi produce their own body weight of "waste" every day, for this reason you need a lot of filtration to cope with it. Did you also know that a well looked after koi can live for 30+ years
You do seem to want to take care of your fish, so I suggest you read up more about koi, and then join the BKKS (You can go and look at other peoples koi ponds for free, and learn a lot)
