    Starting new pond

    It's 2.5m long and 1.5m wide, and about 1m at it's deepest point. To be honest although I'm interested in Koi, I'm not too worried about keeping them, this is just a nice garden pond for my whole family to enjoy :D With regards to filtration, I've seen a Green Genie 6000 for £42-95 from...

    Starting new pond

    Just another question. Where built in UV's are concerned, is it better to get a filter with a 16w one or is 8w OK? Might be a daft question, but is it only a case that you need a higher wattage one the more water passes over it, or is a higher wattage one better at it's job in general :?

    Journal My New Filter and Pond - Lots of pictures

    IMHO your best bet is to build the pond deigned for koi and then other fish will love it too. I look forward to the pics mate and will try and help best I can! The first thing I'd do is upgrade the filter pretty seriously if you want to improve things as those box filters tend to clog up a lot...

    Starting new pond

    Yea I knew about it being armoured and I will definately be fitting an RCD, just wondered if the cable itself was special really. I've ordered the pump and filter, and liner this weekend, and I also picked up some free railway sleepers, although not the original ones i was offered(these are...

    Starting new pond

    Just started getting all the bits and peices together, and I was wondering what sort of electric cable I will need to run from the house into my Blagdon powesafe box. Is there some special cable or is it just the standard 2 or three wire stuff used around the home?

    Should have said in the original post, but when the present owner bought them they were new sleepers, not been anywhere near a train :wink:

    Starting new pond

    Hi all I'll be starting my new garden pond very shortly, so will be on here asking loads of questions. I'll be using used railway sleepers to build the surround, probably only two high, just want it raised up a bit as we have a 4 year old son :D Any advise on building this type of pond will be...
