This gallery pictures my pond build as it progressed.



Dimensions of the pond are 13.5ft x 6ft x 5ft with two viewing windows. The filters are block built (Richdon Style) with 14ft x 2ft x 3ft of settlement then a line of brushes through two 4" pipes to the Kaldness K1 chamber of 2.5ft x 1.5ft x 3ft then finally Jap matting in a chamber 4.5ft x 1.5ft x 3ft with two 2" returns using 2 x Aquamax 10,000's and a TMC 55w UV.



This is a total gallonage of 3000 gallons.



The separate skimmer filter is pumped by another Aquamax 10,000 going through Certikin Skimmer with a wide mouth extension and 4" conversion. Filter media is Jap Matting.



The bottom drain will use 80l of air via 2 x Airtech pumps and the bio Chamber will also have a Airtech 80 powering the 200L of fluidized K1. The pond also has 2 x Richdon Aquafusers built into the base being powered by another 2 x Airtech 40's. Giving 240lpm of air in total.



All filters and the pond are fibreglassed. Heating is via gas off the House Combi Boiler and a Elecro 4KW heater as back-up in case of boiler failure.
