STOP WASTING MONEY!
Are you concerned about the ph of your pond ? Do you add buffers to your water (kh,gh,ph) ? ph swings are dangerous to the health of your koi and can be caused by excessive rainwater or change in supply from the water board (kh,gh). A sudden drop in ph can kill the koi and also result in a filter crash.To solve this problem many koi keepers spend hundreds of pounds a year in buffers and test kits to keep their water stable.
We now stock ph granules which dissolve over a long time period to keep the ph stable around 7. The doseage rate is 1 kg to 1000 gallons with the granules placed in water movement (filter, waterfall etc.) inside a mesh bag. Typically the granules need to be topped up from time to time which is roughly a third of the initial amount added per year. There is no need to worry about your exact pond volume as it is impossible to overdose with the product.
We
have
been very busy this year building ponds worldwide and giving valuable
guidance to customers that are building
professional koi ponds some in excess of 50,000 gallons. Once they have
beenfully completed the photos will be available for viewing but in the
meantime if you are deciding on building yourself a 'professional' koi
pond then don't hesitate to contact us and we will help you through the
build process and supply you with the correct equipment for your
requirements. We are now able to design, plan and build your pond from
start to finish.
Check out the new section 'Customer Ponds'.
We are now the Uk's main supplier of fabricated bottom drains and skimmers designed by ourselves and used in all our professional koi pond builds. The drains and skimmers can be adapted to suit pond size for instance larger airdome and plate or bigger outlet on the skimmer to provide additional filtration. The bottom drain incorporatesa fully airated 1" line so does away with the need for running hoses to the drain. Please ring for your requirements as bottom drain placement is crucial to an efficient pond.
At
present with have koi from Yagenji, Shintaro and Hoshikin along with
other breeders from the Niigata area of Japan. We have 3 facilities to
view koi at of which 2 need appointments and the third is located in
the new premises which is open for public viewing 6 days a week from
9am till 5pm Monday to Saturday.
We are a young dynamic company supplying professional goods and services for the serious koi keeper.
