How to make a homemade bio filter for your pond that really works! No UV

[jrstow86]

Fish flip due to distress. Lava rock and feather rock is good in the short run. Shortly you should have a zoogleal film covering the rock, blinding it from any biological filtration. Carbon is good too...if your biological load short circuits your filter...

why is the fish flipping? thats not good. mine use to do that. I threw in some medication and did a water change. they stopped.

[chrisdinskates]

i use normal carbon and it does the work too

If you make your pond is a minimum of 3-4 feet deep and you provide a tunnel, cave or overhang for your fish to hide in when predators come, you won't need electric fencing.

Yourfish got parasites, cant you see?

[rocketdog150]

where did you get them rock from

[MrMfloor]

Did you build the pond on top of boulders?.............looks fricken cool.

Why would you put the activated charcoal first? It seems counter productive. The blue mats should be first. That takes out the larger waste leaving the smaller stuff for the charcoal.

NOTE: at the beginning of the video one fish is "FLASHING" (Quickly turning sideways and rubbing itself, and this causes the sunlight to reflect off the side of the fish), this is usually a sign that your fish has a problem... I suggest you capture that fish and take it to a koi fish professional to test for parasites or other problems. also, added salt (not table salt) again, ask a professional for the right amount. salt is cheap.. less than $20 for a sack of it and it cures so many problems.

@SpicyPeteNorman I was going to say the same thing until I saw your post. Definetly was flashing

[ScreeminMeeme]

@SpicyPeteNorman /Ditto that good advice. Everyone who keeps fish needs to have a ''hospital'' tank where the fish can be isolated and kept in salt water for a few days. Salt water helps a number of conditions..it's a cheap remedy. :)

plants dont need oxygen?

[dinosaurman1000]

i aggre with u about plants they suck up water and evvully they willl use the oxygen to live but the provide food and a home for fish

[CHINESEdemocracy101]

@dinosaurman1000 plants dont use oxygen!! thats respiration! which is what humans and fish do, while plants do do this at night it is only for a few hours but for the rest of the time the photosynthesize which is where they take in CO2 (produced from respiration) and give out oxygen. so therefore while plants can harbor things, they are a good thing to have in your pond because they complete the ecosystem. note. in nature there are tons of plants in fish ponds. YOU DONT KNOW BETTER THAN NATURE!
