How can I attain clear water in my Koi pond?
I have a 130-gallon garden pond in my back yard. I currently have five Koi living in it that are all approximately 4-inches long. I have a submersible 325-GPH pump with a pre-filter attached. I also have a diverter connected to my pump and from that I have a small fountain and a small waterfall running. Unfortunately, my water continues to get more and more green and I’m beginning to lose sight of my fish. What would be the best technique to solve this problem without harming my fish and without spending too much money?
I also had that problem…not seeing my expensive fish was frustrating. I went to home depot and bought a UV filter that attaches to my pump and it keeps the water clear as a bell. It cost $60.00 and worth every penny cause nothing else works. I had pre-filters and post filters, and everything I could think of, including pulling the filters out everyday and cleaning them, but of course it didn’t get the algae out. They also have an expensive model UV filter that provides it’s own pump, but the cheapr one works great. It simply diverts the water to the filter, then the hose brings the water back to the pond. Oh, and there is nothing to clean out except the regular pond pump that you have to clean out anyway. I only do this once a week or so, now tha the water is clear.
