In the latter stages of a new pond - 1500 gal's - in the UK. Anyone had
any
experience with stocking a couple of Barbel?

Do you really mean Barbels, or koi? Barbels are game fish, ugly, from the
pictures I saw by Googling. Their profile looks very much like koi though.

Pond will be well filtered & aired - I'm just concerned about the lack of
"running" water for the fish

Define "running" water. If it's is being filtered, there must be flow. How
many gph is flowing thru the filter? ~ jan
