Recently mjl asked about filters. How about a thread with each ponder
either describing their set up or pointing to their website?
Here's mine.

Based in the South East of England. We have a 800ish gallon pond with 5
koi varying in size from 9-17", hand dug and lined with PVC.
Water is moved from the deepest part of the pond by an Oase in-pond pump
to the bio filter. This is the square tank from an old Oase


How big is your pump?

It's probably this one;

"Aquamax 3500

Oase Aquamax 6000 Waterfall & Filter Pond Pump
Ideal for: For water features, waterfalls and filtration.
Max Flow: 3392 litres / 739 gallons
Flow @ 0.5m: 2428 litres / 529 gallons
Flow @ 1.0m: 1336 litres / 291gallons
Flow @ 1.5m: 60 litres / 13 gallons
Wattage: 53 watts
Auxiliary Outlet Size: 20mm (3/4'), 25mm (1'), 32mm (1 1/4'), 40mm (1 1/2')"

They are good pumps, very resistant to blockage and easy to clean.


I like this pump. Great low profile design, too.
