Bank Holiday weekend is upon us!

DIY upgrades on your pond?
Adding livestock?
Routine maintenance but need spares?
Setting up a little wildlife pond?

We've got it covered!

This budo goromo, from Marujyu caught my eye during feeding this morning. Looks so much better in front of you. Nice example of this type of koi. It won't be around for long. Treat yourself this bank holiday!

Here we have a budo goromo. Really nice burgundy colour. Very clean shiroji. Great little fish to watch develop.

Payday weekend?

Go on, treat yourself.....

We have this Momotaro Sanke instore now. Great looking fish. A mix of kasane and tsubo sumi. Really good shiroji too. Very clean, and good potential. I fancy it myself 😊

Comes with a breeders certificate.

This really should be taken in to account.

And, on the flip side, in the autumn and winter, consider where any trees and plants are, as falling leaves will change your water parameters over time

When building a new pond position is key to how successful you are. Direct sunlight plays a big role, warmer pond water threatens aquatic life by simultaneously decreasing dissolved oxygen levels while accelerating the metabolic rates of fish and bacteria. This causes a dangerous supply-and-demand crisis, often leading to fish stress, algal blooms, and compromised water quality.
