hiya freddy
well so far so good, the water is gin clear, i had not back washed the bead filter untill the weekend as was told to leave it awhile, but to be honest the water was not spot on at all, but soon as i used the air blower and back washed it, with in 24hrs it is really really clear and looks good. i can even see fish poo on the bottom easy at 4 foot deep. the other thing i have noticed is the amount of fish waste the estro sieve takes out of the water. i would say that is one of the best things any one could put on a pond for sure. we have had nearly every fish come up and hand feed right down to 4" fish. i had to put a gate vavle in at the weekend between the bead filter and the pump because if you dont the air blower blows back though the pump and back into the sieve so you must have a gate valve and shut it off also you have to shut the return off to the pond. we are off to pick up 3 more cracking fish on weds that i won on ebay last night for an awesome good price. any questions just ask away. mark
