what i would like to know is when people do a water change with a gravity feed sieve how can you run the systen untill its filled up again. im abit confused with this. or am i missing some thing here lol.

you might be better putting in an over flow , and doing a constant change , but it realy depends on the route you want to go , and what you want from your koi ???

i will have to look into a auto top up system. and then i dont have to do water changes i hope.

yep , as when you pull the drains or /and sieves for flushing it will top up , or you could just run , say 5-10% water change per day , through a pre filter , and get some serious growth going on the koi for next year

freddy , its all about what you want from your koi , at the level your at, on the koi ladder

its very personal thing for each individual koi keeper , and everyone will answer different , within reason .

for me , i buy very high quality koi , that still have potential ,in both growth , and them being better koi in 5-8 yrs , so what i want is my koi to be the best they can under my koi keeping skills , so thats what i want from my koi
