Thank's for your post, yes, i use tap safe when doing any water changes, have noticed a few more of the gold fish trying to jump out of the water so i'm guessing it's gotta be the water quality ????

Just been to the koi stockist & they had a new filter in by evoloution aqua ( black box style ), wanted the easypod but cant accomodate this or really afford it, would the above filter be better than an oase biopress pressurised filter which i'm currently using or i'm a just swapping like for like - any advice would be really appreciated, thank's guys.

I wouldn't know what a bakki shower is, very tight for space to be honest, currently got the filter buried in soil in a border & the new one would be going above that literally a few feet from the pond - the trouble with the easypod was having lengths of pipe from one end of the garden on view with bends etc then having to house the pod safely, the guy just said it's a decent filter & pump set up for £ 325, he's an independant breeder with nothing to gain really ?
Just a bit of an investment in these hard times, that's all,
thank's.
