Had a rep come around yesterday and he said that bottom drains are inefficient and I'd be better off with a pump fed system, this contradicts most of what I have read. Also in regard to filter systems, it appears that everyone has their favourites, some say Cloverleaf others say Nexus and this...

Thanks Jason, have had a quick look at those links and I think Ill be reading for about a month :lol: Because I originally only had 4 * 4" Koi and comets in a connecting garden pond I was only using a standard 18000L filter so now I am having to get all the proper filters etc, I think these 7...

I'll try both ideas, netting to try and stop them storing the acorns, hopefully this will deter them in the spring when they come looking for the acorns from digging the lawn up. during the winter & spring I have several beed feeders out and I also put peanuts out for the squirrels to stop them...

John, I drilled down the trunk and poured through funnel, I replanted soil after; can't say exactly how long after it was a few years ago and didn't experience any problems. Where I live we have a wasteland alley behind our gardens which the council have said if we keep tidy (cheek as they...

ask your local hire shop if they know any "hard Landscapers" what area is the job in?
