Mr. Bamm Bamm,

I think if you ask Mr.Dunkell about your filter system, He may give you his option since he has very well and great koi pond in his house with surper filter system. I wish I can have his filter system. very very nice one.

Hello Bamm Bamm
I am very interested in the Gunite/Polyurea lining you have mentioned. Can you give me some more information and pictures if possible. I have just completed the plans for a 190.000 UK gallons koi pond and at present Fibreglass is the lining due to a 6ft x 4ft viewing window, I am always interested in possible alternatives? look forward to hearing from you kind regards.

Excellent thanks for that link, and the pictures look good too. I am very interested in the method of construction used in your ponds. I build ponds here in the Uk using slightly different methods. If you would like to see a few of the ponds I have built you can see them on my website under Pond Construction and then click on any of the 5 examples across the top or bottom.

Nice puddle you got going on nice thing about Polyurea is you get to fill it up right away. Dunkel does good work I have seen it a few times.. It must be that Kryptonic Orange shirt
