Sorry it took so long to get back. It's been a rough week for him. He has a couple filters a couple waterfalls and the place is gorgeous now. Sadly he ignored me and didn't cycle the pond first and lost 15/17 koi.

That's so sad I too am curious about the dimensions. Is that black cylinder the filter?

One of them. He has three total and just bought another one lol. It's 6ft by 8ft roughly. 2-3 feet deep. He bought a master test kit which is nice but with all the fish out his water tested no amonia so he thinks it's good to go and again will not cycle.

Any chance you can throw some seasoned media in there?

I love aquaponic growbeds as filtration and will greatly improve water quality.

He has to have 30 or so plants in there now. Hopefully that will help.
