Hello everyone, my name is Cam. Keeping koi fish as pets has always been a hobby in my family. I rejoice the special moment when I got the opportunity to keep these beautiful fish for the very first time! In this blog, I would like to share with you my experience starting out as a koi hobbyist as well as some of the best information resources and products I have found to be useful. Thank you!

Cheryl Ellison's DIY Sand/Gravel filter
Got my S/G filter finished and up and running. I built this for my indoor Koi Stock tank, which will eventually serve as my quarantine tank when the big pond gets finished. Right now it has my 3 Koi and one goldfish in there. My old filter was failing and leaking really bad, I had used it for over 10 years, it use to be on my old outdoor pond and it was really undersized for my fast growing Koi. I was able to use the bio media that was in it for a new shower water return as you will see in the video. So far, no leaks and the water is sparkling clear after only 2 days in operation. I will be building 2 more of these for my outdoor pond, so this was a good practice one. I make a video of how to clean it next weekend! Stay tuned!
