Eric,

Can't wait to see the pictures. BTW, you should be able to post the picture on the web yourself. The forum under the "Members' Pond" actually have the added feature to include attachment.

Cheers,
Patrick

Hi! Mr. Hwong,

Yes, 90% are from my collection. Most of them are donated off by me to the Home. Cool

Some I put out-door to `sun' the koi, coz I'm keeping koi in-door. Need to rotate now & then... Crazy

to get back the lustre, especially for the Hikarimono group.

Hee..hee - when old folks make me Crazy

- go see my koi lah, to be Smile

Job de-stress station! Laugh

Hi,

I can only see pond 1 and pond 2 so I don't get to see the koi.

Is it just me or is anyone else having the problem ?.

smw,

the koi pictures are together with pond2. It takes sometime to loadup.

eric,

neat looking pond and really nice kois. I recalled reading sometime back in cyberfin, either u or yr fren was doing up some fibreglassing and was going to put up some tips and follow-up pictures. Was this done and if so can u direct us to the link. Appreciate it much and i think tips on fibreglassing is this region is much sought after.

Thks.

Re: [taikor] My working place 15 tons pond [In reply to]	Can't Post

Hi! Mr. Taikor,

Is taikor means `Big Brother' in chinese?

Ok, big bro. - yes. I did wrote an article on how one work with fibreglass & most important, where one can get to buy the material in small quantity in S'pore. Smile

It was published in our club bi-monthly Koi News, maybe half year ago. Tongue

Ok lah! I go & dig out the issue & post - not here, but under Constr. of ponds & filter system.... Cool

It was Part 3 of the series on Pond Construction write-up. So look out for it.

Nice to hear you all like the koi. Me too. Smile

Rdgs,
Eric

Hi Eric

Nice looking pond and incidentally the pond shape of a 'figure 8' is exactly like mine! Cool

Mine is about 10' x 6' x 5', probably smaller than the one in the picture.

You've got some good looking kois in there and I'm sure the old folks also enjoy the kois as much as you do. Very good of you to donate the kois to your working place and make a positive contribution to society!

Hi Eric, the koi are healthy because they are lucky to have you as their owner or caretaker. It's not often that one stumble on any well maintained public koi pond in this part of the world.... Smile

Re: [HWONG] My working place 15 tons pond [In reply to]	Can't Post

Hi! Hwong,

Just mentioning his name makes all Laugh

The sitcom is called PCK Pte Ltd. (Phua Chu Kang)
Actor name is Gurmit Singh (but modern Singh without any turban!!) Tongue

Don't prey prey means = Don't play play = further means, don't try to be funny,etc..etc.

Hey! Out of topic. Talking TV here. Better stop or Mr. Khoo's going to kick us out! Crazy

Laughing with you too....

Eric
