well, i have my pond built a month ago in trece martires cavite, but i stay much here in las pinas for work reasons, the filtering system is adapted to MicVince's design posted here in the forum, got it "doubled" though to accomodate my pond, double barrel filtration  , a trickle tower and falls for aeration.
Pond Capacity is 876 Gallons, tama ba kwenta ko?
Triangular in shape, 8 feet each side, and 4 feet deep.
No UV's, kept my water clear by adding fiber fill in the barrel system, works wonders.
Placed some aquatic plants on top of the barrels to reduce nitrates.
Pump Capacity is 4750Gallons per hour, which i think is more than enough
Also placed a high capacity bubbler
present inhabitants includes 2pcs 12-15" koi's from cartimar, to mature my pond
(Platinum Ogon and Hi Ogon, i think)
I'm looking for smaller koi's so i can watch them grow like (4-5"?). hehe wanting to have Japanese or with japanese parents.
I just thought of having a smaller stock, like 5pcs so that I could focus my attention on each of them.
My budget is like 700 each, i'm really in a tight pack, from the pond construction and all.
