How much you charge?
Ill need to either buy an RO (im trad) or water when i fill my pond in next few months, i havent worked out what would be cheaper have no idea how much an RO unit is, so just wondering how much you would charge per litre?

Koi pond. Initial fill with tap water but top us and part water changes should be done with RO water.

One of my neighbours has a great pond with loads of large koi.
He NEVER puts pure water in it.
He uses a basic recycling filtration system and his water is crystal clear.

One other thing the neighbour showed me was that he had a Sturgeon fish in his pond aswell as the Koi.
Apparantley the Sturgeon eats the small bits of algae on the sides of the pond walls. I watched it and indeed it does. Which also plays a small part in keeping the water clean.

That's the answer to keeping my truck tank clean - stick some fish in it!
Google 'Plecostomus' as they're brilliant at keeping tropical fish tanks clean.
