About Pond Bottom Drains

Bottom drains are a must for a successful koi pond. To maintain proper water quality you need to get the fish waste into the filter so it can be removed from the system.

Without a bottom drain, the best filter in the world can not do it’s job properly. Some ponds may require several bottom drains. That shows how important they are to a successful pond.

Some manufacturers would have you believe that a bottom drain is not required. By simply placing rocks on the bottom of the pond and allow beneficial bacteria to grow in the rocks you will duplicate what you find in nature and everything will be just fine. The problem with that reasoning is that in nature you often have a constant supply of fresh water entering the river or lake and the fish population is usually about one fish per 30,000 gallons whereas, in a koi pond you are constantly recycling the same water over and over again and the fish population averages about one fish per 150 gallons.
