    What Aeration Really Does to Koi

    In this episode, we talk about what I’m changing in my pond this year and why aeration has become a bigger focus for me. We get into how different air setups can actually change koi behaviour, not just water quality, and why sometimes more air isn’t always better in every part of the pond.We also chat about filtration, bottom drains, and what works in the real world rather than just on paper. There’s some proper koi talk in here about getting ponds ready for the season, what we’re seeing with fish quality right now, and how shows like the Belgium Koi Show are shaping how people think about koi.Along the way we cover future plans, new ideas in the hobby, and what’s coming up this year for The Koi Perspective, including projects we’re excited to share soon.💡 This episode is proudly sponsored by OASE: https://oase.com📱 Follow us for more koi content:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/TheKoiPerspectiveFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheKoiPerspectiveTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@the.koi.perspective🛍️ Explore our digital magazine and merchandise:Magazine: https://www.thekoiperspective.comShop: https://www.thekoiperspective.com/store🎧 Find us on Spotify and other podcasting apps:https://pod.link/1787901550Chapters00:00 Introduction and Catching Up 02:08 Pond Aeration Techniques 11:57 Rebuilding and Upgrading Ponds 18:20 Filtration Systems and Media Choices 23:31 Innovations in Filtration Systems 28:20 The Art of Show Posters 33:10 Excitement for Upcoming Shows 35:04 Planning for the Belgium Koi Show 39:01 New Projects and Innovations in Koi Keeping
