| well i think the men are on nexusies/slixus i have a kk and find it works very well for my pond and looking at the pic of your filter i would say they look great they work basically in the same way vortex brushes would help you out alot in the first bay if your having it as a vortex i was surprised by how much crap these caught then jap mat then k1 http://www.blackknight.co.uk/vortex.html i will be changing over to k1 from flo core next year on my last bay with a few slight tweeks to accommodate the k1 an i would say that as long as the filters is double the size of the pond gallons/L wise you will be just fine heres what i have 2500L pond and a 5000V kockney koi so work out exactley how many litres it will be and the double the filter size
