Where are you located?

 

Chatu Chak market has a large fish section for pumps, filters etc although I got our UV from the UK as the ones I found here were all cheap Chinese carp.

 

It's also worth looking at forum sponsor SwimmingPoolsThailand http://swimmingpoolsthailand.com/en/147-fish-pond-filter-systems as they carry high quality (not cheap) koi filters, pumps and UV (and they do mail order).

 

Also try a Google search, there are many places selling koi, one would imagine (I know TiT) that they also sell the kit to keep them happy.

Not familiar with Lomsak but if you're remote, head into the nearest largish town/city area or even a good size market and ask the guy selling aquarium fish.  He may not sell it himself, but could likely provide a lead to someone who does.

How kind, wanting to feed the local birds!

 

I wonder how long it'll be before we see another thread like

There are koi clubs and societies in thailand...Google to find them. I'm sure they can give you some leads...also, there seem to be aquarium shops and pet/fish markets in most towns..
