Hey John,
My Koi pond is 20x24 feet and 4 ft in the center, 3 ft on the edges.
It started 14 years ago when I bought 1 of those perform ponds from home
depot and bought a couple of Koi from a pet store not educating myself and
going on what the seller said.
Needless to say my 2 Koi outgrew the perform in no time. So after reading
everything and talking to a couple people on Koi pond sites I grabbed a
shovel and didn't stop until a week later. lol
I have the same 2 Koi I started out with. 1 is 27 inches long and the other
is 22 inches.
I have a biological filtration system and 2 uv lights that keeps the water
crystal clear.
I have 2 resident grass snakes that live out by the pond that help thin out
the babies being born every year, along with a bull frog.
I give some away but always make sure I tell people they are not aquarium
fish, they are "pond" fish.
Txs for asking
Tatts
