Moved House, Onto Bigger Things..

[KrazyKuhli]

Moved house 2 months ago and the new garden is huge, managed to persuade the wife into letting get a pond =). Bought a preformed one off Ebay 6x4ft 300L and was happy untill I had dug the hole and placed it in....Filled it up and the next day the water level had dropped 5 inches as there was a crack on one of the raised shelves....Took it out and decided might as well go the whole hog and made the hole 150 x 110 x 60 cm. Gives me roughly 1000L of space...Current fish are in my 200L tank and are growing fast:

Smaller koi 3inches:


Larger koi 4inches:



Love the second one as it's really Golden and shimmers in the light.

Will post pictures of the pond when the liner arrives and I carry on =D

How exciting! Wish we had a pond I think the first one is beautiful, the 2nd is good too though!

Love how melodramatic the dark golden coloration of the first koi brightens up the water.

Congrats on the move!

Pond is nearly done, just waiting for some plants and my solar fountain....also I plan to have weather loaches and want to put some gravel in there...Do I get black/dark gravel to show the fish up more of natural light brown gravel?

Just gotta naturalize the area up a bit now.

Great job up-til now, best wishes for the finishing of this project greatly. Waiting for new update about this project. I have a suggestion regarding pond liner, if you see water level dropping in your pond and liner become leaky then you must try pond liner repair sealant by Pondpro2000.  Thanks
