the green mesh gate is the leaf and large object catcher before it contaminates the pond, like last time..... before it was clean you could touch it and get 5 different infections and become serously ill... good thig i used some cleaners to fix that

im not sure which fish i should add to it, probably more koi like last time or maybe a shubunkin(spelling )
last time they never caught a disease, the koi were in freezing water with 1 heater (1250 watts) but the pond was still frozen, not 1 death durring the winter, we even had fry unexpectedly, we didnt know we had them untill they were adiquately large.
