This style of the pond is just what I'm looking for, youtube has some good analytics. Can you show us how or what was used for it and cost?

[@yoDJneil]

It’s a concrete pond reinforced with rebar and it’s lined with an epoxy liner (pond armor) The dimensions are 8” x11” x 3.5”. My landscaper built it for $5k which was a steal but the cost of materials (tile, caps, pond equipment) jumped it up to $16k. The ideas for the modern design for the pond was from Pinterest.

Not worried about kvh or anything ? Risky not quarantining them

[@yoDJneil]

@@mattziegler1989 I read that next day koi eliminated kvh from their stock. I was hesitant at first. Yes definitely taking a risk. I got my UV running and feeding a lot. Now I’m dealing with high nitrite problems so limiting the feeding and also doing daily 25% water changes

That's a big pump....how far is your filtration system from the pond?

[@yoDJneil]

@@Koienterprise 45 feet from the pond. I wanted it far back enough to minimize noise but now I barely even notice it. That pump runs at 1800 watts per hour so my electricity bill is at additional $300 a month. =-/
