Koi Pond Water Temperature

Koi Fish and garden ponds are naturally heated up by the sun. Ponds with large volumes of water and/or deep water will take longer to heat up. Furthermore, water requires a lot of energy to heat it up so it will take many days of hot sun before a pond’s temperature warms up. Conversely, the pond will keep its temperature for several weeks after the first cold snap of autumn. Koi Fish , like all fish, cannot control their body temperature, so whatever the water temperature is will be the temperature of fish, too.
