Koi Pond Requirements

KOI POND REQUIREMENTS -- Koi Fish can grow in big size to 80 cm or 100 cm. Koi Keepers must accomodate this potential size with large koi pond. Koi ponds come in many shapes and sizes, from the relatively modest sized pond that may hold a mixed collection of koi carp and Goldfish, through to ponds of many thousands of gallons. A pond of around 8 feet x 6 feet and 4 feet deep (2.5m x 2m x 1.2m) containing approx' 1200 gallons (5500L) would be a sensible minimum for keeping Koi in the UK or other temperate climates.
