 An outdoor garden pond is the ultimate setting for fully appreciating the beauty and elegance of Nishikigoi.
The most favorable setting for koi is a recirculating system that has excellent filtration, both mechanical and biological.
Outdoor ponds can be constructed with concrete, fiberglass or even butyl liners.
Koi are hearty and relatively easy to raise. However, to ensure their health and optimize enjoyment of their company, enthusiasts need to plan their pond environment carefully. Not just any pond will do. Only after the right pond is constructed, or refurbished, should the selection and acquisition of Koi begin.
