Hello,
My name is Kevin and my wife's name is Emmy.
We have a 6k gallon pool/pond and about 20-25 koi.
Some are in the 40 inch range, we have not added any fish for about
8 years and built the pond about 15 years ago.
I would say it is similar in size to a large doughboy pool in volume but is not round,
more a lazy heart shape and a waterfall with three drops to the water.
Once apon a time a long time ao I was a member of the Koivet forum and some other
I forget. Anyway as our pond is very stable and things did not need much changing around
I lost touch with the koivet forum and recently tried to reregister.
Much to my surprise it seems to be no longer active or allowing new members.
There are read only articals it seems.
Thankfully I was able to find this forum that seems to have life and breath.
I will make my way around and have some fun.:banghead3:
