My pond is 75% complete. It's 8x8x3 and will hold approximately 1,500 gallons.
I have two 55g barrels being fed by a sequence 750 3600GPH pump the discharge side feeds both barrels connected by a tee with a ball valve on each leg so the filter input flow can be adjusted.
I'm looking for a guesstimate as to how many adult koi this pond can support comfortably. I read on this forum that one 55G barrel will handle 1500 gallons.
I'm planning on 6 to 8 adults. Is this overkill or is it doable with the extra filtration?
thanks
