Hello

Hello, I'm a new koi/pond hobbyist and look forward to learning more from the knowledgeable people on here. I'm sure there's a big learning curve ahead

Hello and welcome! Do you already have a pond or is it in the future? We love to see pictures!

 

[RobTay1]

Hello Mmathis, I will post some pictures tomorrow. My pond came with our new house empty or so I thought we cleaned it out including the bioforce 6000 filter system with unfortunately mains tap water. The pond was well stocked with sludge, slime, frogs and newts but no fish. I re-stocked with some nice 3/4 inch koi and plants.

welcome and sure wish you had come on here before you got koi ,I learned the hard way not to get koi .2004 little koi and then 2020 over 2 foot long koi and what a nightmare when they have babies .I am getting to old for this and just need something easier to take care of.But congrats on your new home

 

[RobTay1]

Thank's sissy, noted. long curve ahead, fortunately I've got time for a growing hobby I think

Learning curve not big! Small hill. Like ant hill. Or mole hill!

Harharhar, I'm just kidding. I've been keeping ponds for a few years now and I still feel like a novice! Yay!

Welcome! It's nice to meet you, too!

First question is how big is the pond.
if the answer is I wish it was bigger fill it in now and forget the whole thing
