Well good thing I had this pond built. Had an emergency situation today. After the storm last night a local guy's pond filled with mud and his lone koi needed rescuing. I brought him home and put him in the pond since the temperature 50 degrees was the same. Can't put him in my koi pond till I can bring him up to 70 degrees. Everyone meet Goliath. About 26 inches and 8 lbs. pictures make him look small trust me he is not!
