Koi fish are bred especially for purpose built ornamental ponds. Breeding of these fish has been successfully mastered and perfected by the Japanese over many, many years. From all this history on Koi keeping we know that they need specifically designed ponds which have depth and vertical sides to limit sudden temperature fluctuations and to provide the ideal habitat in which these fish can thrive. To be successful at keeping Koi the conditions within the pond need to be right. In this article we discuss design considerations to ensure your Koi thrive to their full life expectancy.

So, you have decided you want to install a pond in your garden but can't decide which will be the best way to line your build. Choices include a prefabricated glass fibre pond, a sheet 2-D liner or a box-welded pond liner. Each option has it's merits as well as features that need some further consideration before making your final decision. Box welded pond liners are a convenient alternative to installing a flexible 2-D pond liner for vertically sided ponds and particularly those built to home Koi carp.
