Well ive no doubt that one day you will have one, just as I wished one day that I would have one. Dreams can come true if you wish hard enough and want them to come true hard enough. :-)
Some very beautiful koi you have there! I'm trying to upgrade my greenhouse to have room for some koi, very relaxing fish to watch. Thanks for sharing!
Thank You JT. PS... dont forget to add the extension to your green house before you build the pond in it because you sure as shit will wish you had after the ponds up and running .....my pond started life as a 3ft goldfish Aquarium! :-D
What a fab koi pond, What dimensions is it please, You must be well proud of them fish, they are beautiful, hope you post more videos off it soon. Stephen
Hello, you have very nice koi pond with beautiful koi! thanks for this nice video! can you tell me more about your filter? thanks and a nice day Roland
I dont keep the water warm i leave it to naturally go to whatever temperature it decides to drop down to. Many a time the pond has frozen over before i built the fish house and ive never lost a single fish over it. I even leave the waterfall running through out the freezing temperatures and its never harmed the koi. As long as the pond is at least 3ft deep i personally think its a natural thing for fish to cope with as in the wild a fish has no "heater" to switch on when the winter sets in. Some people heat. some dont. One thing os for certain though, if you want to see the best colours in your Koi then its no coincidence that all the major Japanese Koi shows are held in the freezing winter months as the cold brings out their colour more than warm water does.
hi mick NICE fish very impressive pond, makes mine look tiny, ? for you, where do you buy the filter media wadding am i right in thinking this stuff has fire retardant properties? please help on this one much appreciated
Thanks Peter, i buy mine from ebay (uk) and im not entirely sure if it has fire retardant properties or not although i suspect it may have. Ive used this stuff for the last 15 years as my filter media and its never done the fish any harm even if it does have anything added to it other than the polyester itself. Dont forget to make a small pre filter that you can add a couple of layers of this stuff to to catch the majority of heavy waste before it goes into the main filter and that can be changed as often as you (usually every 3 days during the summer and less during the winter) want either by washing it out or just throwing it away as i do and simply put a new piece in.
Koi that can live in a beautiful pond are really happy. Tochigi Prefecture also has spring water that has never ceased since prehistoric times, The Koi that live there also seem to be happy. th-cam.com/video/PFi7Ju3KfIw/w-d-xo.html
If its cold water fish your after then you could always get some goldfish like Sarasa Comets and Shubunkins, both of which are hardy fish and lovely patterns which always remind me of young koi. If your more experienced, you could perhaps get some fancy goldfish such as Orandas/Ryukins/Ranchu-Lionheads etc. Check my other videos, theres some of my own Fancy Goldfish you can have a look at and see if they are the type you would like to keep. :-)
I made the filter myself, its 17ft long x 4ft high and 4ft wide which holds around 1700 uk gallons and is filled with Polyester Quilting Wadding with a small 2ft x 2ft x 2ft pre filter filled with the same material that catches most of the waste which i change every couple of days and replace with new Polyester Quilting Wadding.
MADMICKMIDDLESBROUGH hey mad mick any chance you could post the link for the quilting on eBay please mate? Absolutely blown away by the clarity by the way well done mate

Beautiful Koi fish ! How do you keep the water warm during the cold months?

Thanks so much! :)

The Koi that live there also seem to be happy. th-cam.com/video/PFi7Ju3KfIw/w-d-xo.html
I got a little 103 gallon tank for my bday I'm not getting koi cause there huge any suggestions on what to get?
If its cold water fish your after then you could always get some goldfish like Sarasa Comets and Shubunkins, both of which are hardy fish and lovely patterns which always remind me of young koi.

Thanks and I owned fishtank all my life xD so I shall take a look
The koi’s eye balls are creepy looking. 👀 is that normal?
What filter do you use? water clarity is amazing
I made the filter myself, its 17ft long x 4ft high and 4ft wide which holds around 1700 uk gallons and is filled with Polyester Quilting Wadding with a small 2ft x 2ft x 2ft pre filter filled with the same material that catches most of the waste which i change every couple of days and replace with new Polyester Quilting Wadding.
Impressive, would be great to see a video of it. What gallon is your pond? Have you finished everything now?
MADMICKMIDDLESBROUGH hey mad mick any chance you could post the link for the quilting on eBay please mate? Absolutely blown away by the clarity by the way well done mate
how deep is your pond?
Anyone else find themselves swaying to the melody?
and what if it rains a lot?
what if they breed and have like 20 babies?
I really want koi fish but I have heard thy are really messy.
I have had koi for 20 years now , how are they messy ??? If you don’t take care of them of course there messy the water that is but that’s like any other animal, if you don’t wash your dog he’s gonna be messy too ,,,lol
You have 2 gin ren in there do you know that ,its like the skin mutation go check out
Music name please?

Why many videos about fish pond have annoying music?
MANDAME UNOS HUEVOS PARA CRIAR A LA ARGENTINA
very nice koi pond. thanks for sharing. I just subscribed. check out my 1000 gallon pond on my channel cheers
your liner should not be showing up.
I would rather have bass instead of koi
+Terry Tackett yeah, but then you'd probably fish in it, catch them, then eat them, and then end up with no Bass in your pond ;-) :D
sorry, I love to catch them not eat them. I would rather study them to help me catch them
