  • Building a koi pond out of breeze blocks is a great way to create a beautiful and functional water feature in your garden. Here are the steps to follow:
    1. Choose the location: Select a spot in your garden that is level and receives plenty of sunlight. Make sure the area is free of any underground pipes or cables.
    2. Mark out the area: Use stakes and string to mark out the shape and size of your pond. Make sure the dimensions are appropriate for the number of koi you plan to keep.
    3. Excavate the area: Dig out the area to the required depth, making sure the sides are sloped to prevent collapse. Remove any rocks or debris from the soil.
    4. Lay the foundation: Pour a concrete foundation to provide a stable base for the breeze blocks. Allow the concrete to dry completely before proceeding.
    5. Lay the breeze blocks: Use mortar to lay the breeze blocks in place, starting at the corners and working your way around the perimeter. Make sure the blocks are level and plumb.
    6. Fibreglass the pond to make it water proof
    7. Add the water: Fill the pond with water, making sure the liner is properly positioned and secured. Allow the water to settle for a few days before adding any fish.
    8. Install the filtration system: Install a filtration system to keep the water clean and healthy for your koi. This may include a pump, filter, and UV sterilizer.
    9. Add the koi: Once the water is properly filtered and conditioned, you can add your koi to the pond. Make sure to acclimate them slowly to prevent shock.
    10. Enjoy your new koi pond: Sit back and enjoy the beauty and tranquility of your new koi pond!
