Koi Pond

i am planning to build a koi pond soon but i have a lot of worries since i am a newbie when it comes to building ponds and their respective filtration system.

the size of the pond that i am building is 13' 10'' long, 4' 5'' wide and 4' deep. So my first question is, how many gallons does this kind of pond have? (sorry i don't know how to calculate this) second question i'm worried that once i get my pond started my electric bills would go up, i mean i'd rather spend money on koi's and koi food rather than electricity, so what's the best type of filtration should i use? third...kind of pump i should buy? fourth....fifth...do i have to put oxygen pumps aside from the submersible pumps that most people use?

please help me....

Jason.
