Thanks!

I need to learn more about the koi and they chemistry of the water before I build the new pond... any books you recommend?

Just reading up on the care of fry got confusing, I found many different approaches. and recommendations for feeding.

My initial thoughts on my new pond - is to use the smaller one as as a filtering pond with many plants...connect the two with a waterfall, I dont get too many days below freezing but Id like to go deep enough that I wont have to worry about it. Id also like to go about 2 ft above ground to keep some of the debris from blowing in, and control run off (if it ever rains here again)

Im so glad to see such an informative website - Ive been reading a lot of the previous posts. Id like to see a show someday - do they ever get near Denver?
And thanks for the kind welcome - I may not post anything more than questions for awhile, but I'll be reading daily.
