Hi Everyone,
I am a newbie to ponding.
I would like to build a Koi only pond. 2' above ground and 2'-2.5' below ground. Using treated 4x4 lumber (for the above ground frame) ,plywood,isulation, pre-liner, liner, BD, TPR's, Skimmer etc...I don't want to go on til I learn a little more.

I have been reading a lot of posts here on this forum and am learning a whole lot. This forum is the BEST!!!

I was hoping that you maybe able to suggest books that I may 1) purchase or 2) check out at the local library. I also plan on subscribing to Koi oreintented Magizines too.

I want to become as educated about this fun hobby as possible.
I have been looking in your archive library too. What great articles. I would like to plan as much on paper as possible before starting to dig "the hole".
I plan on looking up our local koi club too.

My wife is becoming frustrated with the amount of time that I am on the computer reading the posts on this forum. So, reading material that I could read while sitting next to her on the couch would sure go a long way to earning me some points.

Thanx in advance,
Vince
