Damn, when will everyone or anyone, learn that without a proper pond, it won't make any difference what kind, price, or breeder of koi you have, they will all spoil,stunt or die. I think Steve agrees with this idea but he does not want to hurt anyones feelings. Now before you water gardners or plastic ponders jump in, you must understand that I am talking to real Koi people or potentials. You must have a koi pond before you can be successful with Koi. Koi ponds start with a minimum of 3000 gal and are more than 2 ft deep and have more than a little black box filter. Ok , I have let off enough steam, but if you are pissed off, good! In answer to the original question, pond building, pond building, pond building. I hope this does not stop this thread. Lately, every time I reply, it is the last reply.I really do like most koi people and I like most Koi but some of either do very little for my peace of mind. Mac
