A friend of mine had a "koi Pond" built by a member of the IPPCA, after the homeowner started losing fish after 6 months, they started to question what they had as a koi pond. Well after research they found out they had a water garden pond.. " not a true koi pond". Well a member of the IPPCA, in California was going to rebuild this pond with his fellow IPPCA members, it was going to be the "top Gun" of koi pond rebuilds, is was to be built to Burt Ballou's exact specifications, regarding depth, filtration, drains, etc.. A little debate went on over the filtration and specifications with the contractor. After the home owner got wind that there home was going to be turned into a 3 ring circus. They choose not to have this contractor build there new pond

As time went by they finally convinced Frank to build them there new pond, here are some pictures of the before and after.
