koi ponds as most people do them
are much more pump intensive with filters and showers and bottom drains
that run full time
plus air pumps
I am considered a Luddite for the way I do my pool/pond by koi fanciers
it is a concrete block 37x17x9 that I just fill and dump every 4-6 days
with no filters as S fla ground water is under 10 ft down and flowing
that does require two pumps one removing one adding to get 120% water changes
but I only part fill the pool/pond as that uses far less water and protects the koi from birds [we have lots of wading birds with the glades and bay near by]
koi keeping is fun but as much or more work then a pool and more pumps filters and stuff to mess with also
