The hopefully was that I was unsure if I knew how to post the pics.
The pic above is my existing pond 2000g containing solely koi,I had a previous pond that had shubunkins,Goldfish of various types and a couple of koi. I now only have koi having moved all the others to a friend who recently built a pond.
This is a pic of my first pond that I had for a little over a year until I decided it wasnt big enough for koi,im thinking of upgrading again to maybe 4000 gallons and having it covered next year 2010.

Nice looking setup G. Are those railway sleepers you used?

Everything looks wet though - couldn't be rain, in England, surely?

Cheers,

Mike

Anytime I see something screech across a room and latch onto someone's neck, and the guy screams and tries to get it off, I have to laugh, because what is that thing?

Looks great, fits well asteticly in the yard.  What are the dimensions and depth, I can never tell from looking at a picture to me they always look smaller then they really are.
