DIY above ground koi pond

[khoifish89]

The dimension are 5x4x3 ft with jebao 1500 gph pressure filter with built-in uv clarifier and jebao 1200 gph pump. Both bought on ebay for $150 with free shipping. Build this for at home koi fish selling business. First two pictures are right after finishing framing and with liner. Testing for leakage. The last two is with the pump and filter test running before buying feeder goldfish to begin cycling process. What do you think?

I don't know much about it but it looks nice. I am considering building an above ground Koi pond next year. I hope mines will look as nice as yours. What kind of Koi will you put in it ?

no koi yet, do not want to risk it as it is a new pond. will go to a walmart nearby this weekend to buy at least 30 feeder goldfish to begin the cycling process.

Very nice. Did you put in a drain?

I am building a similar one & have a leak around the bulkhead fitting for the drain.
