I am looking into building a pond either this fall or next spring. I live in Nebraska so it will need to be able to make it through the winters.
I would love to have a koi or 2 but everything I'm am reading says they need 1,000 gallon minimum.
I have to a lot of questions and ideas but wanted to get as much information as I can before I start.
Is it better to use the pre-formed liners or the tarp liner??? I have seen the pre-formed liners as big as 250 gallon. Is this a good size??
What kind of fish can I get ?? Koi, gold fish, turtles. ??? What kind of fish are hardy, cool looking, and will work in my pond????
I wouldn't mind having a water fall of some kind.
Like I said I am totally new to ponds so any information I can get will be great and I'm sure it will spark lots and lots of questions.
Thanks in advance
