So my wife told me I could put a little pond by our front walkway and porch~!
I figure it could be a 8'x8' pond maybe. I wasn't even thinking about measuring it but that's what I am thinking right now as I sit at work. It can be as deep as I need it to be, I'll just dig deeper.
I have a pretty good bit of experience with freshwater aquariums, but more so with saltwater. I understand how plumbing and all that stuff works with an aquarium, but i am not sure if it is the same for a pond.
Basically, I don't know anything except my wife said yes, I have space, I have a little extra time this summer, and a pond is going in my front yard.
So does anyone know a good place to start getting information or what sort of things I need to look into first?
What about getting fish do I need to know? I would like koi but do not know if 8'x8' would be enough space. I live in GA right above atlanta so my climate goes from 90 in the summer to 30 in the winter, does that matter?
Thanks in advance for any advice~!
