hey, ok its me again, ok so i see that making an
aquarium might cost a lot
so how about making a pond, for an apartment
2 story apartment, meaning putting it outside, in
the cold. well it doesn't really get cold, but sometimes.
so how would i make a simple pond which will be good enough
for the koi. The width of the outside of the apartment might be 2-3
feet. Can you people help?
Thank you for your time


Go to a pond supplier (or ask to see the pond inserts available from Hagen
when at a pet shop). Then you can built a cosmetic wrapper around the
insert. I made one and documented it on my web site, called Tiffany's pond.
It was quite simple, and it would be easy to build up the sides with rocks
and plants (or styrofoam boulders and silk/plastic plants). I hope your
apartment is on the ground floor ;~), otherwise you will need (I think)
permission and perhaps a structural approval (each US gallon is 8.25lbs or
10lbs when including gravel, rocks etc), so you're looking at around 3 tons
or more.
