Koi in your Garden Pond

Koi in your Garden Pond

Spectacular! Colorful! Tame!

Koi are a great Pond Fish for larger Garden Ponds! Each Koi needs at least 250 to 350 gallons of water due to their mature size.

Nothing looks quite as majestic as a mature Koi (with a length of 2 to 3 feet) seeming to float through the water.

Koi can be tamed to eat out of your hand and will recognize their owners quite readily.

Koi live a long time...in well maintained Koi Ponds a life span of 25 years is average...but longer life spans are not unheard of.

But Koi MUST have adequate filtration, very good water quality and plenty of oxygen, especially during hot spells. Nutrition is also very important. Koi grow fast and benefit from Growth Food and Vitamin Suppliments. Their colors will intensify and literally shine if fed a good quality diet.

Beneficial Bacteria additions are a must, to deal with the waste these wonderful fish produce, otherwise the pond bottom will accumulate a thick layer of "sludge" that acts like a compost pile to feed algae.

The PondMarket carries a wide selection of Koi Food, Beneficial Bacteria and Pumps and Filters to provide a cozy and healthy home for these great pets!
