      My ponds and Koi

      Here's my two ponds, 2000L fancy Goldfish (that I've really become attached to) pond. And another 2000L pond that I was previously using to breed blue crayfish.

      Plan is to upgrade from the 2 x 2000L ponds as my Koi grow to a single larger pond.
      Cheers

      Thanks for sharing... How long have the pond/frame been in use? Just curious of the lifespan for them

      I've had these ponds for 2 years, had 2 x 1000L ones with PVC framework for over 10 years, the ones I have now say Life time more than 10 years.
