I have 2 Koi fish that are approximately 8" or bigger. They are fat and healthy. My pond is just too small so this is my last year of stocking it with koi. Looking for them to go to a bigger home.

Free. If no one wants them, I will be donating them to my local fish store.

Located in Hicksville Long Island.

P.S. - If anyone knows of anyone that can help me build a bigger pond for a reasonable price, please let me know. The quotes I have been getting is 15k and higher..that's more than installing Central air :)
If I can do an 8x10 pond, that would be ideal.

Wow those are insane prices, I’m thinking about building a pond myself and digging it out by hand. Pond liners aren’t that expensive at all

My new home came with a ~1 acre bass filled pond… had to fence it in for safety of grandkids. Now I’m looking at building a dock and getting a motorized row boat … probably too expensive to convert it to Salt water!

Looks beautiful, I’m sure it’s very serene. My father in law has the same type of thing but it’s filled with vegetation at that bottom.

Yea man. I’ve been thinking of doing the same. The most expensive piece is the filter.

I got quotes as high as 25k :(

How much are the filter price outs? I was assuming the big stone around the pound and waterfall was probably the most expensive part

I’ve had a few people say the filters can be upwards of 5k. I guess it depends on how stocked you want to be and the size. There are lots of DIY filters on YouTube that I’ve been looking at as well.

I’m just nervous to start a project that I may not be able to finish lol.

Nice
My son works in New Paltz and lives in Walden
We was thinking about buying property up there too
Would love to find something like you did!
Found it on Zillow… great area to be, much better for my grandkids, only 30 minutes from Westchester. About 1 hour north of NYC… twice the space, 3x the property, and LESS taxes!
