Built a 8800 gallon Koi pond in June 2012. I stocked with 22 Koi the largest at 24" the smallest 8". I originally built a bio filter using two IBC totes. I then discovered Aquaponics and in Nov 2012 when it was time to stop feeding the fish I started replacing the bio filters with grow beds. Feb 2013 and the grow beds are complete and beginning to cycle. I have a 3' x 5' x 12" raft bed, two 2' x 8' x 12" filled with hydro clay and two 4' x4' x 12" grow beds filled with drainage rock. I have four vertical grow tubes I made out of 4" PVC I will use for strawberry. I have made three 7' long DWR for lettuce. They are connected to my grow bed drains floating on top of pond.
Built a 2000 gallon koi pond for wife. Have a couple of constant flow tanks this year to grow some of the wifes canna lilies, elephant ears, and water lilies. This winter I want to build a couple of flood and drain beds.
I am lucky that I have a lot of room to spread and experiment.

Were you on the pond tour last year? Your pond looks like a couple of photo's my wife showed me.
