Hi everyone, I have a pond in my back garden it's 3000 litres, I have a few small koi gold fish and orfes, I visited Tesside Koi, a great supplier of fish and equipment! I have been bitten by the bug and decided to make my pond larger to a size of 9000 litre (2000 gallon) to house more larger koi. The problem I am having is I have been reading about water temp, and how I shouldn't change to much of the water. As it will drop to a lower temp and kill my fish, is this true? I would of course use the 3000litres of water in the existing pond and top up with chlorine treated fresh water will this be ok?

Many thanks

Welcome to our group

Test the temperature between the old water and the new water, make sure it is close.
