Hi, I am from upstate NY and have had an outdoor pond for years... Newly retired, with too much time on my hands... Gardening and ponding don't keep me busy enough.....

My hubby and I have lived in this area for 36 years +

Besides my wet pets, I have a 3 year old cat "Ellie" and our Chihuahua, Harley (yes she does ride with Momma on the Road King) who was 8 this past September.

Have always wintered Koi outside and now I want to bring the whole family on in but need ideas/plans for basement over wintering pond..... that's how I found your forum :heartpump:

Will be seeing you on line . . . .

i really enjoy having them inside for the winters

I am sooooo jealous..... My husband bought me a 70 gallon aquarium so I wouldn't get down in the dumps over the winter but find I still do and worry each year till the ice goes out. They do fine every year, but I miss seeing them just the same....

Thank you for seeing my posts... just sorry no formal plans.. can you give me the dimensions?

Thanks in advance...
