 A Koi pond is more than a hole in the ground with a liner and some water.
In order to have a healthy, dynamic pond environment you also need a biological filter, a source of aeration, a circulation pump and adequate space, or volume.
It is important to note that all of these elements must work in harmony with one another. To that end we offer Hakko Air Pumps.
