koi ponds
Japanese garden water
A koi pond is an outdoor water feature designed specifically to house koi, the ornamental carp bred for their vivid colors and patterns.
These ponds are typically deeper than ordinary garden ponds to accommodate the fish's size and provide temperature stability.
Koi ponds require filtration systems and careful maintenance to keep the water clean and the fish healthy.
They serve as focal points in Japanese-inspired gardens and have become popular worldwide as decorative landscape elements.
