What NOT to do with your 1,100 gallon Koi fish pond...

This is what happens when you begin a project before a baby...then, baby comes = project is forgotten.
BEFORE...


...AFTER




*********A word of advice**********
If anyone out there has a husband who one day says to you, "Babe, what do ya think about putting a Koi pond in our back yard?".......
First, smack him upside the head, then run! Run fast...so he can't catch up to you and talk you into it. Take it from me...he'll eventually convince you. Then, the next thing you know...it will have been 2 years since the nasty thing has even been touched. Your kids will want to go outback and play...but you'll tell them no in fear of some (very neglected, very angry) deformed monster Koi coming out and sucking them into the swamp!
After a while, you'll soon realize...it has to be done...the overwhelming chore of cleaning the funk. I ask all of you mom's out there...do we ever really need anything else to clean???
Nope...enough said.
In conclusion...DON'T DO IT!!!

JUST SAY NO, NO, NO,NO and again NO!!!

***(next year... he's doing this all by himself!)
