How Deep Should A Koi Pond Be
Olivia Luz

The opportunity for your koi to swim up and down improves their overall body shape and provides your koi with a water depth that their physiology is accustomed to and arguably benefits from.
Experience has shown that koi will grow faster in ponds containing a greater volume but will also be more likely to develop deeper bodies enjoying the vertical scope that a deep pond provides. The ice thickness is normally 5 to 6 inches in the pond during the winter. A koi pond should be 2 feet deep for the winter. If you deduct this from the total depth one and a half feet thickness is still remaining.
A minimum of 1000 gallons in total is a minimum water volume you ll need to keep koi carp. In general around three feet deep is the sweet spot most people shoot for when considering the deepest part of their koi pond. A koi pond should be at least 3 4 feet deep to protect your fish from freezing through winter. Koi can get rather large when full grown so it s important to provide plenty of space for them to move around.
