Renter-Friendly Koi Pond

The most labor-intensive step to building your own koi pond is digging the hole. To avoid that issue, you can opt for an above-ground koi pond. It’s also a great choice for renters because you can take it with you when you move.

This Lily Clear View Garden Aquarium, made with an interlocking wood frame, includes large viewing windows.

Brick Koi Pond

Here’s another above-ground pond, built by @whiteley_home with concrete and brick. The rectangular shape and clean lines give it a more modern look, compared to a traditional organic pond. It also includes a pump house and fiberglass window for easier viewing of the colorful fish.
