Go see this folks, as Martin indeed makes amazing pictures !

Yup Lee, I'm fairly "new" to the Dutch koi scene (discovered it only last
July!) and it is a very thightly knit community with people helping each
other out with designing & digging new ponds, or koi-sitting s******.

Even though the average Dutch garden is the size of a handkerchief, it's
amazing how great ponds they make (often covering about 90 % of their
garden.) Most are very "pro" like (bottom drains, excellent mechanical
pre-filtering, and quite advanced bio stages, winter isolation, at least 2
meters deep etc...).

Martin is a regular on the different forums, and his pictures are well known
and respected.

Take a look at this sturgeon for example :
