CN,

It is not that big of a thing. Correct stocking
levels, correct feeding procedures, and diligence.
Paying attention to water quality is the key. If you
have good water you will have great fish.

Depending on your pond size a good filter is
imperative. There are many to chose from and plenty of
instructions on the Internet for you to find to DIY
one. Remember here, to build or buy bigger than you
need. Don't skimp here. Always get pumps for maximum
flow and here too it is a good idea to get more than
you need in volume per minute. KOI and Goldfish,
although they are beautiful they can be dirty fish.

One of the hardest thing for many ponders to deal with
is stocking levels. If you fish are great they are
going to breed which means additional fish in your pond
which upsets the closed environment of your pond. Get
rig of all unnecessary fish. If not you will have
water quality problems.
