*Note: There are two "Koi-Lo's" on the pond and aquaria groups.

Thank's to all
2 questions that were not answered.
1. Do they have to have soil?
2. How deep or how far do they have to be from the water line?

==================================
Soil: In my opinion and in my ponds and water conditions - yes.
Depth: I try at have at least 18" of water over the rim of their pots.
About 12" for the mini lilies.
