It's not a stock tank, it is my orphan koi, aquaponic vegetable tray and water lily raising pond. It's got an inner plywood wall, cinder block outside perimeter wall, underlayment and liner. Pump chamber is below the bottom so I can keep the pump running with 2 or 3 inches of water in the pond when I need to catch fish or clean up a bit.

I feed my fish a couple of times a week. the more often you feed koi the faster they get large and in my case, that means they are going to visit the arboretum or botanic gardens sooner, which means I have to catch and transport. In the wild a fish doesn't eat every day, and boy do I have plenty of bugs. I think they eat a honeybee now and then too
