My uncle had this done at his house back in the 90's, he had two large tunnels and a massive pond in the garden, the fish swam round the entire living room back into the garden. The whole system was made with blue stone and granite. The way he had the filter system is to flow around the living room. The Koi loved the way it had a flow like a slow river, they were always doing laps around the whole system just to be taken for a ride on the slow current.
@@carolinegamblecg I write this for you and other people in future who may have questions of this set up: Would all depend on what size fish you have and pond size and power of filtration. I would not go less then 3 feet in diameter just so the fish do not get spooked by a small gap. so I would say go large as possible. My uncle did not use pipe, he had his made out of bricks with a cover of sealing cement to seal the water in. It was basically a bricked trench going all around the inside wall of the house and back out to the pond. The pond use to be a porch swimming pool. The pond and trench going into house was level with one another, and a pane of glass was used to seal the outside air coming in from the top surface of water at the wall. The water was also heated so it would never go below a certain temperature in winter and make indoors cold.
Over 40 years ago my cousin was engaged to a fellow, his parents had an indoor /outdoor Koi pond. The indoor pond was in their living room which caused some problems with high humidity. It was an amazing sight for a kid from the city who, until then, had only seen gold fish in bowls. I thought a fish tank with filtration was a big deal..... lol
🎉 This is my absolute favorite pond❤🎉 because I need this environment in the house too, I saw this done year's ago and they had chairs on the other room inside where they could sit relax and feed the fish😮, from the moment I saw it I wanted it done, now if I can only talk my husband into it😊 wish me 🤞 luck!
I have seen that before, about Twenty Five years ago I watched a house renovation program. As the owners were adding an extension to their Kitchen they built the foundation with an opening so the fish can swim right under the Glass floor in the Kitchen. That is a very beautiful Goi Pond, the only thing I would do different is I would have a Waterfall on that Pond. In ground Ponds are my favourite. I love that Asagi. Your video has been given the #30th big 👍 up! Thankyou very much for sharing. Take care. 👍😊❤️
@@TheKoiPartnerMy pleasure Sir. That is alright. It happens. I have found comments that were held for review from One Year ago or even Two Years ago which is surprising because I never knew that. I find also with a Cellphone you are not able to see those comments, I can only see them on my Laptop or from a Computer.
What a spectacular pond and the koi are simply amazing. I've often spoken about having an indoor and outdoor pond connected with a tunnel but never had the finances to build one. Wish this one was mine. Quite the filter system as well. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for sharing. Such a beautiful pond with amazing koi. Hope my koi fishes will grow to this big. Will have to removed some kois and step up my feedings.
Another stunning pond, totally original layout, great idea if I move back to England if I build a pond it will have to be indoor-outdoor. Pass my compliments to Simon
Wow what a fantastic koi pond one of my favourites so far. Love the overall design of the garden. The tunnel that leads into the conservatory is genius wonder how many people will be doing that now. Incredible koi nice mix love to see when a pond isn’t just filled with gosanke. Thanks for great video merry Christmas 🎄
Wat ziek hey! 😮😮😮 die buis naar binnen ook ... Heel vet man! Lekker bezig met de content ook man 👍🏼 Heb je buiten dit kanaal om ook werk/gewerkt in de koi business of?
Hi Ww, ik heb een webwinkel gehad met voer van 2012 tot 2018. Ik ga in het nieuwe jaar weer starten met een nieuwe 😊 verder veel bezig met het promoten van onze de meeste leuk Hobby(s) vijver en Koi.
Great video, lovely pond, garden and filtration system. You didn't mention if the pond is heated? Do all the koi try to go inside when the temperature drops and does Simon cover the outside pond in the winter? I understand if you haven't time to reply but it would be interesting to know. Thanks for another great video. 😀👍
I have always the time to reply to my viewers 😉 Not sure if the pond is heated in wintertime. I think the big advantage is that the water will heat up inside during the winter. Or it will cool down the house, also a possibility 😂
@@TheKoiPartner Thank you for your reply, with so many views and comments I didn't think you'd be able to. Love your videos, best koi related videos on RUclips. Keep it up, they're excellent. Thanks again, much appreciated. 😀👍
Maybe a stupid question, but how does this work during winter? Does he close it and leave them all outside? Or doesn’t the indoor pond affect their hibernation?
Hi Marcia, good question! It depends. In Holland most people use liners but in other countries they prefer also concrete. I think people are choosing the most liable option compared to the environment. But I do think it’s even between the UK and Europe. Anyway, thanks for your great question. 😃
I bought a 18cm Tosai Asagi, breeder Yamazaki, January 2021, it's now 40cm, it had minimal orange/red markings on purchase as that was the correct way to buy following all advice but now it's lost it all, do I need to be patient or do you think it won't come back?
@@TheKoiPartner Thanks, I'm really hoping it does (I paid a fair amount for it considering size), the black fish net pattern and blue scales look fantastic so it will be a real pity if it doesn't. And yes I was amazed by the growth, I had it in a 2000Ltr grow on tank at 24c until the beginning of the month, it's now in my main pond at 20c, which I raise to 24c in spring. Brilliant vid BTW, as always. Really good to see how the rest of Europe set ponds up compared to the UK.
Hi Koi Lover, thank you so much! From origin all koi are Japanse. But some country make koi to, but than they don’t call it “japanese koi” anymore. Bevestigde they need to be bred in Japan 🇯🇵
@@TheKoiPartner didn't see that, but he should. Koi are about the easest prey for herons, they are big, slow and flashy. I saw another video about koi in Singapore, there a family of otters discovered they were easy buffet. The otters made up residence in the city and not the least shy. I think they were not deterded by fish line either.
I have a question about did you put cement or rubber sheet before adding rocks and water because I am going to make a natural koi pond. Please I need a answer 🙂🙂
Hi Sue, thanks for the feedback. In my next videos I use a new camera. I’ve had the feedback before so I’ve decided to change that. Beside, thank you for watching I really appreciate it
@@TheKoiPartner it is selfish to ride horses and confine them yes. Cats can often come and go as they like so if you understand anything about living creatures it is a question of not depriving them of what they need to be fulfilled.I have ponds on my property where newts and toads come to breed but they can come and go freely.
Thank you Simon for inviting me. Your family’s hospitality was amazing! 🙏 I enjoyed it!
That must have been a very nice privileged.
I'm happy for you. 👍😊❤️

Thats a great idea the indoor outdoor tunnel between ponds
The house and pond would just fit me and I haven't even seen the rest of it. Very nice
I will ask the owner of hè want to sell it, problems with moving to Germany? 😂

What i like about the tunnel is you have a way to treat one of them if the need ever arises.
Exactly TR
Very nice Pond and had very Lovely KOI as well and have a good New Year as well

DEFINITELY the best pond I've seen , mainly because of the vision of the owner. Now, I gotta go grab my shovel...
😜 that sounds goood! Let me
Know when finished, I would love to film your pond haha

Thanks for showing the koi in detail.
You are welcome RIchard! Good you enjoyed it. Have some nice holidays. Take care Yvo
Thank you sir and thank you Simon for sharing this with the world.
That tunnel going into the indoor pond is class, what a great idea 👍
I was amazed! The big advantage here is that you can enjoy the fish during winter and summertime 😍
Amazing selection of koi Simon has 😍
Love the inground shape of the pond too
👍👍👍
Another amazing pond
Thanks Marty for watching

That's amazing😮LOVE IT😍
Love the tunnel 🔥🔥🔥
😍
😄 These Koi seem to be very brave , my first thought was "very claustrophobic" that tunnel ( same as cavern exploring ) .
Hahah, they are brave indeed. They have enough space to pass each other and don’t get stuck 😜
Very nice ponds
OMG, so beautiful

Thank you Maria, the pond is amazing. I think Simon did a great job by building it
Great idea and execution of idea. Really interested on how this affects the house temperature and humidity.
Let me ask the owner for you 😊
Btw: thank you for watching and reaching out 😃
Yes I wonder this too its the best I've seen I wonder what pipe and how big was used

Totally amazing.. Wow.. Now that really puts my ponds to shame
Every fish tank is different ;) but use it for some Inspiration for your next pond maybe? :P Have some nice holidays! Best Yvo
@@TheKoiPartner my backyard is nothing but ponds and decks.. Thanks.. Merry Christmas
😙😙woow
Wow
how do they prevent predators from eating the koi? how deep is the pond? thanks
The owner have put fishing Line above his pond, maybe you can see it on the drone footage ;)
FAR OUT!
how to tell from young its a jumbo koi ? one of reason i dont like cave or tunnel in pond , because there is a chance a sick koi might die inside it
I think it works fine, the Koi have enough space to pass each other.
Should get a tunnel camera? 🧐
Hi Joe, that’s is actually a super idea 😃
Maybe a stupid question, but how does this work during winter? Does he close it and leave them all outside? Or doesn’t the indoor pond affect their hibernation?
Very good question! The pond stays
Connected during the winter time 😊

@@TheKoiPartner thank you for answering 👍 it's great seeing what is possible to make
I think the tunnel is too long. It's a good idea but maybe both ponds should be closer together.

that is amazing growth! Yes, always be patient with Asagi. The orange will come back later and very strong!

I want to see that 😜
hoe doe je dat in de winter dan??
Hi Taz, binnen is verwarmd 🙈
How much did it cost 💲
Great Idea! Can I to copy that??
Yes
Some how this owner managed to prevent his koi pond becoming a heron's breakfast table.
Not sure if it’s good to see on the drone footage but he actually used fish line over his pond to keep those bastard out 😜

No matter how large these connecting pools are it is selfish to confine fish to artificial pools or ponds
