Like most people Richard Laing started off with a 250 gallon pond. It was a small plastic insert with just 7 Koi that you would buy from any pet store or local garden center. He enjoyed watching them swim and grow so much that he put a 1200 gallon pond in, and got even more Koi. Then someone introduced him to all the different types of Koi and that was it. He had to have the best Koi with all the different colors and patterns, and from there he found the importance of a pond with bottom drains.
He wanted to start his own business in selling Koi and installing ponds so he moved out to the country where he now has an 8000 gallon pond and coming soon will be a 30,000 gallon pond. He wanted to show people that there is more to the Koi then what you can get at any of your local stores, and give people a pond that you can see your Koi all the way to the bottom no matter if your pond is 4 foot to 8 feet deep.
