If you want to dig a fish pond in the yard to raise fish and grow lotus flowers, how big should you dig?

I also have a yard. When decorating the house, I was "arty". I dug a round fish pond with an area of 2 square meters and a depth of 5 centimeters in the corner of the yard, with colorful rockery fountains in the middle. Carassius auratus was raised in the pond, and flowers and trees were planted around it. It was really beautiful. Generally speaking, the surface area of fishpond is 3-4 square meters, and it is not more than 5 square meters at most. Because fishpond is the finishing touch of courtyard decoration, it aims to set off the courtyard. If the excavation area of fishpond is too large, it will be asymmetrical with the courtyard area, which is a bit presumptuous.

size, in fact, one square can grow lotus, and if you want to raise fish, the area can be larger. If the yard is not big, three or four to 1 square meters will do, but it is best to use pebbles or stones to protect the edge of the pond, which is both beautiful and can prevent the small pond from getting muddy when fishing. Fish pond water should be reused and not wasted. After all, most courtyard fish ponds are supplied with tap water, and it takes a lot of water to replenish the fish ponds once, resulting in a lot of cost, and it is also a long-term cost, so the water must be recycled.

In winter, when the water surface freezes, fish are prone to death due to lack of oxygen. Usually, it's very difficult to clean up sundries on the water surface and trim aquatic plants. In addition, there are small children at home, and the small fish pond is easy to cause drowning accidents for small children, which is extremely unsafe. The small fish pond is equivalent to burying a time bomb in the home. The west of the courtyard is the most suitable for building fish ponds, while the middle and north of the courtyard are the most taboo. In the west, geomantic omen belongs to gold, while gold begets water, which is a way to make money in itself. If you swim in a fish pond with a few koi fish tails, you will gather more money. Finally, I'll give you some suggestions. Don't put too many fish in the new pond. The less the better, the cheaper the better, because in the process of raising water in the new pond, you will experience the fish flowing in the iron pond. When the fish will no longer die, the aquatic plants will feed and the water in the pond will remain clear. Even a small courtyard or even a balcony can be built with a fish pond. I have a small courtyard with less than 3 square meters, and I am in the courtyard.
