i am wanting to take an odd shaped preformed plastic liner and place it in my yard but above ground. will it look unique
it depends on how you do it. preformed plastic liners all look the same, to make it unique you will need to landscape around it and maybe also use water plants in it a word of caution - i hope you don't have raccoons in your area, they like fish. unless the plastic liner is at least three feet deep the fish can't get away
You can put it above ground. Here's one way: Put the liner where you want it, then build a box around it. Using landscape timbers would probably be easiest. Now fill the pond with water. No fish yet, but with the water in the pond, fill around it with soil. When you are finished and the pond water is filthy, pump it out. Now fill the pond with the water the fish will swim in. Add dechlor, massive amounts of filtration, a pump and put the koi in. Preformed ponds are usually 18 deep, so the koi will not do well at all. They like water 3' deep. If you put goldfish in, you will have better luck. If you are where it freezes, your pond will freeze solid in the winter.
