Try to put in a nice little viewing deck below ground level into the water port hole style ....
Maybe even do a little barbless fishing on the weekends ...

nearly shitted myself
For example I heard of someone who kept guppy fish in a pond, they would do great in summer (it gets to 30-35 degrees c in here) but would die back in winter.
How about discus or neon fish or anything else that's not goldfish or koi?
Just thick enough?

I didn't put sand as a medium in the bottom of a pond this small...because the fish will mess with it, stir it up and potentially keep the water murky. They already pull the rocks and dirt out of my planted pots.
The end result is so lovely to look at.
How often will you need to do water changes?
How are the koi doing now?
I know if it's cold an ice, you have to dig it that deep and they can survive an plus pond heaters.
On a more positive note... beautiful results!
