Koi ponds can actually freeze over.  They just need to be deep enough to leave some water like 5ft deep. The fish will be fine if you have an aerator going (cheaper than heating) or just punch a hole in the ice.  The issue is getting them oxygen.

They can take very cold temperatures?



I like koi ponds very much, but I would only have one if they are like the ones in Taiwan with lush green settings, not snow and ice.

I hear fish ponds are really popular on Vancouver island.
