    What’s is best

    As my pond is brick built but has a liner in it, I was thinking of putting my koi in a holding pond, then concrete the bottom, so I was wondering is it best to fiberglass everything or use a rubber sealer then paint over it, as I’m looking at cost

    Fibreglassing is more expensive but if done correctly will last 20 years +
    Sealing with paint from past experience doesn't last more than a few years and will need regular maintenance
