A natural swimming pond is built for people to swim in, using plants and beneficial bacteria to keep the water clean without chemicals. It has a swimming area and a separate regeneration zone where plants help filter out impurities. Water circulation keeps things fresh and clear, making it safe and enjoyable for swimmers. A koi pond, on the other hand, is designed more for fish than for people.
Koi produce a lot of waste, which can make the water murky, so these ponds usually need extra filtration and aeration to stay balanced. While both types of ponds rely on natural processes, a swimming pond focuses on clean, swimmable water, while a koi pond is all about creating a healthy space for fish.
