has anyone used this net to cover a koi pond?

No, but I have for duck pens and chicken pens this netting is great. Strong and light weight. Easy to use

No, I use it to cover a fenced in chicken run. It has served the purpose of keeping the hawks from getting them, however, I would have like the netting itself to be smaller because any other type of bird just flies right through.

I would not use it with the wind blowing toward the pond. Wait for an evening where a very light wind blows away from the pond.

No I have not - but my spa is 4' above ground level and it does keep leaves/pine needles/twigs, etc out of it - would think if covered pond would work. Have found it is light weight and need to have anchors (cement block) on each side to hold in place if windy conditions.

Sorry, I haven't experienced that problem. If the net has holes in it, perhaps you can tie them closed with some form of string. I did experience some rips in the nylon shell, and patched them with the patch kit provided. Sorry I can't be of any assistance.

Ross garden netting like the 16440 3' by 50' will work well. Use twist ties to attach.

So far so good. We use for raccoons and cranes. Cats too - protecting fish in a pond! Good Luck.

I have not left this outside, but it is easy to break down and set up. The net will compact onto one 3foot aluminum segment. I have had other nets. None compare to this.

I have mine mounted on the outside of the pond. It can be mounted inside the pond just make sure it is level. I would also recommend you make sure it is big enough for your needs. Do not calculate on gallons of water. You need to calculate how many fish you will have in the pond. I have 2000 gallons with 17 koi. I have 12,000gallons worht of filter and it barely keeps the water clean. Hope this is helpfull

Never tried it. But I would think so. You would have to experiment with distance and speed to deal with the net.

Yes. I recently used a couple to put up a volleyball net in the pool - it was so much fun!

Yes it is good enough for a 200 gal, but if the pond is over loaded with fish you will have to add bio rings to keep the water clear. The bio rings also keeps the box form floating.

I recommend it. I used the Gladon Foam Adhesive. Two cans for a 21' round pool. I have to say, I like the foam. I decided to install the wall foam, foam cove and a rhino pad. It was a bit of work, but well worth it. I have not had to heat the pool nearly as much this year. I think it holds heat better over night, giving the solar cover a chance to do its job better in the morning. I also like the "soft feeling" all around. I sprayed a strip of adhesive about 10"-20" wide (top/down) and 3'-5' long (side/side) just under the j-bead and applied the foam nice and level beneath the bead. I used a trowel to smooth the foam over the adhesive and work out the air. After going all the way around the pool, I went back and spayed small sections at a time near the bottom and attached the foam. I did not worry about getting glue under evey inch of foam. It is too hard to keep the foam level and smooth working with such a large area. If the top is attached well, and there are no wrinkles, it isn't going anywhere once the pool is filled. Also by doing the top section first ad I described, it is a one person job. Good luck with your install!

Yes, I have bolted this to my deck and purchased the netting for it. It is a pleasure to relax there in the evening and not worry about bugs.

We have friends who used one for their koi but they did install a full system (filters, aerator, etc.).

We used netting to keep large prey birds off our laying hens but small birds have no problem getting through to get at the chicken feed.It sounds like you need a smaller mesh.
