10.  You can't have koi in a pond that also has rocks and gravel.

 

Koi are actually just a fancy variety of carp, and all carp are bottom feeders.  They love to swim along the bottom and scavenge everything that is available on and in-between the rocks.  In nature, it is not uncommon to find ponds, lakes or rivers with rocks at the bottom.  It's more like their natural environment than an exposed rubber liner, so why even think about doing battle with Mother Nature?
