I dont want to put the new Koi in until all the fungus has gone, Until its all clear, will it be cruel to keep them in a 20 Gallon tank?

Yes, it won’t hurt them
i would be afraid there is not enough oxygen in there to last all week. Change the water every day or every other day and you should be fine.
If they are 6 inches they should be fine.. Hopefully it is a 20 long not a 20 high… make sure you do at least one water change in the week to prevent build up of ammonia and to help prevent stress.. make sure you do a good water change in your pond also before adding the fish to it.. Good Luck…
As long as you have a filter + Pump, they will last alot longer than a week in there, we keep 6 inch koi in a 30 gallon, and we have 11 of them in there. ( At work by the way. I’m not cruel
) You will be fine 
Hope i helped dude. Zak
As long as 20g is long and not tall – a tall tank would be too narrow for it. It should have a fully cycled filter for at least 40g, keep it bare bottomed and immaculate and they should be ok but it’s far from ideal!
If you go on ebay and type koi quarantine tank tons of big containers breeders and experts use are available that are that bit bigger and deeper. For example:
Of course these still will need big filters too.
It will be fine if you do water changes or have a filtration system.
yes it will be ok if you have filtration .If you have a fungus problem in your pond ,you should increase the amount of salt . Since I don’t know the size of your pond I can’t say by how much . How long have you had the pond etc. You can e-mail me if you like. I have had a pond for 30 years.
