Give them time, they’re in a new environment and aren’t feeling at all secure.
Whatever you do, don’t be tempted to add more fish at this stage. It takes lots of time for filters to mature and in that time you need to feed very little in order to keep pollutants from fish waste or uneaten food from building up in the new pond.
theyre probably sulking- theyll come round
i had a friend who did a business studies disertation on koi carp breeding called dont be koi about koi carp breeding
seriously!
now give me best answer
It will take a few days. You need to make sure there are other places to hide too. If there are no places for the fish to feel comfortable then they will just spend thier time hiding.
don’t worry they’ll be swimming around in no time. when i introduced mine they were swimming around by now but some take longer usually due to water conditions. give them time as your pond is still probably cycling. good luck
