Babolat asked:

We have a lake nearby where someone has released some Koi fish. They have reproduced and I was told they are threatening the native bass and bluegill population. Therefore we need to fish them out. What is the best bait I can try? I have read there behavior is similar to natural carp so that might be a start. Thanks.

many19 asked:

Can I treat the fish in the same tank or should I separate it to a containment area, what kind of chemicals or care should I take?

littlemiss_daisyrock asked:

I have a variety of koi in my pond, plus sturgeons,rudds, grass carp and orfes. One of my small koi (3inch) keeps hiding behind the plant. The first time i saw it I thought it had got trapped so i went in with the net to rescue it. The fish swam back to the rest and i thought nothing of it. But for a good few months now nearly every time i’ve gone to look its been there behind the plant. It does swim around now and again. But it always goes back; while the rest stay in two groups.

dtsuldin asked:

I want to start a Koi aquarium, but I know koi’s get massive. I don’t have a pond and even if i made one idk if there is enough space in the yard for it. I know they live for like 30 years, maybe i would have moved somewhere bigger by then? So im wondering how long i can keep them in a fairly big aquarium before they get too big?

I dunno, some 1 said if your pond isnt deep enough and winter comes you will need a heater?
