how to control/keep in check Koi/Goldfish Population?
Maybe this is the antithesis of this sub, but this is the first summer where my koi and goldfish have been large enough to breed and it's becoming a bit of a problem, lol. I had about 8 goldfish and 10 KOI. there was a spawn sometime 2 months ago, about 10-12 of the young survived, and it seems there was another spawn it seems sometime this week or last week, and there are at least a dozen fry that seem too big for the even the largest koi to eat. It's a fairly large pond, at least 2500 gallons. i've tried to remove the smaller fish to maybe give them away but theyre too fast and the pond is too big for me to really be able to catch them with a net on a stick
thanks!
