Koi needed.

[Kiki2023]

Hello All! I the Philadelphia area.
I have 1000 gallon pond with 4 female koi. Looking for some male koi. 2 of my females have been carrying eggs for 3 yrs and I need to get them to drop them. If anyone needs to relocate any koi, please feel free to reach out. Appreciate you all!

Those koi that you have in there now are gonna out grow that pond of yours like, yesterday! You add more and I fear for them all! Start digging a bigger pond as koi need 500 to 1000 gals for just one of them to live well in the long run. Not trying to be mean just giving you the truth

Hello and welcome!

Are you sure that your koi are egg bound? Can you post pictures (some conditions can look like egg binding)?

Also want to comment that 1000 gallons is not appropriate for koi…..maybe 1 koi, maybe 2….but if you already have 4, are looking to add more. What kind of filtration do you have?

You are overstocked, walking the fine line of disaster.

I am in Reading area and considering getting rid of a few. Gotta confirm with the boss first.

On the koi to size……. Have 30-33 koi in maybe 3000 gallons. Is it ideal? No? Is it a maintence free pond? No
Are my fish healthy and thriving, YES
