Hi everyone.... I am actually very very new in raring koi. Recently, i've converted a rather small tub (those blue one that is used in aquarium shops) and placed around 25 '3-4 inches koi' in it.... and another 3 koi from my old aquariums that are around 5-6 years old. After i placed them in, the three bigger ones seemed to be chasing each other (a kohaku and matsuba).....but about two days later, one kohaku seemed to be very quiet and always at the bottom of the 'pond'. I was wondering whether the chasing was some sort of mating because right after that, the kohaku refused to move but stayes at one corner whereas the matsuba was at the side of it....as if it was guarding the kohaku. When i try to touch the kohaku, it allows me to touch..? so is the kohaku preparing to lay eggs or perhaps sick? anyway....i dont haf any thing stringi in the pond except some little stones as the base....how does the eggs look like if it ever lay eggs? please help..... any comments are wellcome....
