I don't know if anyone remembers xxKoiQueenxx, but this is me, just a new username. :)
Anywho, the following year before we had our first year of spawning happen. It was going well, they were starting to look like mini kois, until one day we went to our fry pond and they were all gone. No dead fry, just an empty pond.
We think that something either came and ate them, or the mosquito larvae that we found in there ate them.
Well we have four females that are just packed with eggs and this past week we've been hoping they would spawn in their original pond, but that didn't seem to happen.
So we placed our female shiro bekko, and a gin rin male & our tancho sanke male into the fry pond and this morning they spawned.
We removed the koi and placed them back in the pond, they fish are fine.
There are eggs EVERYWHERE. our fry pond is 8X3X3(or maybe 8X4X4) and the eggs cover the bottom, the sides a little and the few hyacinths in there.
I'll post pictures of the kois that bred soon & here's a picture of our fry pond.
This was taken when we had the fries, so they 'airbars' aren't in there.
Just wanted to share with everyone :)
