How do you scare off koi preditors?	Can't Post

My crazy neighbour bought an "airsoft shotgun" to scare off unwelcomed visitors. Smile

I'm not lying! It's true!

They're not that uncommon. There are a lot of Pecan growers and cattle ranchers around here who use air "cannons" on automatic timers to scare squirrels and cyotes away. (of course they've never met Jon's wife Blush

Jon,

Is your wife really that bad? Blush

Anyways, I like your pond's design.

It would be really nice to build one like your's indoor.

Laugh

In the family room or something,,,,,,,, Laugh

Indoor, I could enjoy my koi all year round! Now, I have my three 7-8 inches koi in a tiny (compared to your's)
fiberglass pond outside. It's round and about 4 feet in diameter and 3.5 feet deep. I'll try to post some pics,
once i get a decent digital camera from my boxing day shopping.>>> Blush

Can't wait until the spring again to buy 6 more koi! With my pond, I'm guessing 9 koi is enough until I build a liner pond!!

With regards, Jarvis

Oh, the water seems to be okay. Laugh

So are my koi.

It's supposed to be winter here, but it's just raining, no snowing. Unsure

Guess the temperature outside, 7-10 degrees celcius!!!! So much for winter.

My koi are swimming around the pond eating the algea on the walls. Laugh
