In summertime, all you need is a pump to circulate the oxygen. Remember to clean the pump out, too. In the wintertime, get an oxygen circulater so the fish can survive below the ice. Don' t be too worried about feeding them while on vacation. All you have to do is feed them extra before you leave and they will do fine.
My pond is already over populated. We took what we thought was most extra fish out in the spring. But a couple of dozen small ones were hiding on us. Is there any chemical or natural way to remove the urge to breed without harming fis health. I started with two gold fisk and 5 small koi about five years ago. Now there are about 60 including last years births. The pond is about 2000 US gal.
If you are asking how many eggs (ova) a Kio carp releases when spawning then the answer is many thousands.
you kill the algae
Spawning is breeding goldfish
Koi are omnivorous and will eat just about any fish that is small enough to fit in their mouths. Koi are essentially pond fish and were bred with broad colourfull backs and grow to over 2 feet long to be viewed from above.
Salmon are plentiful in these rivers when they are spawning.
No, they`ll keep spawning.
spawning grounds are where salmon and other fish lay their eggs
Yes my koi reproduce every year. All it takes is maintaining good water quality and providing adequate cover (plants, cracks between rocks etc .) to keep the fry from being eaten. Otherwise you have to use spawning mats and then remove the fertilized eggs from the pond and raise the fry in a separate fish tank until they are big enough to survive in the pond.

induced spawning is an artificial breeding of fishes same as induced breeding.
The moon fish reproduce by spawning. All fish reproduce by spawning.
Koi is a type of fish. Just don't put koi in the pond and it will not be a koi pond.
Koi breed once a year around spring time when the temperature changes. There are many factors that determines the amount of eggs a koi will produce. Diet or the fish's state of health can affect it. For a koi fish in good health and approximate figure is about 45,000 per pound of fish. Don't worry, the other koi fish will eat most of these eggs. for more info please visit: http://forum.californiawaterscapes.com
