No, unless you want the catfish to eat all your koi/goldfish--catfish grow fast and they will eat anything, including your other fish.

I have Blue Channel Catfish from about 1 inch two years ago, now 14 inches mixed in with both large and baby Koi. The Catfish eats the Koi food and interacts with them like nothing. I have never lost a fish. I think the key is getting a catfish when they are young and they can adapt, they're mostly bottom feeders and won't harm your Koi based on my experience. Make sure they start small though.


No! the catfish will eat your other fish.

Start out by putting like 3 goldfish in with the Bass, and see if the Bass are aggressive towards the goldfish. If they aren't, add more. Depending on how big a pond or aquarium you are keeping them in. If it's an aquarium, its 1 in. of fish per U.S. gal. Exept for marine, that's 2 in. of fish per U.S. gal. If it's in a pond, it's 2 in. of fish per U.S. gal. I think you can only keep coldwater fish in a pond unless it's inside with lots of heaters.

Yes they are related and can live together in a pond. Goldfish and Koi are essentially pond fish. Koi were bred with broad, and colourfull backs specifically for viewing from above. They also grow to over 24 inches long, so they are way too big for most fish tanks.

Koi Carp and Goldfish can cohabit OK. They should however be kept in a pond. Koi grow to over 24 inches and were bred to be viewed from above. Hence the colourfull, broad backs.

no you can't goldfish eat their own babies and poop so if you put them in you should probably put ALOT of hiding places so they don't become dinner

You only have one catfish and a few goldfish and the catfish had eggs how?

Catfish eggs are fertilized by the male after being They must be goldfish eggs. It is nearly impossible to have catfish breed on their own in a tank or pond. Any fish female can have eggs, the eggs are fertilized after the female lays the eggs. So if the eggs hatch then most likely they be goldfish.
