A bit longer than you can live underwater unaided.
Not so i had 3 very large Koi snow was melting into pond I put pump in to drain some out & forgot about it Woke up the next day omg all water was gone & my 12' koi were laying on rocks sideways
took me 20 min to hook up hose & 2 of my koi came back the largest one is still on his side iam waiting & praying he comes back My answer would be when they R dormet for the winter it is easier for them to survive
they were laying like that for about 12 hrs
