Hey, I was wondering something. Was looking at some koi on E-Bay and asked the seller if they would ship safely now with the cold weather, and he/she said sure, no problem. Then I said I would probably buy small ones, put them in inside aquarium until spring, and asked if that would work best, or if they could possibly go into my outside pond, which is at about 40-45 degrees, and the temps are predicted to be only in 40's and 20's next week or so. He said "koi are cold water fish, so they could go into your pond."
What is your opinion on this? I don't think I'll be buying any koi in the winter, unless they go really cheap, but just wondered opinions.
Thanks!
