Hello all,
I'm going to share my progress raising koi fry. No idea how it will turn out.
My technique doesn't appear to be conventional. I'm not using sponge filters.
130G tank, with 30G DIY garbage can filter with scrub pads. It was initially my emergency tank. Haven't had an emergency for almost 2 years so I just keep koi in there to keep bio filters up and running. I moved two of my smaller koi over 1 week ago (14-15") and spawned the next day.
This is what I have so far.
After free swimming for a while, I fed them hard boil egg yolk and brine shrimp. Some ate egg yolk and some ate brine shrimp. Today is day 2. Will be switching over to pure brine shrimp likely tonight.
