Umm yea... confused
I ask this because I swear I saw my two fish "doing it" or some form of it since i know the male fertilizes after the eggs are laid.
Anyways.. I have a 10" butterfly white koi who has been in our pond for 2 weeks or so now.. and then I have a 3-4" white koi that has been in the pond for about 3 weeks.. The little guy has been infatuated with the butterfly.. He (i think) circles around her and is always darting around in front of her. He never gets close enough to touch or bump into her.
Then today I am not sure what I saw.. The large fish was just sitting in the pond not really moving.. I looked down and the little guy was on it's side under the fish going back and forth. It was SOO weird.. It almost looked like he was flashing in slow motion on the bigger fish.
now, I call the butterfly a "her" but I do not know the sexes of either fish for sure..
I was just wondering if this little guy is too young and this was just some weird coincidence or what.
