Nice looking pond. The picture of it filling reminds me of my son and I watching the hose running when we filled the pond. We watched for about an hour and figured we were in for a long wait.

Here is all the fish, including four goldfish, 11 koi, two of which are butterfly, and a large wild-caught river carpsucker.

Here is my smallest koi, its a butterfly koi with a gold head and a bluish body. It was born last summer.

Nice and looks like they love their new home
:D Well, they were super happy and brave for the first 5 hours or so, but then my dad dropped a rock in the water that was no bigger than a golf ball and that somehow spooked them into cowering at the bottom for the last couple hours :sour: my fish are divas.

It prolly sounded like a gunshot to them :eek:
Maybe some treats will help them get over it. My fish are always hungry pigs :)
