Hello. Originally I had a small koi pond (300 gallons) for a little over 2 years and my then small Koi never had fry. I moved to a house with a BIG yard and now have 1500 gallon pond. I transferred my 2 previous butterfly koi (pictured when I first bought them in a bag). Not long after I purchased larger black and orange utsiri.
After the move (a year later) someone gifted me one shubunkin(?) and I have purchased a few more koi (yellow, white, and orange) along the way. My son also threw in a goldfish my husband won at a local fair three months ago. This is the first time I have ever had fry in my pond. I’m just curious to know if they are goldfish or koi? I have more, all assorted colors - black and orange, plain white, orange and white, grey and bright orange, calico and some that are black and red. They seem to be about an inch or so . The newest tiny tiny (8-10 centimeters) look black or grey in color. They are hard to catch. I have added a picture of the only two I was able to catch as you know they as fast as lightening (pictured in my hand). I thank you in advance for your help/input.
