i already made a thread in the general pond forum but I think this is more appropriate!
I have a pond in our garden and a few months ago introduced a few gold fish and a few koi. They have been doing really well and the pond is very well constructed so overall healthy and happy. When i got the fish I asked if they would ever spawn and the guy told me “not for a few years”. Well sure enough they spawned a couple of weeks after he said that and literally the pond is filled with HUNDREDS of little fish! They were born a few months ago now so already have grown a bit.
The goldfish we had originally were yellow and red “classic” goldfish, 3-4 speckled koi and 2 white /ghost butterfly fish.
The fry is literally all colors of the rainbow! Many plain yellow and red but many specked red and white, a few “translucent” pink and many with very distinct patterns.
They seem to be thriving.
So my question is are they goldfish? Are they koi? Are they mixed?? Are they ok??
