Koi are amazing. They go all winter without eating and remain robust and beautiful. Last winter was my first winter and my fish were much smaller and as I live in Zone 8b winter was not too cold. Last year the fish would often com up to the surface and eat a little. This year they have grown to at least 12 to 14 inches and they have not eaten or come to surface for food 10 weeks. It has been colder this winter. Today they are all swimming around like on a summer day. I looked at each koi as best I could and they all look like really good koi, not really award winners but they are my friends. It will be another month before spring for the koi will arrive and I cannot wait for another year. How they survive all winter is just amazing.
