Hey Fishylove, Thanks for the advice and I'm sure your right about them getting along. I guess it was a little tongue in cheek in that I have always been a goldfish person. It's not so much how they would feel but in reality how would it affect me. Just curious how big is your pond? I have 28 fish in about a 600-700 gallon pond and I expect a lot of the current fish to keep growing. I'm not sure if the pond could handle a koi and to me it's too small right now. I have always wanted to enlarge it but I have tried it before and it could reignite spousal wars if I tried it again. If you have ever watched "Game of Thrones" that's nothing compared to what could happen here. Now my wife is saying I could make the pond larger but she wants a new kitchen first so you can kind of see what I am going though here. I have seen where people have mixed in just butterfly koi with goldfish and I heard it makes for a good combination, so I am intrigued by the idea of maybe adding a really pretty koi. I am probably the typical ponder. All my fish are healthy and the pond is running really well with no issues at all so I feel compelled to do something to screw it up!
