Re: habitat/ponds

Koi are carp. Know the joke about cooking carp on a shingle? They taste like hake with zillions of small bones.

I agree, koi ponds are much more work and less attractive. My 2"
koi
grew to be 4ft in 5 years and multiplied worse than rabbits. I wish
my
pond was not so deep.

4'!  Lordy, Donna, that's huge.  Like a mini whale.  What do you do
with a 4' fish in a pond?
