This was at my house 2 days ago. Plants took a beating but fish are fine.

If you don't have baby fishies from those large fish I don't know who can!  My much smaller fish are dining on caviar lately.

Beautiful pond and fish!

Thanks Annette. The pond is 5 1/2 ft deep. My fish grow big. We have a few babies every year. Some of those (from a few years back) are joining in  the spawning fun. I have found a home for 10 of the 14 babies from last year. Good thing is spawing season makes feeding them not necessary.

You have a beautiful pond & fish. Are they koi ? They look huge ! I usually raise 100 or more baby koi when my koi spawn every year. I sell them on craigs list or post them in a local pape rwhen they are 1 year old (8-10"). They go fast once I post them & sometimes I see 1-4 that i just have to keep.....just to watch them grow of course..
