: Hello,
: I have a small 8'x8', 1000 gallon pond and i have one 12'' koi in it. I was wondering if he would do alright with a few baby bass(8''). I have heard stories of Koi emmitting a posion that kills other fish.....i was just wanting to make sure there wouldn't be any problems??? Thanks
Here in PA many people put Koi in small backyard ponds.
Most of these ponds have largemouth bass and bluegills
in them. They seem to do all right. Just my experience.
Hopefully you will get a more scientific response.
