Hi this is Carl the landscape guy. Today I’ll show you how the hatched baby Koi are developing in my 3000 square feet natural pond. If you’re interested in building a big pond without a liner, check out the video on my channel. Heavy rainfall in May caused an increase in water levels, and you can clearly see that the pasture around the pond is flooded. Normally, the water surface reaches right up to the reed bed, but it’s risen about 10 inches. You can clearly tell that the Koi are enjoying the fresh water. The large, newly formed waterfront areas were soon used by the Koi to spawn. Check out the koi spawning video on my channel. They swam through the reed beds into the flooded meadow and attached the eggs to reeds and rushes. Quite promptly after about 4 days thousands of small Koi hatched, right before the water level started to drop again. By their orange and yellow color, the baby koi were clearly visible in the dark water. Here I had taken some out to photograph them. At this stage the Koi grew very fast. After about 10 days they were up to one third of an inch. I could observe after a short time that they were already eating algae and water fleas. In groups of about 40,they looked for shelter under the rushes. After about 3 months, which would be August, the Koi were already between 1,5 to 3,5 inches long and even began to eat the koi food. The pond was now regularly visited by Herons and Kingfishers, who were eager to eat the Koi, as you can see here….as he eats one of, what looks like one of the bigger baby Koi. So I tried to protect the shallow water zones with nets after this happened, but as soon as the young fish swam in the middle of the pond, they were no longer safe also. So a better solution had to be made and thus a fish keeping net was made to protect the baby Koi.
There is a detailed tutorial on my channel on how to build the net. This net has a capacity of approx. 1300 gallons. The covers made of twinwall panels and nets should protect against predators and frost and through the net walls, the young fish will always be supplied with fresh pond water. The young Koi are counted before being put into the net. I put 250 of them in the keeping net. Through the cover net, the Koi can be fed easily. So far, moving the Koi into the nets has worked very well. The net is located in deep water so that fish droppings and dirt can escape below. The Koi continue to grow and are already over 4 inches long in September. I’m looking forward to spring and hope that the Koi will survive the winter well. As soon as there is news, I will report again with a video. Please feel free to subscribe to my channel for updates. I appreciate your comments and likes. Until next time, I’m Carl the landscape guy.

Very cool. Thanks for sharing! I just found a 3 day old koi trapped in the gravel of my 55 gallon tank! I'm so excited. I can't believe how he was safely trapped so the others couldn't eat him. I had no idea my fish was laying eggs. A first for me! He's got his own mansion all to him self. Fingers crossed. 🤞❤️
I too want to have a natural koi pond! Your pond is amazing!
Love this video. So nicely made.
Love your natural pond and your video
keep coming with these kool videos Carl#
Thanks, already found this video that I did ask you before. Lovely indeed, those small fry.
This is one of my favorite varieties of japanes koi fish. Good job sir. Vry nice pond for breeding kois and also for grow out..
Great idea and great videos. Enjoyed watching
loving the videos have my oun natural pond and koi. your videos have been a great insperation for my projects.
I love koi fish, they're so beautiful.
Great channel, great content!
wow that's so cool
is very entertaining to see you protecting the fish
Baby koi are hard to raise up ,those early weeks can have high mortality, but them being in a outdoor pond most certainly allowed you to have success.. very cool!! And ogon my favorites!
This is so relaxing to watch... please keep us updated
Me encanta tu idea, creo que eres excelente en la conservacion de estos pequeñines. Y sobre todo que genial que tengas el espacio, te felicito me encantan tus videos
Excellent video very well made, very informative and very enjoyable to watch!
Thank you for the great information. Will be watching your other video's, kindest regards Peter
Awesome natural pond.
That's really cool...
Great vid man. I luv it
I love your pond and your koi. When I had a problem with a Snowy Egret eating my koi, I stretched bird netting across the entire pond and secured it with stakes in the soil at the edges all around. But my pond was much smaller than yours--only about 1000 gallons. When I had another koi pond, the builder suggested "fish caves" for protection. Using large flag stones as the rooftops, he built two caves out of large stones in the deepest part of the pond. The fish learned to hide there from raccoons and birds.
Wow. Your amazing. What a genius.
thank you
Wow beautiful
This is awesome! I like the idea how you solved things. Nice lake you have there! :)
Great video Carl.
Great shot of the kingfisher
I have a man-made pond myself on my 15 acres (3 years old) in northern Alberta 🇨🇦. I love your video as you share so much amazing information. Keep up the amazing work. I subscribed within the first couple minutes of watching the first video. 🐠 absolutely love the fact that you are not using any pumps.
Can't wait to see how they continue on..
Wow...amazing

You sure got a lot of them, I sure like to get a few if you're selling them.
Will a plectosomous eat hatchlings? My mixed comet / koi fish have not bred for 2 years, I think the Pleco may be the problem?
What a great video, it's awesome to see the baby koi in your pond.
thank you, im glad you like my video
Enjoy your video logs lots, keep up the good work. Watching from England 🇬🇧
thats cool, thanks for your support! Greetings to England ;-)

I have a 25x30' natural pond. I had 28 fish in March and two months later lost 8. Heron and hawk fly in even with me sitting watching my fish. I put up 400 yds. of 60 lb. test fish line kriss/cross my pond to deter the predators. I try to stay outside as much as possible to shew away the bad guys.
I love you i like you koiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
Do you use Daphnia??? (Is daphnia water flees) How much did it cost for the whole pond?
any idea when the barbells start to appear? A friend has a koi pond with mystery fish (supposedly they were all dead at a house she just bought)
I have very sandy soil, can I still make one of these ponds?
Any news from the pond how are they doing?
Mann that is just fantastic to watch , I love Koi Fishes but my heart skip a beat with that bird swallowed that baby Koi. I wanted to go and make him puke it up and put it back in the pond.
ReVamp-Ideas 101 TV well that's nature.
Anyone else triggered when you saw the king fisher eat a koi
It's silly to be mad at nature for behaving naturally. The kingfisher has as much right to live as the koi. It's just more annoying for us koi keepers. lol
If only they had a preference for the smaller ones.
Beautiful bird

Kyleen Drake kooks are expensive
I have 3 koi fish in my backyard and I pet them no problem
Hi so I have about 5 kois who has released eggs however I don't plants in my aquariums so eggs are floating what should I do
How did the baby koi get inside the net you made so you could catch them? I have about fifty babies in my pond and can't catch them because the pond is too deep. It seems the net is floating on top of the water using the pvc...so how did they get inside?
Where are you located, i wonder?
Carl, I'm wondering where you're at, how your babies are doing now, and if you're nearby, if you plan on selling any?
👍🍹
People be like "that pond is overstocked each fish needs x100000000000000000000000000 gallons"
Count Olaf that’s like the ocean
I want to have my own natural pond also
I think I might give up my steady comfortable job to be involved with this kind of thing/hobby/job.
Do you have any plans for when the fry get larger? Sell them? Keep them?
i will keep some and sell the rest
Do you sell the koi or keep them?
Hope sir carlo you can help to my koi pond
The gold fish is a koi?
I'm waiting for the new video
In their natural environment do u need to feed them koi food?
lil bit
Can we eat koi
Where to Find Baby koi
Looked like the Yama’s colour dominated in the fry not a platinum to be seen, I had a doitsu Yamabuki ogon which outgrew my pond best looking fish I’ve ever owned. (Got some underwater footage before he moved on)
do you sell your baby kois?
Do they ever get large enough to be safe from all the predators?
well they got alot bigger but i still keep a net over the pond just in case
We are now over 7 months later... Any updates?
Darn you kingfisher lol
