Hi, this is Carl the landscape guy. When I started my Koi hobby years ago, I didn’t think it would become such an integral part of this channel. But I'm very pleased about that and I love to give you updates on the Koi family from time to time. Thank you again to all the supporters of my channel. The Koi are developing splendidly and seem content. Now in June, the water is almost 20 ° C, like 68° F. Accordingly, the Koi are very active and are swimming all around the pond. Here we see the female parent. The Mama-Koi is now 14 years old and has been in this pond for 5 years. She is very sociable and likes to hang out with the other koi. Here we have the male parent. The all-white Papa-koi is a little smaller than the female. Here is one of their offsprings, busy searching the water lilies for something to eat. Natural food is still the best option, in my opinion. The Koi do not grow super fast, but therefore stay healthier in the long term. This fish is now 3 years old. Most 3 year olds now have a size of about 30 to 35 cm. Keep in mind that they have wintered here in the cold and were fed relatively little. Here they like to look for food under the reeds. The water level is much higher than last year around this time. Thanks to some rainfall, the water level is currently ideal. Through evaporation and also low groundwater levels from hot weather periods, the water level can fluctuate quite a bit. But in a natural pond without a liner that's completely normal. By the way, the Cormorant net has already protected the koi very well this year. Without the net, there wouldn’t be hardly any fish left in the pond. This was in spring, when the heron tried to fish through the net, but he came out empty handed. There are plenty of other lakes and canals nearby for him to go fishing. But the fish are probably not as easy to see as they are here in my pond. So now let's feed the Koi a little. As soon as they notice that someone is standing at the feeding place, they start racing each other. Today, even the Mama-Koi is one of the first ones. Usually she takes her own sweet time. Of course, the young ones try to eat as much as possible. And the white Papa-Koi is always in the front. I bet the mother says something like, "Children behave yourself, what will the viewers think! and don't learn from your father! "She stays further away and lets the youngsters eat, that's pretty interesting. So I make sure she gets an extra portion of food. I get the impression that the family enjoys the community a lot. Well (you know) obviously, they’ve met. But it also reinforces why Koi should not be kept alone. Nevertheless, I'll sell some of the koi. For this I will use a big pulling net to get all the fish out of the pond. We will see if there are any other fish in the pond. Then I will count and sort the koi. I can’t keep all of them, because that would put a lot of pressure on the water quality. Please write in the comments how many of the Koi you think I should keep. I want to ensure that the natural water quality in this pond stays as high as possible. So the upcoming videos will certainly be interesting and I’ll be happy if you would join me again. With a subscription, you support my channel and ensure that I can make more videos. Thanks for watching and have a nice day! See you soon! Your Carl the landscape guy.

Best to keep only a handful of the medium sized ones as eventual replacement parents and keep a few baby ones. Sell most of them to fund purchase of different koi stock so you can breed other colours.
Keep only 10-20 and grow them to full size. Then breed again other variety of kois! I kept on waiting for your next video and I love your channel. I enjoy seeing someone handling these creatures as sort of a passion. Godbless friend! Greetings all the way from Philippines 🇵🇭
Wow, you have so many koi now. I wish I have a pond like your. Keep doing the good work
thanks
I watch the channel because of the koi.
Keep them all that's why we watch ur videos
With u since their breeding! 😀keep making vdos. Keep breeding kois
Hi Mr. Carl I love your videos. The baby Koi has gotton so big. I would keep about 20 babies and sale the rest bc Moma and Daddy may make more babies. They are all so very beautiful Mr. Carl. Thank you for showing us how big they have gotten. Love your channel.
Awsome been with you when they were just small fry well done they look healthy and happy that’s all credit to you hard work and effort 👍👍👍👍
i always been waiting u to upload a new ved.about your koi
Beautiful pond and gorgeous Koi . Thanks for up loading this nice video , I find it so peaceful to watch !
Look at that ! How wonderful of your koi that’s cool I’m your fan from thailand
Im jealous. You successfully made them survived
thank you so much ! im here for the koi ! and i cant wait for the koi uploads!!
Great series on the pond and koi, Carl! If you haven't already netted and sorted your fish, I would consider keeping only 10-12 of the very best brightest and largest offspring, then introduce some new parent fish to prevent inbreeding. You already have an excellent parent pair, so a male orenji ogon (metallica orange) koi would give you some more variety in the metallic shades of the offspring. A female platinum ogon (metallic white) would also potentially mix well with an orenji ogon. I'd also really like to see a male and female shusui (blue and orange with large scales) added, as these may produce a very rare midorigoi (green) koi when crossed with a metallic koi, so that could be an interesting project for you! I think if other varieties of parent koi were introduced, they would give much lower colour standards in the offspring than the mix mentioned above, unless you were to try to pair them up and selectively breed them (which is a fascinating subject, which if you're interested, is well worth researching!). I'd be interested to hear what you think, and I look forward to seeing your netting videos!
I can see, that you love your koi, that's why I like to watch your videos. I subscribed not to miss one.
Happy Koi family :)
If I were you, I'd sell few and buy other colored ones, just to add variety! Perhaps, later with increase in number of Kois, you could add some filteration to maintain water quality!

Love ur vdo
Your net - When did you get your large net? Beautiful pond. We really enjoy the videos!!!
Many suggested you to add other varieties of koi. I'd love to see you do that. However, mixing color would make it troublesome to keep the fish in the natural way as you did. If you let them spaw naturally, the offspring migh be ugly (that is the case in my pond).(You stil can pair the fishes artificially, inject some hormone into the female to stimulate her egg to mature and do the artificial breeding.)
Next time they breed ship me some the koi are beautiful
p.s.
the floating islands (chinampas) also provide shelter and protection for the fish from the flying predators....👏👏👏
12 koi’s including mama koi and papa koi
Just stopped by from your 2014 video when you first edged the pond. Its still looking good. Just wondering if any are the original 10? Just beginning the pond planning at our new property.
Another Great Video CARL Are all these Yamabuki?
thank you! yes they are ;-)
What water quality parameters are you after and have you ever experienced water quality violations? Thanks.
You should give an other update on the koi
