Koi

The Koi fish is not really a goldfish, there a species of Carp, but they are related to goldfish.
The Koi is so amazing, but they need a 500 gallon pond that is 24 inches deep minimum to
live. The Koi is very smart and can grow very big anywhere for 24 to 36 inches is average,
but if cared for well in a big enough pond they can grow 3.5 feet. The Koi can hear underwater
very well and they get to know your face after awhile, so if you go near him after you had him a awhile your Koi will swim up to you and if you teach him to eat from your hand he will come
up to the surface and he will let you pet him. This pet is just like a dog, he will even kiss
you by sucking on your finger. This is a very expensive, but amazing pet to have. Here are
some facts on the Koi:
-Keep Kois in ponds that are no smaller than 500 gallons and has to be 24 inches deep minimum
-Keep an eye on Kois in spring because this is a very hard season for the fish
-Make sure you have other fish for the Koi to play with because it's such a sociable fish
-If cared for properly they can live 20-35 years and living even longer is not unheard of
-When you buy your filter don't use a pool filter because it's not as healthy for the fish and
your electricity bill will skyrocket because there only for use around 6 hours a day and you need
a 24/7 hour filter
