Fish Playing
---------------------------------
Koi fish must be at least 3 to 4 years old and of sufficient size before they breed. Koi require special water conditions and environment for breeding. This is maybe the most time consuming part of keeping healthy Koi.
The eggs and baby Koi will need to be separated from the adult Koi or they will be eaten. Once eggs are laid, the baby Koi hatch in about 3 to 7 days depending on the weather. The survival rate for baby Koi is less than 50%.
Spawning will take place in the spring, after a colder winter, about the time when the water reaches temperatures of sixty degrees or more. They will attach the eggs to plant matter, or nest-like material. Some Koi enthusiasts have come to recommend a new rag mop head in for this use.
The consensus is that hatching in early summer (such as May or June) is best, because then the young hatchlings have time to grow and become used to their environment before winter comes to affect them.
