I have a pond with varios fish in there. Atm our goldfish are breeding like maniacs but it seems like our ghost Koi´s are eating the babies.

I dont suppose theres anything to do about this? They get fed enough so that shouldnt be it. Or is it?

its a easy meal for them isn't it. so it could be they get peckish and think "oh look a baby fish, easy target" *munch munch munch*

sorry to hear about it though. i dont know what you could do to stop it unless you move the fish apart and that would be a problem on its own.

I only got one pond so I cant seperate them I suppose its just nature and I suppose that some will make it through.

The gold fish produces what looks like hundres of babies but surely the Ghost Koi´s cant all eat those? Some must survive?

If theres nothing to do I guess I´ll just have to wait til next spring to see how many actually made it. Just never thought that fish was so barbaric

yeah there are some fish that just eat other fish. some should make it, it's survival of the fittest kinda thing. sorry i can't be more help, our fish got eaten by a herrin and we haven't got anymore.

hopefully someone else will be better help

Ive not got a pond but would a fishing net work? if you could catch them?

How do you mean?

put a fishing net in your pond and then catch the babies with a different net and put them the other one.
just an idea dont no if it would work

Problem is, where to put them? I only have one pond.

what shape is your pond? you may be able to put a divider in it if not dont worry goldfish have up to 2,000 babies at a time so its good in a way that they are getting eaten otherwise your pond will get very overcrowded if there isnt anywhere to put them although a lot of the young ones get killed by the weather

Its a quite big pond at about hm.... 10x15 metres. And 3 metres deep. Its not that easy to divide really.

I think I´ll just have to wait and see how many fish I end up with next spring.
