Default Koi not eating

This is disheartening... This is what I have, a 8'x6'x2.5'(D) pond. And I
have a biofilter. Will this keep the kois living? Otherwise, when they grow
too big, I may have to give them away.

The koi are just getting used to the new pond. The pond is too small for

koi.
You need 1000 gallons for the first koi and then over 100 gallons for

each
other one.....so for your 2 kooi you need at least 1100 gallons. Koi also

need
some areas of the pond that are at least 3 feet deep . They will do fine

now,
and when they grow larger they will die because of the water quality the

small
pond will have. Sorry Jerri
