The first of April, I put two 3" black koi in my pond. They instantly
disappeared (black fish/black bottom) and I have not seen them since (except
the one I nearly killed in the skimmer net 3 days later). I've not seen
either of them since *that* incident. Now, consider that I have Moby Dick (3
of 'em!) in the pond (if you're a little 3-incher), but my fish are very
friendly and non-aggressive. There's plenty of algae to eat so they won't
starve. And they haven't floated to the surface. I don't know where they
went, either. One of these days . . .

its not worth fixing
