If you really want koi babies, toss a couple of water hyacinths in during
spawning time and pull them out after the deed is done, put some place
separate (the veggie filter?) to grow out. Once you have baby koi in the
veggie filter you won't need gambusia, perhaps a mosquito dunk prior to
spawning would do? ~ jan
