Default How many koi is too many koi

Koi are a version of carp. Matter of fact I believe "Koi" means carp. So
when you see or hear, "Koi Carp" that's really like saying, "Carp carp."

If you've fished for carp you know that they can live in the nastiest water
sorces out there. I bet they could live in pure poop. Carp are highly
invasive in america. Any rec pond owner with carp will tell you how they
destroy the pond by muddying the water.

OK, Take out the filtration factor and what is too much for koi?

The reason I ask is that I see so many different claims, and then I go
see a koi breeder and they have 20 big ones in 1000 gallons (30+
inches). And 50 or more in 750 gallon setups...
