One inch or so slugs are very popular with our Koi. They cannot survive
in water (I believe) so perhaps they fell in from some of your plantings.
They are no good for plants of course.

Koi also love those brown-headed fat white grubs that thrive in compost
piles. My koi gorge on them in the spring when I spread the compost over
the flower beds. I toss the grubs in an empty coffee can, then into the
ponds.
