I don't recall a thread about selling baby GF as being koi?!?! I do see a

Well then, wouldn't you say you don't have a problem because you don't
have
GF & koi together?


At one time they were together as you must surely remember.

That's what where this thread kind of headed, with a
question about mixing fish. Nothing about selling hybrids.


I see.


When my GF were in the ponds with the koi they both
spawned with their own kind. I saw no cross-breeding.


Interesting and very unusual, imho.


Perhaps but that's what we observed.


Mine didn't. Once the water became warm all GF breeding ceased. The koi
bred on into the summer.


Interesting, and again very unusual from both my experience, others I've
talked with and stuff I've read. ~ jan


Yes, interesting indeed. Should I assume they all have my pond conditions
and live in my geographical area?
