The pond only measures 4'X6'X2.5' and is in full sun with the plants not
offering much shade at all yet.

What is the water temperature? He may be looking for cooler more oxygen
rich water.

The pond with the large fish is probably 3
times that surface area and in full shade. Do you think a large fish
would cope with that transfer? I'm about as fish ignorant as they come.

There are thousands of pages of information on pond fish on the Internet.
:-) I would move him to the shady pond.
