@@harvindersinghuppal2162 first you have to ask yourself where do I buy my koi? I only buy koi at a breeder of dealer. Second: always check the koi for parasites or other bacterial infections before you enter it to your quarantine pond. Third: always do multiple checks during the quarantine period, stress them to see if they have any potential bacteria or parasites and also for KHV. Last but not least: always check them again before entering the main pond and even after that. But there are so many ways to do it right and wrong…

How do you think a total of 216-468 inches of koi would fit in a 1000 gallon pond? If all 9 of them somehow all reached their full size in this size pond, they will most likely feel very cramped in a pond that small.
