Question

How do we know if the koi fish is about to breed & what do we do?

Answer 1

When they put on their smoking jacket, apply their cologne, dim the lights and play some Luther Vandross...then you know it's time.

Answer 2

Look for female koi to become bloated when they're carrying eggs. Add a similar-sized male koi to the pond at this point.

the males chase the females but will rarely chase males but it happens. only breed them in ponds. the male will start to rub himself on the female with his head
