      So i take it Wakins would be just fine in a koi pond ? How are they at handling the same winter over conditions ?

      Like in my case an indoor pond is not feasable.

      I really liked the pics I saw of a few pond here with a large school of these, would make a nice addition to the 4 or 5 koi I was planning for my pond.

      (my pond= 13' x13' x 6', 1000 gallon settlement chamber and DIY filters and trickle tower.)
