My koi love them! Whenever I find slugs, earthworms or snails I just toss
them into the pond.

Is there a reason why you felt the need post this message twice? This kind
of spamming will not be tolerated, no matter what your justification may be.

That is not considered spamming..its just plain unadulterated wanna be
a central focal point without any regards to others, as she thinks she
owns this forum.......but Jabriol owns her!

I think Carol has lost track to what she's replied while maintaining all
her "identities" during this posting frenzy. It makes no sense to any
rational being, but I'm sure there's some whacked out excuse in Carol's
garbled brain.

Coming from a lying hypocrite, your cut and paste whining means nothing,
Carol.

Our koi aren't anywhere near big enough to eat these things!

========================
Then just get rid of them. They wont, and can't harm the fish or pond in
any way. They shouldn't be left to rot in the skimmer.

One inch or so slugs are very popular with our Koi. They cannot survive in
water (I believe) so perhaps they fell in from some of your plantings. They
are no good for plants of course.

===========================
Koi also love those brown-headed fat white grubs that thrive in compost
piles. My koi gorge on them in the spring when I spread the compost over
the flower beds. I toss the grubs in an empty coffee can, then into the
ponds.
