Hi, I am a bit confused, are Koi and Goldfish the same thing? I
understand that they are both carp, but could I breed a goldfish with a
koi? Thanx.


Koi get much larger and do much better in a pond than aquarium.
Goldfish can be kept in either. Koi are too expensive so I don't keep
them. Instead I restock with goldfish once a year and let the herons
do whatever. Some of the goldfish reach 10" in length. Not sure if
the two can breed.
