How long does it take koi eggs to hatch?

I found a British site that said 3-7 days. Does that match anyone's data?

Turns out to be right! Eggs on the mat. Moved them to our new 400 gal
berm veggie filter.

Does anyone know how long it takes them to hatch?

TIA

Temperature dependent, seem mine averaged 4 days when water temps were
70ish. ~ jan

Here's a good link on spawning Koi:

Jim and Phyllis,

It is all temperature dependent as has been stated here. The warmer the
water the faster they hatch. If the water is too cool or too hot anomalies
can occur.

68 to 72 degrees is the best range with hatching in about 4 days, give or
take depending on the range.

We had two nights drop into the low 30s here and about 1/3 of the koi fry
died. The rest look ok.

Reel McKoi,

Fry are very susceptible to temperature variations and they usually don't
stand very low temperatures.

There was no way to keep those 1/2 barrels warm so I moved all the fry to
two 150 gallon kiddy pools behind the house this afternoon. I added plants
and a lot of greenwater from an old plant propagantion pool (which contains
water fleas). The pools hold a steady temperature a lot better than the
barrels. Most of the fry are at a strange size/age now - too big for egg
yolk and egglayer fines but too small for finger crushed flakes. I hope at
least some survive.
