Hello everyone,
I have a very large koi pond and I'm looking at getting some catfish to add some variety. Before I get anything though I'm worried about a few things:
Firstly will they do well in Minnesota (zone 4).
Secondly will they bother the koi in any way.
Thirdly will they breed to quickly and become a problem.
My question is, what species would you recommend in this situation and does anyone have and experience with keeping catfish with koi. So far I've considered a Wels catfish or flathead.
P.S If anyone has any cool non catfish recommendations I'd love to hear them.
