I woke up in the middle of the night to get some water.. went by tank to see that i left the lights on... And saw my 2 koi doing circles... u know how some fish do circles with each other as a sign of breeding. So what should i do? are they going to breed... they seems paired up... the smaller one always follow the bigger one on its side.
 
What size tank?
What are the tankmates?
What are your water parameters?
What are you feeding them?
Do you have more space for the fry?

More info would be helpful.

And yes, sounds like they have the hots for each other.

Although you do get *** fish.
 
yey! good on you!
yeah give us some more info..

any bumps on one of their gill plates? larger one perhaps?
any plants on the pond real or fake?

240g Read my sig. Its really bare... I need to know what they need for them to lay eggs.... What kind of plants can i add.. I would love to move them to the pond... which is still bare. But the Blue gills have killed a few koi inside the pond.

Im feeding them a mix of Koi food, Silver Cup Trout Chow, An Hikari pellets and wafers. They reall just eat anything thats fits in their mouth, Shrimp.. what ever i feel like or have round.

Space? I read that they are really messy fry. I should have space for them.
