Probably get a few fry out of this batch, my friends goldfish always raid the sunfish nest when the sunnies spawn, but there's generally still a dozen or more fry that make it to maturity
I’m hoping so. Besides the rock around the edges the pond doesn’t have any cover for fry. So if I see any wigglers over the next week I’ll pull some to raise. I miss having fry to care for and watch grow. And I’ve never raise Goldie fry so I’m hopeful!
They have been at it for hours. There are thousands of eggs everywhere.
Some pics
I’ve been thinking about it. I have the space right now to do it. I just need to move the pleco into a different tank.
My husband got me a new net, so I decided to give it a try today. I only took out a couple. These two have been looking really nice this year. Their color, the orange darkening mostly, has been making me happy. 
This next picture is a little distorted from the water, but you can see the color better.

Hi Utsuri and Tancho. Good job!
Glad he didn't get you a new spear gun to practice with.

Thank you. I think for cheap pond grade koi they have been turning out well. Haha XD
Thanks! The tancho came out of no where. He looked more like a bekko as a little 2 incher. The sumi went jet black and really took over. Then that tancho spot popped up last year. It was a light orange and has gotten darker since.
I’m not great with koi names, and I can’t pin point what he would be called. Tancho sanke or tancho showa? Leaning toward Showa because sumi is rising on his head.
Opinions?
I would say he's heading towards Showa
Haha XD
