I had to immediately take them out and put them in a container and prep an aquarium for them. I think I went out that day to buy an aquarium specifically for them. lol! I had never heard of aggressive koi but okay, whatever... Maybe they're too juvenile to know.

Fast forward much later into the future (like half a year) and I need to put a gold fish in timeout for being too aggressive. I decided to put it with the koi. The koi seemed to treat the gold fish with kindness. Hours later, nothing - they were happy and weren't attacking each other. Good I thought! Then I went to bed.

I woke up and noticed all the koi were eating the fins off of the dead gold fish. My prized gold fish, beauiful fan-tailed oranda was dead. I don't know how it died because there were no puncture wounds or anything, they were just eating the fins. The water is about the same as it is in both tanks since they share the water so shock shouldn't have happened especially since the temperature was about the same. Did the gold fish get chased until it died of a heart attack? I don't know and there's no way to know.

RIP nameless goldfish. You were the prettiest. Now you're burried in the garden to give nutrients to the plants. Hope in your next life you can be reborn as a cat and get your revenge. jk

Anyway -- If these koi are aggressive, I might get rid of them. They shouldn't be but I did buy them at a petsmart soooo you never know how they were treated. They eat like royalty and I mean it, I get the good expensive food. Not the best kind but mid-tier at least since best would cost as much as a human to eat lol

How do you guys think my fish died? Take a guess, any guess!
