Hi there- it's been quite awhile since I've posted. Mello is still just 5 inches long, if not 5.5 inches.
I've been recently pondering whether or not it's okay to move her to my existing outdoor pond... pondering, because it's literally a waterfall during the late afternoon and night. It's about 90 gallons, 2 feet deep, and is a quiet pond for most of the day... until the waterfall turns on at 5pm until 10pm. The waterfall is quite turbulent and makes a lot of spashing (water drops down from a 5 foot tall ledge), which would make any basking area useless during those hours. I'm thinking of stacking a pile of bricks above water level with a ramp leading up to it for basking. There are currently two 6 inch koi living in there.
Is this area suitable for my RED to live in? Would she be a danger to the koi? Feel free to bring up any other issues, if there are...
