They are all settled in and doing good. After I took the pictures I added the
pond filter to help with the water, I'm ordering sponge filters to help with the bioload and I am cutting down on the feedings until the water is a OK  ;) I do like to feed them, my goal is to get them to eat out of my hand, maybe one day  :)
Here's a few pictures, I have more in my gallery.

So glad it's all come togeather for you. I guess you learned much this season? ;) Goldfish can be healthier underfeed... true story! Heres a link about Goldfish Feeding. Hope it helps you & your Goldies... :) Great pictures they look happy... :)

They look like happy healthy fish!  How big is that large orange koi?  It's nice to see them all swimming around the middle.  For some reason, my koi are both chickens and like to hide behind the filter.  I added the goldfish to try to coax them out and it worked for a week, but now all 5 of them hide behind the filter!  Arg.  Hopefully with time they'll all swim around the tank like yours do.

The orange Koi is around 8 or 9 " he' s the Big Kahuna  ;D My koi's were very fearfull when they were outside in the pond. Now they are getting used to us, they can't really go hide anywhere  ;D ;D. If we approach to fast they go a bit crazy. When I took the pictures I had been there for a while and wasn't to close so they were pretty relaxed. I'm still very far from hand feeding them, I don't know how people achieve this  ???.
They all grew a lot during the summer the orange one was about 6" and the others were 3 " when I bought them, they are now like 4/5". I did feed them pretty good outside  ;D I just like feeding them  ::)  But I know, I have to slow down and they won't starve and if I'm good and listen to this my water will stay a good quality  :)

Thanks, th eone I prefer is the smallest with the black it just makes him so unique  :) There's one that has a white spot on the nose! They just get along so well with the Koi's. If the big orange Koi gets scared they all follow him even the goldfish  ;D  One big happy family ;)
