Buying a new pet fish for your pond is so much fun! The Japanese call koi the "jewels of the pond," and they are so right.
When you pick out a new fish to bring home, remember that you're making an important investment for your pond. You want your new fish to be healthy and to live a long time.
Over our fifteen years of selling pond fish at Cool Ponds, we've developed a procedure of quarantining and inspecting fish well before they're available to you to purchase. You can rest easy knowing the fish you buy from Cool Ponds are safe and healthy!
You can buy goldfish from Cool Ponds.
You'll find a mix of goldfish sold at Cool Ponds -- sarassa, comet (usually orange but can also be brown like the one pictured), and shubunkin (the multi-colored fish pictured).
Goldfish live an average of 6- 8 years and can grow to a maxiumum of around 10".
Goldfish sold at Cool Ponds range in size from 5" to 10".
You can buy domestic koi from Cool Ponds.
Koi sold at Cool Ponds come in a wide range of colors, including white, yellow, and blue.
Koi are smarter than goldfish, and so are easier to train to eat from your hands. They also have a much longer life expectancy and can grow as long as 36"!
You can purchase a wide range of colors of koi from Cool Ponds. All koi are around 4-6" in length.
What to expect when buying fish.
At Cool Ponds, we sell fish exclusively from outdoor tanks (pictured) during the spring and summer months. We receive new shipments of fish every 1 - 2 weeks.
You won't be getting a "grab bag" assortment. When you pick out the fish you want, that's the one we net up for you!
Your new fish will be bagged in a plastic bag for the transport home, but please do not plan on traveling for more than 45 minutes. Battery-powered aerators can be purchased separately for travel times from 45 min to 90 min.
