PLECOSOMUS in koigoldfish pond

BabsZ Jun 10, 2008 01:22 PM

I have heard several people talking about putting PLECOSOMUS in a pond. Seems fine because they are a dosile fish and grow to be pretty large. Since I have added a couple of thse to my 600 gal pond I have been hearing talk that its not such a good idea. I have noticed my koi are staying in my beach area and the goldfish mostly hide in a corner or inside a pot. Usually all these fish are in a cluster. Could it be, I have brought in a monster? If this is the case, I want to get it out of my pond, how do I do this since its nocturnal. I have only seen it once since I put it in. And then WHAT TO DO WITH THE MONSTER? I now fear for my koi and comets.

Thank You

I've heard if you go out at night with a strong flashlight you can find the P Monster by the glow of his eyes.
