    Who said Koi don`t have teeth?.

    Whilst sitting by the pond last night using my iPad,i accidentally dropped my Apple pencil,the top flew off & being dark,i couldn`t find it.Come daylight,i spotted it on the bottom of the pond.After getting it out,it looked as though one of them had tried to eat it!.

    theres always a few in my drum filter, the suction from the bottom drain is strong enough to pull them through, but then they drop to the bottom on the dirty side of the drum.

    Just counted 13 teeth in the bottom of my fancy goldfish tank!

    The syphon isn't strong enough to suck them out so I let them build up until I can make a pile and scoop them out in one go!
