I have two koi fish in a 29 gallon tank with a 50 gallon filter. I have a pond outside that i can put them in when it gets too big. i know you can tame koi to eat from your hand or even let you stroke them but how do you do it? I can put a pellet in the water with my finger on it, so the surface rpessure keeps it there and one will eat it after a few minutes then quickly swim away. But the other won’t. the one that comes to me is around 3.5 inches and the other is 4.5 inches. Can someone help?
P.S. Are there any special treats that they love that might intice them to come?

I want to buy some koi fish (any colour) but I don’t know how much they cost. Does the price depend on the size of the fish? If so, how much would a small one cost? A big one?
