wow congrats!! I've had a pond for several years now and we gave up on koi. We've lost so many to flying critters and raccoon it just wasn't worth it. After seeing a Raccoon dine on a $25 koi I said no more and now we only do gold fish lol Wish I had your luck with Koi. Congrats again! I'm jealous lol

I had to buy the 'cat scat' it is an ultrasonic repeller. I lost quit a few koi to the raccoons, I got it a couple of years ago and I haven't lost any since then. I don't have the big birds thankfully.
