The Black Koi (Cyprinus carpio carpio) is sometimes called a Koi or a Carp. It belongs to the family named Cyprinidae. Typically reaching a max size of about 44.0 inches in length, the Black Koi is passive in nature and hardy in stamina. It's more active during the daytime and less at night, and will hang out across the entire tank. According to FishDB current data, captive breeding success is good after pairing up and there are no external signs of sexual differences. Cyprinus carpio carpio should not be housed in a tank less than 1000+ gallons in size. Tank parameters should be maintained with ph level between 6.8 - 7.2, temperature between 36 - 90 degrees fahrenheit, Some of the environmental concerns that you should strive to replicate in your home aquaria to promote succesful acclimation include pond environment.
