Hi bro, kois are not aggressive. What kois are those u keeping?

Kois are not aggressive. But you cannot put them with slow moving fishes like goldfish etc.
Just Tooooo tempting for them to nibble at their fins, suck out their eyes etc.
I have kept other fast swimming fishes with them. Nice problem.

They are usuallynot aggressive, but always greedy for food. So, small fishes will be eaten when they're not careful, goldfishes will definitely be harassed and eyes and fins eaten also.

Koi are basically eating machines, anything that can fit into their mouths and looks 'delicious' to them, they will not spare a thought to gobble them up.
