It depends how big your Koi is and how big the Catfish is. If the catfish can fit in the Koi's mouth than it will get eaten.

Can a koi fish live in the same tank as a catfish?

It depends on the catfish. if it is a small catfish ( 1-5 inches) sometimes the angelfish will try to eat it. if it is a medium sized catfish (6-9inches) you will be fine. BUT if you get a large catfish (10 inches and over) it will terrorize your angelfish by nipping at the angelfishes fins and if big enough will eat it. some of the catfish you can mix is a Cory catfish, Redtail catfish, upside down catfish and rubber lip catfish but that is all. Another thing is you should get the fish when they are young because angelfish are territorial. one last thing is that to mix the two fish you should get a tank 25 gallons or over or they will be too crammed and die even though 25 gallons is pretty large angelfish can grow up to 10 inches and all of the catfish that can mix can grow up to 7 inches

Can you put blue channel catfish in a pond with goldfish and koi?

No, unless you want the catfish to eat all your koi/goldfish--catfish grow fast and they will eat anything, including your other fish.I have Blue Channel Catfish from about 1 inch two years ago, now 14 inches mixed in with both large and baby Koi. The Catfish eats the Koi food and interacts with them like nothing. I have never lost a fish. I think the key is getting a catfish when they are young and they can adapt, they're mostly bottom feeders and won't harm your Koi based on my experience. Make sure they start small though.No! the catfish will eat your other fish.


Can koi guppy and catfish be in one aquarium safe?

Guppies are tiny tropical fish. Koi are very large cold water fish. You don't mention what species of catfish you mean, and there are hundreds. But simply from what I've pointed out you can see that they are incompatible. Only an idiot would try to do it.
