Bought a house with a small 1500 gallon pond and about 10 mature Koi. When we bought the house the owner stated that he would like to keep the fish(ok) and asked us to give him 3 months to get his fish(no contract). He showed up during those first few months and took care of the pond and backwashed the filter etc. Then he disappeared. I was left with no knowledge, the pond got overtaken with algae and i hired a company to save the fish, clean it out and teach me how to maintain. It's been 18 months and now he showed up out of the blue to collect his fish. Since this time my kids have grown connected to the fish and we spent $ on food and electric to run the pump and aerator. I feel conflicted. I want to give him his fish and start over but it's been so long that I feel they are entitled to stay in this pond. What would you do?
Your fish in my opinion. No reason to feel conflicted. He abandoned them. He may do it again?
