koi dancing

Early this morning after first light I was startled when one then two then three fish jumped straight up exposing half of their bodies. Then they just swam slowly in a line around the pond as though nothing had just happened.

The koi are 2 to 3 years old (20 to 22" long) and females. Our water temps are 50 degrees for winter. The water perameters were tested and found normal. No visual signs of loose gills or skin irretations. The Shiro is turning a little off white with red veins due to winter conditions. O2 is always max with floor drain aerators, three foot waterfall and twin four tray bakki showers with 200kg of BH media. Also the water in the 8300 gallon pond is turned over every twenty minuetes.

I will continue to watch but do not think anything is wrong.
