| steve,
you can't stop stop them once the action starts. Oh well, you can by moving all the male back to the old pond. Don't move the female back as they will spawn regardless of where and what.
female spawns when there is significant environmental change, like major water chance, moving, weather change or introduction of new koi. There are many factors that I don't know.
besides injury, you need to keep an eye on ammonia level. My koi spawned this year, big time spawn. Now all of my better koi are all ruined. No more show this year.
