Spawning Koi

Hi There,
I am trying to spawn some koi in a seperate tank and they have had 1500d
days. Temp 21degres. Despite all my efforts have you any tips on how to get them going? Is there a magic fairy dust that turns them on? I
only want to breed them for my own use not to go into production!!!! Niceshowa
