Try the egg rock over your lily pots. It should be too heavy for your fish to move. Also, I have seen where some people have put a coated wire mesh type of thing over their lily pots.

My understanding is the koi are after the clay in the waterlily soil and the plain cat litter. I too plant my waterlilies in pea gravel with the egg rock over the top. I don't really have a lot of issues with my koi uprooting my lilies.
