People do not understand
Today I got a phone call from the friend who is caring for my Koi while my house move happened and the new pond was set up. She has had most of my Koi for a while now and this Thursday I was due to go and get them and bring them home. This morning I get a phone call to tell me my Yamabuki Ogon is de...

Re: Is There anyone near Leigh Lancs
Hi Mankey Sanke If there is someone who could help her it would be brilliant but I fear the worst to be honest. Her water readings are doing really well she has Ammonia down to 0.1 and Nitrite is between 0.2 and 0.3 so she has done really well but it just is not making sense why what looks like perf...

Re: Chloramine T & new additions
Hi Dave Well it's all sounding possitive :D I think when we had problems it appears that another sittuation is rearing its ugly head we ask ourselve's what now, but to be honest we forget our Koi have been through an ordeal, so this in turn raises their stress levels. I think when a pond has had tre...

Re: Safe interval for treating
Hi Duncan Yet again another thing learned, when I first started in this koi hobby of ours, and didnt have a clue about anything the so called fish doctor we employed told me never to use formalin only malachite as malachite was all I needed to kill anything in the pond. Which is where I believed thi...

Re: Chloramine T & new additions
Hi Dave Not forgetting Duncan & Gazza for all the help and support.[/quote] Not a truer word hs been spoken. We would all be worst off without having Gazza and Duncan there, but they can give as much help and advice as we ask for but some people ask but never act on the advice given. I dont thin...

Re: HOW LONG DOES MEDICATIONS LAST FOR
Hi Duncan Thank you for the reply, I remember a few years ago you had said that the sale by dates put on medications were not right and that as long as they were stored correctly they would be fine and still some. I have a fair few topical treatements and just wondered how long they were actually ok...
