Water quality have we got it all wrong?

Post by Brek »

Was at leeds armories on Wednesday and just happened to look in the water in the marina next to it and couldn't quite believe my eyes, it was at least 2 foot in length.

Hello ...only just read this :(
He doesnt look happy at all ..usually when they are like this with their backs out of water it's lack of D.O..
I get calls for allsorts of places to rescue fish from ..some nice, some not so nice.
But.. no i think we have it right with the water quality .. much nicer for us too :D

first off all it doesnt need ''rescuing'' koi are the same as natural carp apart from them have fancy colors they are happy in muddy water feeding on naturals in weed, if they weren't you would get fish to over 30lb in canals.
