Dear Ponders, I just put my goldies back outside in the pond and they couldn't be happier. Now I just have to figure out where to setup the stock tank pond for...
We're newbies to the koi world. I just noticed that the inside of the lower mouth to one of our koi is pinkish red, a little bigger than a quarter. I just...
We took the koi out of the water to examine his mouth. We were shocked to see that the tissue in his mouth was eaten away. We looked in one of our books and...
I don't know if koi can recover in a mouth rot I got one before did'nt grow back. Fatal falls depend on size the bigger the heavier and stronger tiny ones...
Hi JT. I sent you an e-mail a little while ago but I think I hit the wrong button and lost it all. Anyway, the best thing to do is to make a one third water...
Yes, my husband has been very good about maintaining good water conditions. We did quarantine the koi and finished the two day oral antibiotic gel treatment....
Is the water change enough or should we add something to the water so the rest of the koi don't get it? Thanks JT ... the mouth was never the same. ... heavier...
Yes, Baytril is an antibiotic and works very well to heal ulcers and other infections our Koi and Goldfish may get. Yours Koily, Lorraine ... From: jctanaka ...
I would just keep up on the water changes and make sure that your biological filter is large enough not only for the size of the pond but the amount of fish...
Good day all! I took the liberty of adding a folder with some pictures of my fish and pond. We recently added a bit of a stream feature around the side. It...

Curtis, I sure don't know how you managed to keep your koi alive in the same pond as Largemonth bass. The main food source for bass is other fish and animals....
Have you tried treating the sick koi with Melefix? Melefix is very good to use when the koi have open sores or ulcers. I think it would help your koi quite a...
Problem with any other fish in with the koi is if you ever need to treat the fish for parasites (which can come in on other fish) some of the treatments used...
Goodness, it's nice to have you back, Don. These prolonged absences leave me with no resident expert to bounce my problems around with, and this winter we had...
Just to weigh in here, Melafix gel is available in certain states, but up here in Quebec (Canada) pet stores are unable to sell it - it's against the law. But...
I'm thinking about enlarging my pond, can I lower the water level and attached new liner to old liner with silicone. My idea is to have a passage way between...
... I extended my pond without draining down the existing pond. The idea of a swim way between ponds works but because of climate I made a box from 11/2"...
Silicone will not stick to pond liner at all. It is rather difficult to splice liner when it is clean and laying on a flat surface, special tape, special...
Silicone might work but liner tape would be stronger and easier. Either way make sure your liner is perfectly clean and dry. How old is the orginal liner and...
There is a good way to do this, not sure about cost though. There are now a couple of different brands of "Spray on Liner", this is a liquid spray or paint on...
