Koi Corner / Catching Koi

« on: September 27, 2007, 11:51:09 AM »

Have had my KOI for 6 yrs.  Have never caught.  Please provide advice on best way.  I have read some.  Know to drain the pond down.  So afraid I will hurt them.  I know they are going to be scared to death.  9 Koi, four are about 18".

Koi Corner / River Water

« on: September 27, 2007, 11:48:59 AM »

We live near a small Tailwater River(feed by large lake).Mainly trout in the river. Would River Water (45 degree or so) be advisable to use to continuously trickle into the pond vs duing a water change? Just wondering your opinion on possible problems with introducing river water to pond. Thank you.
