    Help needed!/ has this happened to you?

    Hey I'm sorry about what happened with the first one. Sometimes fish seemingly go belly-up for no good reason. As far as the second one, koi are known to sometimes get a little jumpy when they get stressed, and I have firsthand experience of this. I raise my koi to a decent size in my aquarium...

    Moving fish from Tank to Pond

    So I have my pond up and running and am wanting to introduce some fish to it. There's already 10 goldfish that stayed in the pond over the winter, but I have 2 more in an aquarium that haven't yet been in the pond. Generally when I introduce fish to the pond, I wait until there's very little...

    First time stocking a pond

    Okay thanks for the reply :) It's 3 comets, 2 sarasa comets, a shubunkin, and 2 butterfly koi. My size estimates are a little on the low side just to be safe.

    First time stocking a pond

    Hey all, This coming summer is going to be my first summer with fish in the pond and I just have a few questions. First, what month should I wait until to put them outside? I live in central Alberta so I definitely don't get as warm of a spring as a lot of the mid to southern States. I don't...

    First time ever in a forum!

    Hey all, Brand spankin' new member here! I'm fairly new to the world of fish-keeping and often look up advice on forums because they tend to have the best tips and tricks. I've had my tank running for a few months now and although there have been many frustrations and tribulations, I'm loving...
