Hopefully you get it sorted out. It can be so difficult to get on top of a problem when you can’t figure out what’s causing it. I’ve been dealing with bacterial issues for months now and just can’t seem to get it under control. I’ve lost 16 koi over the last 3 months and still have several koi with ulcers which will probably die too. It’s so frustrating and gutting at the same time. Keep us posted on your progress

Great video. You’ve earned my subscription

Hi Ken, pp treatments 3 days running worked for me but it was an infestation . Don't use hydrogen peroxide though or the following treatment won't be effective. I have been battling fish flicking and flashing constantly since early summer and was unable to find a reason. I recently started using complete pond detox and after a couple of days I've no more flashing. Not sure if it's available in Ireland. But it may be worth a try...... I can only presume my source water has changed.

Just subbed, chin up things will be sorted. Good luck mate

Yikes! I suppose you get what you pay for, it's a class set up, so it stands to reason parts would be expensive. It's still a shame though, you're having a rough run this past while, had something similar parasite wise this season, so I know how it feels! Hopefully, we've both turned the corner!!!

Sorry to hear about your troubles Ken, hopefully, the filter will be an easy fix👍

Crystal bio in them Roto Showers great stuff.......... Nice video fella.

Nice upload, enjoy that!

Excellent!!

Ken, any chance of the details of your auto feeder?

👍👍

Fish and pond looking Beautiful. I just turn my trickle in up.

I have problems with the parasites 🦠 in my pond fluke chelodenia white spot and costia It was a nightmare I understand you so frustrating mate Now finally I’m enjoying my pond 🥲🎏🎏🎏

Fish looking very healthy mate. Lilies looking Beautiful. Do you run a trickle in?

Maybe pp day 1 pp day 2 then fluke medicine ?

I was told before if flukes are stubborn, do a full system clean, leave them no where to hide, do a pp treatment to reduce slime and expose them better and then use your fluke treatment, isn't it terrible how ineffective treatments are, and how expensive they are/ how much time they waste when your in need of a fix!!!!

Thanks for the comments everyone. I only had enough for one 110% Lernex treatment (allowed for drum rinsing and low trickle in). I'll scrape during the week and see if it did the trick. If not, back to the drawing board and I'll consider the options below. All I have currently is Flubenol which wasn't much use as my first course of treatment.

I've tried all the fluke treatments and the only one that has fully worked and didn't require further action was what quality nishikigoi posted in one of his videos. Absolute Parasite + at 25% overdose . Not had any problems this year after treating in late April. I tried to find the video but cannot find it sorry.

Have you tried full dose day 1 half dose day 2 half dose day three?

Are the flukes hiding in your Rota shower?

I did the standard Lernex. 100% day one,50% day 2,3. Seven days later, 100% day one, 50% day 2,3.

Hope,your over it. All The Best!

👍👍

Sorry to hear about your problems 😔 hope you get them sorted soon 👍 Subscribed to your channel ⛩🐟⛩

Salt dips might be worth considering, if a possibility.

You've done the right thing in removing it. When they're poorly like that, they can become an incubus of parasites for the other fish. They just seem to be the source of everything. Even worse if you add bacterial issues to the mix.

I've had success with PP dips mate. Especially good for ulcers. Touch n go it looks atm for that koi tho

I feel for you. iv'e never had any joy with fmg but found alparex works great. I think you need a kh of 7 or above though. best checking if you decide to go down this route. either way hope you get them sorted

Looking good there buddy 💯👌🧁👍👍👍

nice update keep them coming

Would love to see the filter system running

Great video

i was told to pp plastic media before use as it strips the plastic back, goes brown and helps friendly bacteria stick to it and colonise it better?

Brilliant information mate

Parasites are happening to everyone Ken, the joys of koi keeping I guess, I hope you get on top of it mate.

nice update keep them coming

nice update keep them coming

Good size choice of window.. The bigger the better..😁😉👍👍

Great update👍. I’m sure you’ll see a difference as the Helx13 starts to mature. Good to see you’ve got your electricity back, that storm disrupted a lot of things☹️. Looking forward to seeing what you think of the new media. Fingers crossed that your shoulder mends quickly, take care😊👍

Nice channel Ken, hope you are ok after your fall, and your shoulder is healing, I have just subbed you, very best wishes, Tony, Farmoor Koi😀

Hi, yep it’s that time of year again 😞 I just wondered what exactly were your Nitrite readings coming out at? Apologies if I missed this in the video, or a previous video Keep up the good vids 👍🏻

OMG😱!!! can’t believe you’ve had such an awful fall, you need to take it easy for a while. Hope you get your chlorine level sorted🤞. Look after yourself 😊👍

If you are thinking about changing your filter media I would highly recommend circa 65% Hel-x13 and 35% Oase pond pads, this combination has absolutely changed my nitrite readings. I have 80 litres of Helx13 and 40 litres of Oase pond pads. The Helx13 matures quicker than K1 (in my opinion) but the pond pads mature even quicker than the Helx13. As you already have a ton of what you have, I would suggest simply taking out a third and replace that third with pond pads……worth thinking about???. Hope this helps😊👍. I would also recommend Bacto Plus fresh PSB😊👍. Good luck👍

Nice 👌 I’m cover my pond next week 😎🎏🎏🎏

Hi Ken, is the spare media gone? I'm in Kildare.

Take screen of

Hi you shamfer edge seal drop in groove easily just fixed mine easy.

You will get a much stronger biofilm now, you have reduced the media. It will be getting more oxygen. With more media you need more oxygen and more food waste etc to work for you. In your case, less is more!

Dave from Coastal Koi said not to fill it and just put 9 kg in for the 36 inch big blue. Just done mine. I wondered what the smoke was coming out of mine, now I know it was the carbon dust lol.

Hi.Are you flow rates ok for the media? (Retention time)
