    Good evening bro. I had this issue and later found out that the problem was the size of feed. They were already picking 2mm from where I bought them, but I gave them Skretting 1.8mm and they picked. When I changed to Skretting 2mm, they stopped eating. I brought blue crown and they picked. I later discovered that Skretting feeds are bigger in size. Their 1.8 is almost like 2mm and their 2mm are too big

      Am sure it's skretting essential not skretting

      No, they are all the Skretting Superior

      ​@@letusfarm0619so what I did was to continue the 1.8mm for a little while and then continued with the 2mm and they started eating. Try comparing them and you'll see the difference in sizes. It was actually my first time of using Skretting

      @powerododh skretting is actually smaller but skretting essential is bigger in size

    Hello sir this is unrelated to the video
    Your returning viewer
    When I was using aqualis with my juveniles the water in my trampoline pond used to be green
    So it finished when they turned 1 month so I had skretin and that’s what I have been feeding them since 26th of May or thereabout
    I noticed my pond water is now brown
    So I now change every 2 days
    Then my fish is dying but like 1 or 2 ever 2 days but that is not the issue now because I already watched a video u made of fish skin …
    My problem now is the brown color
    I heard the brown one doesn’t let oxygen through is that true and I noticed it smell more
    I changed my water yesterday night and already the color is brown this morning
    Is it something to worry about because I don’t want my dishes to be affected with lack of oxygen
    They are dying , I notice d body peels not peeling to reveal wound , when I see them dead
    But today I saw the one in the bigger pond swimming sluggishly and the body having patches of white .
    I watched ur video you said water change and not necessarily giving biotics
    So what should I do ???? As now d water I am changing is turning brown and not green
    Should I do that bitter leaf bath thing ??

      The thing is that water change to brown is not surprising but what causes it is if you pour feed on the water without the fishes picking them up they soak the water and change it to brown mostly on blue crown qns ths skin peel u notice is cos u overstocked your reduce the quantity of fishes in the pond feed as they eat and everything will be fine

    Good afternoon, Sir... pls I'm having trouble with my pond drainage... how do I manage the waste water. My land is not very big and there is no drainage system... I just pour the waste water directly into the ground (is this ok?)...

      Have you checked your water parameters like ph, nitrate, etc. You may also need to ask your supplier what kind of feed they used and switch to that. Just a suggestion and good luck.
