i have built a 5000ltr pond, bought and installed a pump (3000/h), a bio filter (3000/h),and have treated the water. i then bought 10 koi, 3 inch, after a week the pond became murky and 2 sadly died. ive tested the water and it was 7.0 ph. ive done ammonia tests and nitrate, but i haven't got a color chart to compare against, both tests came back quite yellow, is that bad?
in the past week, a further 2 have died. the pond still is murky, and i have not seen the koi eat once yet, despite the water temperature being ideal. are they starving to death, is the filtration adequate, are they scared of a new environment, ???
tomorrow i will be buying a new filter and pump in addition to the one i have and build a canopy over the pond to stop leaves from dropping in, will this help or scare the fish deeper into shock......?:bowdown:
