[@CatchEmAllFishingZakCatchEm]

i appreciate that, i've raised these little guys from just out of the egg, some of the koi and goldfish even hatched with me... my beautiful pets didn't deserve this and i was literally building a larger enclosure for them with a planted system to help keep them alive if something like this happened while i was out of town during a hurricane altho i have several generators. this was by far my most worst mistake and there aren't enough tears for these babies. my heart is broken. thank you and everyone else i've seen with me along for the ride. i need an in-ground all natural pond to stop this from happening again. i need to make a change.

[@UntamedButter]

Super sad for your loss, however with the size of those koi alone, that pond was definitely too small for that many fish, so with a pump going out, the pond in direct sun. Along with that many large fish. The PH, Ammonia and Nitrate levels were bound to sky rocket and cause a disaster like this.

Idk about days but most definitely more than just 10 hrs like he said.

[@MartinFireExotics]

@@danielmarkle8823 who knows how long for sure, in cold water fish can take more then 8 days before they start to float but since it was so hot I'd say 2 days could do the job

That’s rough Zak. Sorry for the loss of your fish!

[@sinatra617]

Hey bro I know its a tough pill to swallow and you dont wanna even think about building something in that spot but this is what you do. Its what you love. Its also part of what your subs live to watch. Take some time off and come back and build it better then the one you just tore down. On another note I had the same thing happen to me about 15 years ago and what I did after probably saved me from doing it again. What I did was got a bell and when ever I would be taking plugs out of outlets when I was done I would ring the bell to signify that I am done and all the plugs are back in the outlets. It may sound stupid but after a few times you never forget the bell. It kept my fish safe until the day I backed it all up. Get yourself a bell and give it a try man. Keep your head up bro. We all make mistakes it part of being human.

and for all the people saying “aw well at least you didn’t hide it” there’s no way he could have! When things die people find out one way or another so he just jumped the gun so he doesn’t look bad, because that’s all Zakcatchem cares about is looking good for other people. He’s selfish and a terrible fish handler

Dang bro you should be on the fish more knowing it’s hot cause that’s a big waste of kois man you should get rid of all your fish

[@cap526]

Zak , Been here myself , but not the size and quantity of loss . Yes many factors cause loss . Best I can recommend is to have separate pump's hooked up to different outlets on separate circuits . Airation is key you know. Been able to save a few after the stress and bloating. You have to relieve the swelling you know and get water moving over the gills . I learned from my mistakes and have become more aware of what will prevent it. Invest in a small generator and a pump in case the power goes out ever . It's disheartening !

[@CatchEmAllFishingZakCatchEm]

Just my mistake man. I had everything set to create a new system with all my babies growing out. Just got tired cause I’m human and failed horribly. I’m moving because of this to a bigger property to avoid my human failure for my existing giants

i was 10 years old when yiu caught some of these fish now im almost 16 it really hurts how much time and effort you took to take care of them really breaks my heart

[@sueauth]

Sorry for late response. I just viewed your video tonight. I live in AZ where it usually 100 to 115 degrees every day in summer. I am in planning stage for a outdoor setup using a pool like you have. I bought a small ac unit for my shed and am going to pump my water into a kiddie pool in the very cold shed (i just installed insulation foam board to shed) then run it back out to the pond pool in summer time. I am hoping it might act as chiller for me. I also plan to install 2 or 3 solar air pumps outside for the pool/pond so even if i have power outage they have oxygen and if all is good its more free air. Im thinking of running a water pump on solar with the air pump too. Still planning that part out. BTW : Your pleco lived because in wild they dig into the river embankments and form a cave using their body slime to seal it up during the dry season. They stay there until the river fills back up again . I found that out researching because I once had my pleco jump out of tank I was on vacation. i found it dried out, body stuck to floor. I thought it was dead, i was using putty knife to scrape it off floor and its eyes moved. i put it back in the tank and it lived for about 2 weeks but eventually died. sorry this happened to you. Maybe some of my Arizona ideas for heat will help you in Florida.
