how to salt bath a koi

[@copelandkoi]

love the lillies

Keep an eye on the floss in your shower, I use it in my bakki river and it clogged up after 2/3 days and overflowed, I fitted an overflow pipe to prevent it happening again.

Hi mate oddly enough it happened yesterday it must be too fine a filter Was thinking of taking it out unless I check it daily 👍🏼👍🏼

[@DerbyKoi]

@@jiffsterkoi I clean mine daily, but as I say I fitted an over flow and connected it to the moving bed (like a bypass) so it never overflows 👍

[@progressivepondkeeping]

Nice one mate the floss should work a treat. I need to get a decent net , sock and blue bowl tbh 👍

[@jiffsterkoi]

Cheers mate Everything is so expensive in this hobby that’s the problem pal 👍🏼👍🏼

[@progressivepondkeeping]

You've got nice lilies going on there. Poor bekko hope he starts feeling better soon. When you catch him (good luck) look in his mouth and gills. What do you keep your KH at?

[@jiffsterkoi]

Thanks mate I keep my KH between 3-6 drops before it changes back colour I am adding bi carb every week What about yours?

[@KoiRun50]

4-5 drops but I dont need to add bicarb.

[@sveinklippen2485]

I feel it's looking better now bud...keep up the good work. Just been salt bathing a few of my own koi and they are looking and behaving better after it..hope you feel the same . 👍👍👍

[@jiffsterkoi]

Yes the two I managed to salt bath are much more lively , great advise to salt bath 👍🏼

[@martincsreefandkoi]

Sometimes fish get internal problems and can starve themselves to death happened to me with a fish last summer. I would keep trying to salt bath it if you can catch it.

[@jiffsterkoi]

Hi mate yes going to keep trying I don’t want to loose him 👍🏼👍🏼

[@tommiller8943]
