[@DerbyKoi]

I love watching new pond builds, probably coz it's not me doing it 😬. Keep up the good work mate. I keep both Israeli and Japanese with no issues 👍

[@keepingitkoi]

Good update mate I feel the pain glad mine was all soil to 4ft deep then hit clay that's when the shovel and tools went away when I do my rebuild in spring out the ground it's coming 👍👍

[@keepingitkoi]

I hope yours goes easier than mine is theres a big problem to come that you'll see in my next video 😔

[@jolleykoi5970]

Great update on the pond build👍🏻. I would be intrested in the bags of pebbles if you lived a little closer. If the problem is fish are dying due to heat it could be KHV and in that case yes it would advised to cull the lot which is very sad news. I have both japenese and israeli koi in my pond with no problems at all. Most dealers should heat ramp to check but some dont and it is very sad news because of the knock on effect. Anyway enough of the doom and gloom, i cant wait for the next update on the pond build 👌🏻👍🏻. All the best, Tel 😊🙏🏻😊

[@keepingitkoi]

Cheers Tel yeh it is a big shame but its definitely not khv as it would have wiped out every single one if it was plus the first to all die was the vaccinated ones from Israel which if it was wouldn't of happened 👍 but yeh the next few updates are going to be an interesting watch 👍

Jamie mate I had to euthanase 4 ponds worth of koi about 9-years or so ago because of KHV from taking a friend's fish in that I later found out was an Israeli koi and now refuse to have anything to with them 👍👍👍 Of you do decide to empty that pond in the patio you can always make me an offer on the contents of the front pond 😉😉😉

[@keepingitkoi]

Yeh its sad times it that respect but im gunna give em till the new year as ive just ordered a better heater for the small vat and see if that helps and yeh 60 koi lost to what ever it was so wont be doing it again, but i do decide to do that i may well take you up on that offer 👍

[@LeTwistedOne]

[@jiggsmountainviewkoipond]

Nightmare that clay mate had a few digs in the past like that 😫

[@keepingitkoi]

Yeh it dont make it easy but to be honest i would prefer the clay over the pebbles in the next video i go even deeper and it gets worse 😅

[@jiggsmountainviewkoipond]

@@keepingitkoi awe never lol well I look forward to the next upload 👍

[@TarkovFLIR]

When does a pebble become a stone, when does a stone become a rock??

[@keepingitkoi]
