Aquatic Koi I'm gonna get to have Koi! |
Posted: 13 Feb 2020 06:13 PM PST Eventually. It's gonna be a fully do it myself thing, starting with digging a hole in the ground. College Park, MD, USA, and this is at least 6 months off if not more. So...what are some know good resources so I can read up? I had goldfish in an aquarium for years til my ex husband and I split. I couldn't take them with me, and he didn't take care of them. :( I don't know anything about koi ponds yet, and googling led me to lots of info that often disagreed with other info. So, what should I read? I've heard it needs to be 6 feet deep to keep from freezing and keep the fish safe from predators? If you were moving into a house you planned to live in for the rest of your life, and designing your dream koi pond, but it had to be DIY and as inexpensive as possible, what would you do?

Koi Feeding in Florida During Winter Posted: 13 Feb 2020 05:41 AM PST When I moved to my current home, I found a Koi pond in the backyard that apparently the seller (the son of the owner who passed away) did not know about and I have been on a crash course on caring for Koi since moving in. I am actually amazed that they were alive months after the owner passed away and subsequently the house was put up for sale. I understand that below a certain temp 48 degrees fahrenheit iirc I should stop feeding but here in Central Florida winter time, it can drop to 48 overnight and then climb into the 70s or even the 80s during the day, how am I supposed to handle that? Should I feed after the temp has risen for the day or should I wait till the temp does not drop at all and maintains a more constant temp? Probably a silly question, but honestly not sure which is the better approach. The Koi seem hungry even when it is cold (well cold for a Floridian anyways), but at the same time I do not want to harm them. I have been waiting till it warms up usually midday to feed and I only throw in a little bit about 2-3 pieces per fish and they eat it up quick. [link] [comments] |
