They are some bigguns, please get the right gear to handle them and please do not transport anymore koi in those tubs get some bags. You have got your work cut out now keeping your parameters in check now you are over stocked in such a new pond, good luck fellas👍
I'm sure the girl would cry even more if she understood the stress and struggle her fish are potentially about to go through. You should be setting an example for fish keeping not making click bait at the expense of the koi. Lovely pond and you could've done things far more sensibly. I hope they are alright in the end
Mick im curious as to why the fish were not bagged for moving, that should of been a given tbh.. tubs really are not the way to go, and guys PLEASE get a koi net and sock. large koi and carp will bleed from the gills when knocked about ie: TUBS but heal fairly quickly, lovely fish by the way, just trying to give some helpful pointers
Keeping Koi is a long learning process, even for me I learn every single day. The thing with making videos like this, is that there will be people out there who think what you are doing is right. Maybe not tomorrow but I think you will have some major problems with the tank and koi in the near future. Don’t get me wrong, Not here to hate but please do things right. And never transport koi again in plastic boxes plz 😅 ✌️
there are many people who purchase koi outside dealers .. is there a minimum set of checks to prevent the risk of adding parasites or bacterial infections into your own pond? Both with or without a quarentine setup. Not sure if you have ever done a video on this topic.
@@harvindersinghuppal2162 first you have to ask yourself where do I buy my koi? I only buy koi at a breeder of dealer. Second: always check the koi for parasites or other bacterial infections before you enter it to your quarantine pond. Third: always do multiple checks during the quarantine period, stress them to see if they have any potential bacteria or parasites and also for KHV. Last but not least: always check them again before entering the main pond and even after that. But there are so many ways to do it right and wrong…
@@TheKoiPartner my friend all I’m saying is don’t spread around hate if he decides to do something then that’s up to him if it didn’t work out then he can learn from his mistakes everyone makes them regardless on how experienced u are with koi
Hi guys, as you are well aware by now, your way over stocked and under filtered. Amonia is going to go sky hi so feed very very little. Koi can go 2 weeks with no food at all. Let the filters catch up. Also think about re-homing some of the plain ones. Good luck
I actually thought you had some rather nice fish there...glad to hear you moving stock out. In Japan they move Koi from the Mud ponds to winter housing very much like you guys did so lm not to shocked.....🤷♀️
Sadly I reckon you guna loose a few of these fish. You should introduce few fish at a time really. Especially if that are big. That’s a small pond too. I’d expect a few jumpers due to stress. Don’t rush it and enjoy the little ones grow would be my advice!
@@garethsykes8648 well I moved my fish three years ago, put them into a large container with the pond water, drove to my new house 5 mile away with a different pond I constructed, just put them straight in no problem, but as mentioned it was in the summer ( July ) I recently bought three more fish from an inside tank in a pet shop, so this time I let them float on the surface in the plastic bag for twenty minutes because an inside tank will be warmer then an outside tank.
Shocking ,, no acclimattion , no net , ponds only been up and running a short time , it's absolutely crazy that your adding that many fish at those sizes to a new setup. I really hope the poor fish will be ok
There is nothing stupid about this comment. Even if he was somehow able to keep the water quality at safe levels, koi are meant to grow anywhere between 24-52 inches. How do you think a total of 216-468 inches of koi would fit in a 1000 gallon pond? If all 9 of them somehow all reached their full size in this size pond, they will most likely feel very cramped in a pond that small.
@@amandadonegan2137 They really don't. Just because the superficial idea is marginally the same doesn't mean they are actually doing anything right, at all.
The fish looked fine to me the journey was twenty mins not hours 4 hands are better than two as they can be a handful that size so the comments about poor handling are unneeded to be fair it's a quick change ov location And as I've seen a few of his vids now I'm sure they were acclimated off camra. I'm from hemel and this man in one of his previous vids showed me the place I got my arowanas from good job lads
I would put a net over that pond, the fish may jump due to stress and water quality. That's a massive bioload on the new filter...if I were you I would trickle in/out water
No net? The heron will have all those out soon! That’s If the ammonia spike doesn’t kill them first tho! No acclimatisation, quarantine, or matured biological filtration, those fish aren’t going to do well at all..
The blood in the water was from the gills, you won’t see any external damage. The gill filaments sometimes rupture when the fish are stressed. It occurs more often in larger older fish when you move them👍🏼
Hiya fellas, you got alot of big fish going in there... It's gunna be interesting to see how your new filters cope with the sudden increase in waste. 🤔😉👍
Wow you have got so much to learn on koi keeping, first thing is how many fish you are putting into 1000gallon pond. Also I would get a net over that pond because soon or later your going to come out to the pond with fish on the floor. They will jump out 100% in time
You have a very nice pond and fish there you have. Mick but, you should have bagged up your fish and not put them into TUBS and, PLEASE get a koi net and sock. And they will bleed from the gills when knocked about IE ; TUBS to give you some help
The bleeding from the gills is from stress, basically the fish's blood pressure has shot up. Hardly surprising after what this complete numpty has put them thorough. If you are learning about koi, this is a great example of how to get everything wrong 👌
There are some lovely koi here ... probably about 15+ years old, the pond looks absolutely mint and i'm sure will provide lots of enjoyment and fingers crossed you get some good luck with them. There's lots of serious koi ethusiasts commenting on here... so i won't add to it .. you've already replied to some comments about moving some of the koi on to another pond.
250 gallons of water per koi my dude. Should be okay with extra filtration and oxygen but I’d recommend putting them in a bigger in ground pond or build a bigger set up
@MicksFishUk Hi thanks for the reply.., by more work, how do you mean? I have a relatively new set up which includes a waterfall , 3 oxygenating plants and have bought a 2 pipe/channel aerator. I'm currently feeding them good quality koi flakes and pellets twice per day. I am going to clean the filter once per month..
I’d look at trickling water and when not making sure theirs a water conditioner to bind them ammonia I hope you prove me wrong but I’d of done this gradually and a 1000 gallon pond is relatively small I have 800 gallons I keep Wakin n London’s in there a few koi which I grow for fun them move them on I’d test that water several times a day and definitely run a trickle system and reduce the stock I hope no fish are lost
Lovely pond guys, but I can’t tell you how many things you are doing wrong in this video. I’ve been keeping koi for 22 years now and have learned that when you get things wrong you learn the hard way and it’s usually an expensive lesson to learn. My advice to you would be to do more homework. Good luck in the future guys.
that koi you keep saying hurt itself ,DIDNT its a female koi that as not been caught hardly before probably never been netted from the day it entered the original pond , and large female koi a suseptable to bleeding from the gills due to stress
More money than sense, clickbate designed to attract attention, none of this is for the wellbeing of the Koi, nor any of your old stock, just dump them right in the water well done lads 👍
Well I wanted to get perspective on how cramped these fish can get when they’re big so I don’t do it unwittingly with my pond. Saw the thumbnail and was like yup, there’s some crowed fish. So there’s that, they make a good bad example.
Hows the filter coping with that load i would say slighty over but as you said things will be changed in videos good to see someone near by aswell keep it up
this was great to see three brothers just on a mission getting it done, the fish will be fine ignore the haters man, how can u quarantine 9 massive fish, whatever you do someone will always chat shit
You need to help your filter mature, which it isnt yet, get some filter bacteria in your bio side, then set up a declorinated trickle in/out system, test the water for Ammonia and Nitrite daily, I'm afraid that your pond is now overstocked and you will have some problems ahead, good luck with it all.
No hate I just think that you’re hurting the koi moving them in tubs (hence the blood) and grabbing them to Chuck into the tank, when they should be placed in using nets and should be transported in bags.
Great stuff, great seeing all family involved. But like our house. Koi can be hardy , an looking at them, soon be hand feeding 🤓 really enjoyed that . Proper buzz getting new fish
That fish in such a very every small bit of watter what the hell is 1000 gallon 6 months at the most and the first koi is going dead, some people really don't now how to keep fish, and koi are one of the most difficult fish!
Not too much blood I thought you was going to take the lid off and the fish was going to be beheaded So the bloke in the background was your brother I would’ve been so rude about him if I’d known he was miserable though has to be said next level coil’s though You do know people will be saying it’s cruel and that the tank ain’t big enough there’s always one you know it 🐳

15 minutes of how not to transport, acclimatise,stock,handle fish and stock a new pond 😔

No areation during transport, no acclicamtion, no quarantine. Your lucky they survived.

I won't mind one .
Awesome video.., Can you tell me where you got the see through glass container pond from? It just awesome!!! thanks...
Looks absolutely amazing beautiful fish should call the black one pingoo
I knew you were a local lad from the way you spoke. Last video you were down the road. This one you're in my home town. Madness
how do you clean fish poop? does filtering clean it or you have to do it manually

Where did you get the pond
EZ ponds mate
temp change from box to tank?
nice koi!!!! nice pond as well!!!
Is this above ground setup something that can purchased? If so can you give me the name of it, would like to look into it
some koi bleed from the gills when netted!, its not very common but nothing to worry about! and thats a giant white orfe you have with those koi lol

Or cow 🐄

Where skimmer this pool?.. i cant see
Stunning fish
Could I ask where you got the glass sheet from, and what dimensions yours is
This pond to me looks like about 10x10x3.5 ft. So I think it’s about 2500 gal, and not just a 1000 gal.
lower hte water level otherwise you will find them n the floor one of these days. been there.
Pond is looking amazing boys, I can imagine sitting out there of an evening with a few cans just watching the fish 👌
What air stone or machine that in middle of pond
5 koi was already enough for 1000gal.
