U would be surprised how hardy fish are not all but most i added salt to my pond bc i have velvet and ich and my fish were so sad and sick over couple of days I raised my salinity to near brackish it wasn’t brackish but getting close and for two weeks the fish return back to normal and the colors look way better with the salt added I did use marine salt for saltwater aquarium so maybe the extra minerals gave the fish color idk I’m no expert

Plz remove your plants salt will destroy them I didn’t have the experience but my neighbors was treating his pond with salt and killed his blue lotus man he was disappointed bc he just got it and waited for awhile to get them

Is that a channel cat?

Can you keep your pond at 0.3 all year

Time stamp 9.02 : You are constantly reading the Salt Meter wrongly! For example, it is not ".026". It is "O.26".

I was here 6/1/24

Can we be friends?

You are the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why don’t you just pure the salt into the pond directly and let it dissolve in the water

Why to make more easy to understand like 2kgs/1000litres !

How do you get rid of red algae on the rocks and pebbles? Also what causes it to grow on them?

Nice! Would this level of salinity have any effect on other parasites such as leeches?

At 6:17, Mr Pond guy gets a first reading on his salt meter- the meter displays 0.25%. Mr Pond guy specifically says- check the closed caption, .025. At 6:26 Mr pond Guy takes another reading, the METER displays .23-.24 , he says the meter displays .2, pauses and then specifically says three-two-four. He's indicating its fluctuating between .23 and .24 but says .2 , pauses THREE TWO FOUR. Am I the only person on the planet who sees/hears this? BE EXACTING/SPECIFIC FFS when dealing in decimal places. Some less astute person might add 10 x more or less salt because you say one thing but mean another.

Pond parasites are illegal aliens fishing without permission and lead works a lot better than salt in those situations.

Cute video 🙂🪿 I am a food critic. #foodie

With netting overhead to protect from raptors. Pond is a bit small for them, tho.

Thank you for the information. Have a koi with parasites (pink) looking for helpful ways to help him.

What type of salt do you used in pond.salt that we used everyday at home or another salt? Please tells i wanna know

Salt is definitely the way to go

Makes no sense. why not add at the waterfall away from the skimmers xD

Uh all turtles are aquatic

🔥

Will these affect large animals who drink regularly from ponds, like horses?

8×10 too small for those beautiful fish; also its concerning they are laying on the bottom they should be much more active.

nah. add the salt bag directly

Do you recommend using Microb-lift pbl to add beneficial bacteria to your pond when you start up your pond for Spring?

Shocking 'advice'. Salt may knock costia back at that level but it wont touch chilo. While people are following this advice their koi are dying. This is a short term bath treatment and NOT a full pond treatment as your description says. Getting all the salt out afterwards will take months. The correct treatment for costia and Chilo is formalin and malachite.

Thanks for the information. Going out to clean mine now!

once we salted the pond to kill the parasites, do we keep the maintenance lower level of salt year round for prevention??

🙌🙌

Thank you son for your post, this is awesome

I subscribed bc they are great at what they do and very informative.

My goldfish have anchors worms 😢 I have never seen anything like it in all my fish keeping years. What’s the best treatment as I have physically pulled these worm out of my fish and some are beneath the scales. I removed some scales and got the head of the worms out. I am tired and don’t know what else to do. I been chasing worms from their skin for 7 days. Any great advice would help! We have no fish vets in my area.

I have looks like healthy fish for a few years now but i cannot get my water clear. i have a bio filter/uv bulb and put umbrellas over pond for shade 2 waterfalls have put in recommended amounts of bacteria but it never clears up. it seems to be small green algae all through water, will salt kill this type of algae, so frustrated…suggestions please

Buen trabajo 👍

Will salt ever dissipate? We put salt in years ago.

Great instructional video, thanks for sharing. Can you please advise me on a certain type of salt to use. I have a large bucket of Red Sea Coral Pro salt from when I used to have a reef tank, could this salt be used in my pond? Thank you.

Im infested with chilodonella ive tried malachite green and fomalin did not work so now im using salt at 9 percent i have a bog that filters my pond ive tried bleaching it i ve tried everything please help

Treating fish with costia and using salt is that not getting more problems?? Salt will make the costia to explode in numbers. 😱😱🥴

Hi. Just tell me salinity 0.6%. for how long using the salt in goldfish tank to kill chilodonella? Do I have to repeat the treatment? Thank you.

Good stuff 👏

Great video Ray! And nice pond!!

When you say 10x and 40x thinks you mean 100x and 400x 🤔✌️

How long after I salt do I do a water change the water to remove salt

This pond looks sooo different than it will in the middle of the summer! Can’t wait until the fish all get to go home! ✌️❤️

How do you clean the smaller gravel, or do you just replace it?

So are UV lights even needed then?

Solid work. Timeless

why don't you use a vacuum cleaner to clean the skimmer?
