Hope to see & meet you at the nationals Keith. I’ll be there both days (from US) & am so looking forward to seeing all the vats of beautiful koi & catching up with fellow RUclipsrs. 😊 New additions are stunning!!
Hello and wow, that's a long journey! Are you visiting family/on vacation? Not sure what day I'm going yet but should be, probably Saturday! Enjoy the show!
The API tests do go off mate. I was pulling my hair out with ammonia showing. Only about 0.25-0.5, but I couldn't work out why. Turns out, the reagent had gone off and the test was wrong.
Yes, I've had false reads with the api ammonia test. I'm using a new NT labs ammonia and it's reading about in line with what the hanna checker was. Cheers
The time for you to be seen spooked in the corner of the pond should be long gone by now, don't you think? Everyone here is starting to show swimming behaviour that has been trained to make them lose their guard and become preoccupied with food, as if they were competing with each other!
The indoor pond was feeding confidently before I lost 3 of them, a few week later I added 2 new koi and now 2 more so there's been lots of change. The trouble is I only go in there twice per day in the week so their normal is, no me, no noise.
Mate, they're two lovely looking fish 😊🐟
Beautiful fish! I am missing keeping fish but not missing the stress that comes with the hobby 😅. Living the life through your videos tho!
Hi Keith,

Beautiful shusui mate, can't wait so see it grow. I've got its brother. I know you shouldn't have favorites but if I did.... don't tell the others😂

@@KoiKicks on vacation! Visiting koi show and then am spending rest of vac at the beaches on southern coast.
Great stuff, the weather is warm and humid at the moment. Hope it stays warm for you! Enjoy your stay in the UK 🇬🇧
@@KoiKicks thank you, I can’t wait to go! And thanks so much for subscribing to my channel! 👍😊🤗

@@KoiKicks I've also had issues with the high range pH test. I always do three tests of that to make sure.

I have the same issue. Caused by a heron terrorizing the pond unfortunately.
They are slowly becoming more confident again.

Hi Keith
How many brushes do you have in your easypod bud
Hi, 4 of the large/think 15cm and 7x 10cm. Cheers
SSF sakai fish farm, saki hikari, not saki fish farm 👍🏽
Hate shusui but the sanke was right up my street 👌🏻 great body
Funny isn't it as sanke generally bore me and I steer away.
