Looking good, nice idea to use the nexus, I’ve got a Burtons Combi which has spare connections I’m toying with the idea of an ibc and use the spare on the drum👍
When keeping fry in floating nets over time the holes in the netting stays to clog which then in turn stops the water from being refreshed which then turns the water toxic that's why the breeders are constantly moving their fry from one net to another so they can keep them clean thus being able to more fry living if that makes sense mate 👍👍👍
It's been a while since I have bred Goldie's and koi, neat concept, understand the situation., I. Usually move the spawning mop to a smaller container, to me it's much more easier to care for. As they grow the container gradually increase, your setup up it kool and I am so loving it. Nice work. Did you actually see the dead fry in the container? The thing is , some fry will grow faster than others, the larger ones usually consume the smaller once, as a result , the fry population will look decrease in number. It's a great idea to separate fries in batches. These batches are based on their individual size.
@@projectkoi7822 that's a bit of a tough one to answer as depends on the breed ie showa, sanke etc etc I have had excellent results from all 3 which is why I continue to go back to them but I had to pick one then it would have to be Adam Byer Koi Farm and that's not just because we help out there on occasions but the growth that is tied with quality as they grow I have 4 fish in the main pond that have all come from Adams and was spawned last year and are now 30cm + @ just over 1 year old and the quality is out of this world and is only going to get better 👍👍👍
Hi mate had the same problem with my fry I got 250 from new frost koi and they had costia then I got some more from Adam buyer and I lots loads of them I think it is bad bacteria I ct them for 4 day and now iv not lost any more I think you should ct them not salt mate
I got fry from new forest 25 days ago mate and when they got here there was one bead so I put him on the mic and had costia on him so I look at londs more and they all had It mate so have a look iv had Loads diy
I had 250 from new forest a month a go and they were full of Costia treated but still lost about half of them and they ain’t doing to well have found fluke on some as well
Yer thay are bad mate I got them to send more for free thay are all still alive and clean off anything get on to them it not right for them to send them like that

@@projectkoi7822 think they are very good, plug and play , water is crystal clear👍👍👍
Looking good. You ve done well there running them both from the Nexus.
Cheers Lau, yeah the nexus wil be more than capable to filter both. Lot of messing around to get it right but up and running now

Yeah I noticed that they was really gunked up mate that's why I want to get them so badly into the IBC.
