I have read where , when you bring NEW fish into an established pond, you
guys quarantine them.

what is the directions?
where??? can you put them into a really BIG plastic tub? with an air stone?

how long are they kept there??

what would you put in the water with them??
salt ? (what concentration? is sea salt the same as table salt,, or
water softener salt???)
potassium permanganate??

(ok, for my first pond stocking..... I know its gonna be wrong, but will
probably get most fish same time & not quarantine them, but need above info
for when I 'add' future fish)
