Default why did my koi die?

Tim, Did you treat the water you added? I mean did
you add AmQuel or one of the other water treatments?

I agree that you don't have a big enough pond for Koi.
I started out with the 120 gallon size and bought FOUR
koi! Omg! They were 4 inches long ... by October
I had a 3,000 gallon pond built. I really felt sorry for the big little
guys!

Good Luck ...

If you didnt test for chloramines, it could have been that.
however, did you test for temperature?

pond fish
as you are replacing all the fish, and your pond is small you can use it

for
quarantine, but I would suggest GF only as this is too small a pond for

koi. Ingrid
