PH, Temperature differentials, handling methods (Be Gentle you don't
want to scrape off any more fish slime than necessary can lead to skin
infections on the fish), water hardness, salinity (Be surprising how
much salt can be in tap water in coastal areas), chlorine, let the
water age a bit before introducing new fish in the case of refilled or
new ponds..

I want to move my koi to another pond, what should I do to make sure

Thanks
