Koi living in mud ponds.
Hello all,
I've read many threads about Koi needing to have crystal clean water in order to thrive. Then I looked at a few websites for Koi breeders in Japan, and their Koi live in mud ponds and the water is far from crystal clear. Look at these pics - http://www.tategoi.com/oomokoi/koi%20harvest.htm Now... these breeders have zillions of dollars (yen) invested in their Koi, so they need them to maintain prime health. This being the case, is it really necessary to have clear water for koi? Yes, Ph, nitrates, nitrites, and such need to be correct - but it seems the water itself does not need to be clear. What am I missing here???? - David |
