Default Tranquillizer For Fish

Hi,

I must drain my 2400 gallon pond because of a leak. Have 13 koi that at
least 2 foot long each. Is there something I can put in the water so they
won't be so stressed when I transfer them to spa while the pond is being
fixed? Of course, I need something I can buy and get right away. Thanks
for any help.

nothing that doesnt have some long term effects and/or could be dangerous. put some
salt into the holding tank (1 tablespoon per 5 gallons) and then salt in the pond 0.9
lbs per 100 gallons and this will protect them. one thing.. net the holding tank.
they will jump. Ingrid
