Limozyme/ Koizyme, get it now b/4 it's too late
Hi all,
Time to wake up the good bugs with limozyme/koizyme! I've already lost 8 Koi this season! We had a sudden warm spell (90 degrees), and one by one they croaked! -- _______________________________________ "The difference between 'involvement' and 'commitment' is like an eggs-and-ham breakfast: The chicken was 'involved' - the pig was 'committed'." http://community.webshots.com/user/godwino |

Wow, sorry to hear this. I'm with you on the Koizyme. I purchased my season
supply ($125) this year, and plan to start treating as soon as the temperature gets up to the treatable temp. ~ jan On Sat, 13 Mar 2004 07:05:35 GMT, "Just Me \"Koi\"" wrote: Time to wake up the good bugs with limozyme/koizyme!

Good suggestion, Just Me. At what water temp do you start treating the
pond with Koizyme? I bought a bottle late last fall; it is sitting - unopened - in the pond/dining room - somewhere. Hope it is okay to use.

It probably os no longer good if it has not been in the refridgerator for
more than say few hours (According to my local pond stuff peddler) I also think once the water temp is up to 65-70 then you should save yourself money and use regular enzyme stuff instead of the expensive koizyme! -- _______________________________________ "The difference between 'involvement' and 'commitment' is like an eggs-and-ham breakfast: The chicken was 'involved' - the pig was 'committed'." http://community.webshots.com/user/godwino "Nedra" wrote in message hlink.net...

Just Me, According to the quote that Steve posted it is good
for 4 to 6 months unopened at room temperature. I've got the CSA to add as soon as the water gets warm enough.

but why are they dying? I think you need to find out what the problem is instead of
throwing stuff into the pond. you do have good oxygenation, right? the bottom of the pond is clear? did you examine any of them? it sounds more like toxic water of some kind than a bacterial infection, altho a necropsy of one of the dead fish would be valuable.

Ingrid,
I am so pass messing around with the fish. Please don't misunderstand me, I just feel that the cure is sometimes worse than the disease. I know what the problem is because it happened last year also. Being in California we get a sudden heat wave in spring or late winter, bugs get active, algae blooms, parasites have left wounds, and bacteria infects wound. Those that are sick are too late to be helped, and those that are well can be spared of disease by combating bad bacteria with good bacteria. My next battle? Spawning, and the inevitable ammonia spike! Which begs the question, can Koi be spayed? All my water parameters are perfect! Other fish are happy, and I am happy too. -- _______________________________________ "The difference between 'involvement' and 'commitment' is like an eggs-and-ham breakfast: The chicken was 'involved' - the pig was 'committed'." http://community.webshots.com/user/godwino wrote in message ... but why are they dying?

Limozyme/ Koizyme, get it now b/4 it's too late
Just a minor note, Koizyme and Bacteria/Enzymes (BZT) are not the same
thing. The BZT works on pond debris. Koizyme eats the slime coat that sloughs off the fish and/or covers their feces, as this is what aeromonas feed on. The Koizyme eats the slime and reduces the food for the aeromonas and thus starves them out, why you have to keep adding the Koizyme. My bottle mentions using at 50F and up. ~ jan On Sun, 14 Mar 2004 10:30:07 GMT, "Just Me \"Koi\"" wrote: It probably os no longer good if it has not been in the refridgerator for more than say few hours (According to my local pond stuff peddler) I also think once the water temp is up to 65-70 then you should save yourself money and use regular enzyme stuff instead of the expensive koizyme! ~ jan |
