Mookey...

Hahaha.....haven't check the pH in a long time, but it should be ok since I got some oyster shells in the filter to act as buffer.
It's stable and the koi are happy..

Hope my koi spawn soon....so I don't have to go buy any...TongueWink

Hi Jarvis,
I learned this little trick off of the koi forum last year...raising my PH to the proper level trigger the spawning...lol..did that last year and also this year and it worked alright, that is for sure..lol
I forgot now who told me about this on the forum, but according to my size pond, I got a bucket of pond water and added 1/4 of a cup of baking soda, stirred it well to dissolve, then poured 1/2 of it around the ponds edges..waited an hour, checked the PH again, and added the remaining solution and that raised the PH to 7.0...Activity in the pond increased 100%...LOL Since I don't know your pond size, I would ask someone else how much to do in your pond if you want to trigger your guy's into spawning..LOL
Good luck...let me know when they spawn!

Hi Jarvis,
Found these two links talking about the baking soda...check them out..Really my pond is 279 gallons......I don't know how many gallons yours is... Be sure to check your PH before you begin this...it just might be alright...Please check it first.....but, you could use the same amount, just do it every hour or so until the PH reaches the correct number Smile Better to be safe than sorry, unless someone else comes along with a better answer for you on your gallons.. Smile But, put some pond water in a bucket, and dissolve well 1/4 a cup of baking soda..pour along "half" of the solution around the edges..then wait and hour or so check your PH and then if need be, pour the rest of the bucket along the other side of the edges of the pond..that is what I did...don't want your PH too high...so, do it slowly so you don't shock your fish... Oh, check your PH first before you start.. Wink Also, you asked me how old my ogon was..she is three years old and first time I've seen her spawn...in my bigger pond I have a two year old male that spawn w/the females this year...Blush This is my third year of raising frys... Let me know how you come out Jarvis Good Luck....are your fish swollen w/eggs obviously?
