Re: [amoonda] Transfering koi from house aquarium to a pond

Hi amoonda,
You may want to consider doing a 25% of water change daily to your
aquarium with the water from the pond over the next few days. When
that is done, the water parameters in the aquarium will eventually have
the same readings as the pond.
With regards to transporting the koi, I think the usual method of bagging
the koi into a plastic bag and placing it floating in the pond water surface
for 15 to 30 minutes to regulate the water temperature in the plastic bag
before releasing it into the pond should be alright to prevent further stress
to the koi.
Try to avoid having the water in the plastic bag from getting into the pond
when you are in the process of transfering the koi into the pond. Discard
away the plastic bag water. Goodluck.
Best Regards,
Thiam Hwa
