Hi the above is my current kois that I've, brought them from many different price's of course cheap... not those good quality else I won't be getting them dirt cheap right ? May I know what is their breed like Kohaku's, Shiro and Showa... etc I know nuts =) the 4 bigger kois are got lately. I'm using a fiberglass tank (3ft+ x 2ft+) guess I have to keep them indoor as I'm living in HDB. Wanting to create a mini waterfall but it takes some times and planning before I settled everything in 1 or 2 months time. My First DIY Filter
My 2nd DIY Filter
My 3rd DIY Filter (Will be using this till 2 months later when my final filter and pvc piping, pebbles and landscape is done)
One problem I'm facing now is that my kois all seems so afraid of anybody who walk pass the area but when we're not around they're swimming happily and eating. I actually started 1 month ago with 4 mini kois in my fish tank all grown healthy but when I get this fiberglass tank 2 have committed suicide therefore the smallest of the 2 survival was being released back to the fish tank. While the bigger one left is with my 4 newly brought bigger koi in this fiberglass tank. Intending to get 3 more kohaku's from mainland fish farm and 1 full black koi and 1 red and black koi and 1 more showa from serangoon north. So total would be 6 more new koi + 6 koi now in fiberglass... total 12, and will maintain water quality for 1 month plus and change 25% water and add in landscape and improved filtering media and filter box + waterfall (not rock type but landscape titles type flowing down back to the fiberglass) Most important what is the names of the kois I'm having now... ? and why they so timid but after throwing down the pellets they eat like crazy...
