hello i am new here, i came here to find what you people feed koi fry.
i operate a fish farm of 20 hectares and recently have been granted license to run koi and goldfish.
i have been producing fish for 5 years. koi for 3. still i have problems that are through lack of knowledge or time spent working with them.
i am guessing that the correlation between a certain koi feed and the contraction of disease is that if the carp pox is existing withing the pond then yes the fish that are fed a poor diet are susceptible.
however some diseases will attack regardless. there is differentiation between such diseases of which i am unsure which carp pox falls under, though it is best to be safe and have good water and good feeding and handling practises.
if water quality is poor and diet and handling is poor then diease will likely occur.
it may be that people that feed poorly will also likely have poor water quality through lack of knowledge or lack of time spent due to not being mad in the mind with humanXfish blood running ever present through the brain!
we are all here for a reason.. we must remember to eat well ourselves or our health may suffer also.
