| Some of my first batch of koi many years ago died in a pond mishap. Then I replaced a few. They never made it out of QT. They came in from the pet store with something. I was determained to have one of those big fish. So I learned and practice koi health. Some people find it easier/cheaper to just replace.Which is true with pet store fish. When a person invests in high end or pay a few hundered plus $$ ,then they will probably own a scope and know how to effectivly treat a fish.There is a lot of competition in my area for selling koi. Fish farms,higher end koi shops, retail stores,and nurseries.I have often wondered myself,how do they sell all those fish. |
