Dear Steve,
Thank you so much for your input !
For rate of flow of water, i am not sure wether it is considered too fast or too slow. The only thing i can measure is that, it comes from 2.5 inches pipe, which has quite high rate (again, i cant get the exact value in dV/dt hahaha...but it took about 6 hours or more to fill the pond from zero). Yet, what i can conclude is that, i do not think that there's oxygen level problem for my pond. There's no sign of it and no sign of any weed or green water yet. I believe this because, before the water enters the pond, it actually pass thru a small (i have no idea what to call this in english) 'bank' beside the paddy field on top, and there are huge surface area and volime ration, and with lots of small rapids to increase oxygen concentration.
To tell you the truth, there are about 14 fishes there (most of them 40-50cm now) and from those 14...I only want to keep 3+1+3...3 koi which are considered show quality, 1 which is very interesting kohaku, which i want to see him in his 60-70cm since it has a unique skin-it glitters like ginrin, but it is not ginrin...and 3 which are the first 3 koi i purchased before i become 'full time' koi addict...but then, those 3 koi i'll put inside my current concrete pond.......so there will be at most 4 koi for now...
and if in this case only 4 koi, sized 40+cm...how should my feeding regime goes ? is it still 350g a day ? anyway, 350g a day means every one feeding time or 350g is a total a day ?
Thanks alot !
Dimas
