Wow. Here in the metropolis of Davenport we have a few stop signs... but no need for lights
I've been through Newcastle a few times, but it has been years.
We do have some members in the Norman area who I think have similar water. I'll see if I can get someone to chime in on this for you. Sorry to hear about the Midorigoi. The hard water conditions probably would have been tough on its color as it is, but it is a shame to lose one. One word of comfort though. We have several members who manage to keep some outstanding Koi in Okie water, so it CAN be done
