is this the one with the now famous fish; four step rose? what a beautiful Kohaku!

[Ruth Rice]

Hi Mike,
No. This is a new one I believe. Four Step Rose was with Joe Zuritsky and they did testing on her to see if she had a tumor or what was causing a bulge.
This one is of Burt Balou's pond (which I have never seen, but have heard a lot of good things about).
I have our VCR set to tape the episode.

That stunk

Just got done watching it. Nice pond(s) and fish - interesting - could have been longer through.

I don't think there will ever be a nationaly televised show that dedicates a full segment on the proper way to keep Koi. Burt tells me that the film crew spent all day at his place. The short segment at Burt's home was no where near what I was hoping for. Still another glossed over view of what it really takes to keep Koi healthy. What was worse was the lady that had problems with her way under filtered small pond (complete with high ammonia readings) was that she is now considering converting her swimming pool into a Koi pond. Hopefully, she will consult with Burt on that project.
