LymnoZyme
 
Anyone using this product? Since we've been using it there hasn't been one
fish with ulcers. We did lose one 3 year old koi this past week but there
wasn't a mark on it. It appears to have "just died."

Last breeding season they really banged themselves up and not one fish got
an infection. We had young koi to survive and grow. Thoughts? Ideas? Is
there something even better out there?

What would you guys recommend for digesting or disintegrating the mulm on
the pond bottom? It appears to be a thin later of soil from the pots,
gravel and bits of plants that fell to the bottom. Suggestions.... ?

I've used KoiZyme (LymnoZyme) since I added the first Koi to my pond.
Never had an illness other than anchor worm. Lost one Koi to the
heron. A second one was stabbed but recovered with no other
treatment.

For the mulm I used Pond Care Pond-Zyme. Like the KoiZyme, I can't
prove that it works - but it seems to, so I don't plan on stopping
using either product any time soon! I used both year-round due
to the lack of winter here.

LymnoZyme
 
I have never used KoiZyme (LymnoZyme) and since I have netted the pond so the birds
couldnt get to the water have had no problems. Actually, occasional scrape from
spawnings and one deep gouge due to a hook I had badly placed healed up fine with
just the background salt in the water. Since I moved my fish to the current pond
with the big veggie filter I have lost one orfe to jumping, 2 fish to internal
infection of the eggs confirmed by necropsy (2 years ago that is when the netting was
put on to keep the birds from crapping in the veggie filter). with the net on there
are few to no leaves in the pond. with the high quality food there is little to no
wastes accumulating on the bottom either. wastes seem to get sucked up and settle
out in the veggie filter which is cleaned out in fall. I can still see a white label
and pea gravel from one of the water lilies on the bottom. the fish pulled it out
the first year.
the only problem I got is $%%^^&& snails and they close down the itty pump to my UV.

I use BZT as an additive ... probably similar to Pond Zyme.

Ditto, with Nedra.

KoiZyme, I purchased my whole season's worth this year. After removing the
screening noticed black fish had a red mark from banging his dorsal fin on
something. Added KoiZyme, even though temp was only 48F, sore is now white.

I do not want to spend this season like last season, so will keep up with
my maintenance doses of KoiZyme, BZT and feed ShoKoi..... not to mention
watch my water quality. ;o)

Word to the wise, don't let your pond hit critical mass, even those with
good training have it happen, it just takes them longer. ;o)
