Good Heavens, John ... I thought these losing days were over.
I'm so sorry.

-Thanks guys -

the pond looks realy wierd with so few fish now, but there is a "good
side" to all this, I am hoping/planing to move about 18 mos from now.
it will be a lot easyer to move 11 Koi than 1oo Koi
that is if I can stay away from the LFS Koi tanks in the meantime :-)

Sorry to hear of your continued fish loss. Question - Do
you plan on putting in a huge pond at future home site? And
where do you plan the future home site to be?

I'm sorry for your loss, but if you have survivors load the pond with
plants or spawning mats to hide eggs and fry and raise your
replacements. I can't help but feel these survivors may have more
resistance to the disease and are likely to pass it on to their
descendants.

John,

Sorry to hear you ended up losing so many.

I lost a couple to ulcers this year and can empathize with the fact when
things go wrong, this hobby isn't that fun and relaxing when one goes thru
all the steps and expense to save them. ~ jan )
