Fish pond water kills all fish within 24 hours.

Brett,

Is this new filter system be a charcoal cartridge or other consumable filter
system? If so, I would highly recommend the use of a chlorine test kit,
before, during and after each use. My BIL was using a home water purifier,
charcoal based, and it was not that old, when he killed one fish, had two
seriously distressed fish. When we tested for chlorine, the tap water was
swimming pool safe.

Most posters appear to be focusing in on the auto-refill system.
Although I find it hard to understand how some type of toxic substance
could get in and persist in there after so much water has gone through
the system, I will try some of the suggestions on testing this (i.e.
filling the pond with tap water from another source, and testing
goldfish in a bowl filled with auto-refill water). Once again the
auto-refill comes off an outside hose water outlet (supplied by the
city water supply).

Thanks,
Timothy


Timothy,

Would you be interested in testing a new pond water filter that we are
developing?

It screws onto the end of your hose, and removes all the toxins
(metals, chlorine, chloramine, etc.)?

Let me know, we're looking for some user feedback.

You can contact me at

Good luck either way,

Thanks,

Brett

Tim,

In MHO it would be foolish to add anything new until you have solved
the original problem.

I would be interested in testing a new pond filter, however I do not
think it would be in the best interest of the developer since right
now, it seems that this pond is cursed with some unknown factor.

Anyway, today I plan to do the following test. I will get a bowl of
water from the auto-refill outlet, and a bowl of water from the
kitchen faucet (same source I used successfully to keep fish in a bowl
for a week. I will treat with dechlorinator, and try goldfish in each
bowl. If the goldfish die in the auto-refill water and not the kitchen
sink water, then that tells me it is the auto-refill system that is at
fault. Although this would not tell me why, it would at least give me
some answers.

Will repost when I get an answer.
