Especially Guinness Stout!

LOL...Alcoholic Koi Keepers.
FWIW, Guinness is especially good for vegetarians and ladies on their
period
as it contains a high count of iron!

For hubby it's New Castle Brown ...and he actually does drink it by the pond
in a pint glass (bought some for him at World market that are the real
thing). If he can't find Newkie Brown ......then he'll settle for
Boddingtons in the can with a widget or a Fosters Bitter. True Englishmen
love their lager. (I prefer a Shandy myself or a glass of Sangria.)

ps....we do have two new tiny butterfly koi that stick together and don't
seem to enjoy eating with the other 4 fish we have.

About 6 weeks ago I restocked the pond with some young Koi (~2" mixed
colour mostly but two 4" ghosts as well).

I appreciate that fish usally take a while to become acclimatised to a
new home but they have been constantly hiding, mostly grouped together
underneatha patch where the liner overhangs. They ignore all food
(there is plenty of crap on the bottom for them to eat a this time of
year though). By this point, late spring, I'd have expected them to
start coming out of their shells a bit and maybe taking the odd food
stick.

Does anyone have any advice as to how I could help calm them down a
bit (they are in no danger from predators, its a steep walled central
London pond so no Herons/Kingfishers etc.). Water lilies are just
starting to open and I imagine these will help.

I'm not worried aobut their health, they seem well and active when
spooked.

Patience young padawon. Sit by the pond, and let them see you. It helps to
drink a beer or two whilst you do this.

Thanks - I'll try and be more patient. The weather is just getting to
the point where I can indeed drink a few beers by the pond (not the
last few days though!).

I have learned over the past year or so the only thing that is more
important then water in your pond, is patience in the ponder.
