  • In this video I administer the 1st ever Virkon Aquatic dose into my Koi Pond, but why.
    Following some comments from my viewers, after the loss of some fish, I did some research and watched some other videos on how others had used Virkon on their channels and decided to go for it to see if there is any bacterial issues in the pond, will Virkon sort them out so I don't loose anymore fish...🤔😉👍

    Man im gutted I missed Only fins, great to hear it was good though.
    I have used/ do/ will use Virkon regularly, a lot have said its amazing. One thing that I did learn (via Paula and other respected Koi heads) about it is its great at killing bacteria in your water but cant kill anything thats in the kois blood. So awesome at preventing things.
    I may try these gadget thing, somehow I missed your video on it.
    Merry Christams mate and all the best for 2024 🎉

    • @keepingitkoi
      @keepingitkoi Před 8 měsíci +1

      @KoiPondLifestyle yes I e seen people do this also but I have never found a need to do that because yes it gets rid of nasty bacteria but it can't pick and choose so it gets the good bacteria too so I only use it if I feel there is a need for it 👍 but this time of year your filters won't have much bacteria anyway so as mentioned before it won't hurt right now even if there is no need for it 😊
