Welcome New Arrivals!

You buy healthy fish and put them into your pond - and that's it. But a few points have to be taken care of, so that all goes well. For the fish, this move is a completely different matter. Simply catching the fish causes them a lot of stress. Wriggling in the net often damages the fish's mucous membrane which is their protection against infection. That's why newly introduced fish are more susceptible to diseases than the fish already settled in.

 

JBL AccliPond has been developed to make the move and acclimatisation to the new environment and to new water values easier for the fish.

It protects the mucous membrane and strengthens the fish's resistance to disease. JBL AccliPond needs to be INSIDE the transport bag before the fish so that its mucous membrane protecting agents can start working straight away.

Before putting the animals into the pond it's best to add a dose to the pond water.

 

Furthermore the new fish need to get used to tour pond's water values slowly because the degree of hardness (minerals) and the pH value may vary greatly. The move into deviating water parameters causes the fish enormous stress!

 

Therefore please open the transport bag straight away after arrival at your pond and add small quantities of water to the bag for half an hour. To get large koi used to the new values please put them in a tub. This way the new arrivals get used to the water temperature and the other new water parameters.
