Decorating the koi carps pond with the water crop certainly gave special beauty. Really, it is fascinating gazed when the koi fish that swam around the lower water crop mutually in running... elegant and beautiful is'nt it? But did you know that the water crop also needed oxygen as in the case of koi carp? How we controlled it so that the koi carps got oxygen that was enough after shared with this crop?
When the pond of koi carps was decorated also with the water crop like algae, Cryptocoryne moehlmannii, the water lily, the lotus - & still many others, the content of most protracted oxygen in pond's water really must be maintained in the level of 5 ppm minimally. Remember that the crop needed oxygen at night, and produced oxygen during whole of the day. The fast growth of the water crop and un controlled must be matched with always cleansed these crops of the koi pond, so there was still available room to move and there was oxygen level that enough for the koi. Also with the water crop that died and rotted, immediately must be cleaned so that the water PH does not experience the change on the limit that could be tolerated by the fish koi pity.
Nearby by cleaning and controlling the growth of the water crop, so that the content of oxygen continued to be awakened it was suggested to always pay attention to the circulation of pond water. The fitting of the water pump that could circulate the pond's water in a trus manner could be carried out to increase most protracted oxygen at the same time as the implement that helped filtration guarded pond water stayed clean. In many matters, the lack of the level of oxygen for pond water, could cause the koi carps were mad max and even resulted in the sudden death.

Menghiasi kolam ikan koi dengan tanaman air tentu memberikan keindahan tersendiri. Sungguh mengasyikkan memandang ikan koi yang berenang diantara tanaman air hilir mudik dan saling berkejaran...elegan dan menggemaskan bukan? Tapi tahukah anda bahwa tanaman air juga memerlukan oksigen seperti halnya ikan-ikan koi? Bagaimana kita mengendalikan agar ikan koi mendapatkan oksigen yang cukup setelah berbagi dengan tanaman tersebut?
Bila kolam koi dihiasi pula dengan tanaman air seperti alga, Cryptocoryne moehlmannii, teratai, lotus - & masih banyak lagi, kandungan oksigen terlarut di air kolam betul-betul harus dipertahankan minimal pada kadar 5 ppm. Ingatlah bahwa tanaman membutuhkan oksigen pada malam hari, dan menghasilkan oksigen pada siang hari. Pertumbuhan tanaman air yang cepat dan tidak terkendali harus diimbangi dengan selalu membersihkan tanaman-tanaman tersebut dari kolam koi, sehingga masih tersedia ruang gerak dan kadar oksigen yang cukup bagi ikan koi. Begitu pula dengan tanaman air yang mati dan membusuk, harus segera dibersihkan agar PH air tidak mengalami perubahan diatas batas yang dapat ditolerir oleh ikan koi kesayangan.
Disamping dengan membersihkan dan mengendalikan pertumbuhan tanaman air, agar kandungan oksigen tetap terjaga disarankan untuk selalu memperhatikan sirkulasi air kolam. Pemasangan pompa air yang dapat mensirkulasi air kolam secara trus menerus dapat dilakukan untuk menambah oksigen terlarut sekaligus sebagai alat yang membantu filterisasi menjaga air kolam tetap bersih.
Dalam banyak hal, kekurangan kadar oksigen pada air kolam koi, dapat menyebabkan ikan koi mengalami stres dan bahkan mengakibatkan kematian mendadak.
