1. Why test pondwater quality?

Copyright (c) Alec Scaresbrook. Testing pond water.


For fishkeepers in general, and especially for Koi keepers, the testing of your pond water is essential.


There are so many factors that can affect the wellbeing of Koi that you should be equipped to monitor water conditions regularly, and to check specific parameters if you suspect a problem. You should always test water before adding it to an established pond; and test new ponds to decide when it's safe to add fish.
