Transporting Large Koi ?

[fatboywez]

whats the best way to transport large Koi???

 

[Tokis-Phoenix]

How large are the koi exactly (1ft, 2ft, 3ft etc?) and how long are you transporting them for roughly?

 

[fatboywez]

they weigh about 15lb and they will be traveling about 15 mins from pond to pond

 

[Tokis-Phoenix]

But their actual length? See if you can get hold of some large plastic transport fish bags from a fish store that sells koi (they'll probably have large transport fish bags) .

When the EA transport fish they put them in buckets of water and drive slowly and try to miss all the pot holes. If its only 15mins then Im sure they would be fine. Although 15lbs is quite big

I have heard of people moving 140ish pond fish in black bins...the ridged ones! for an hour and a half drive...all arrived well and are still alive....
