Application Tips

• Type of Salt: Use non-iodized, pure salt specifically designed for ponds, avoiding table salt and salts with anti-caking agents.
• Dissolving Salt: Always dissolve the salt in a bucket of pond water before adding it to avoid burning the koi.
• Monitoring Levels: Regularly check the salinity levels using a digital salt meter to ensure they remain within safe limits.

Additional Considerations

• Avoid using salt continuously, as high levels can be harmful to koi over time, potentially causing kidney damage.
• Salt can help with disease prevention and recovery but should be used judiciously and primarily when necessary.
