Need help how to protect 400ltrs of matured KI for 2 to 4 months by using Scrubs Ammonia.

The K1 have been in use for about 11 months in my Nexus 100km away from my premises at a friend’s pond.
I need to transport my Nexus back to my premises to enable posioning and levelling of an underground filter chamber and a new pond building project that will take between 2 – 4 months, weather permitting to complete.

I will be using a QT tank with Bakki Shower to keep the K1 in, over this period in time.
An Air ring will be installed at the bottom of QT to keep the K1 Aerated, and the water flow to return via the Bakki Shower.

[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

My question is 1. How much… 2... How to add… 3...How often
to add the Scrubs Ammonia, I believe scrubs ammonia also contains a soapy liquid.

Any alternative product or method to keep K1 matured over this period?

Ordinary koi food liquefied works great, about half a cup twice a week should do the trick. Just add to the pond.

Hi Bobby, onthou net om 'n plan temaak met die suig lyn van jou pomp want ek kan jou waarborg dat die kaldness gedurende die airation daar sal ingaan en jou pomp verstop. Ek weet nie hoe jou suig lyn in die binnekant lyk nie maar 'n end cap met 'n paar gate in geboor sal werk.
