{"title":"Pond Salt for Koi","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"collection-seo-content\"\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003ePond Salt for Koi Health and Stress Reduction\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003ePond salt is one of the most versatile and affordable tools in a koi keeper's arsenal. Play It Koi carries pure, non-iodized pond salt in a range of sizes for koi ponds of every volume. Used correctly, pond salt reduces osmotic stress on fish, supports the natural slime coat, inhibits nitrite toxicity, and provides a gentle first-line treatment for many common health issues. Unlike harsh chemicals, salt is natural, does not damage biological filtration at standard doses, and remains in the water until physically removed through water changes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eHow Pond Salt Works\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eKoi constantly expend energy maintaining their internal salt balance against the freshwater environment through a process called osmoregulation. Adding salt to the pond water at a low concentration of 0.1 to 0.3 percent reduces this osmotic workload, freeing energy for growth, healing, and immune function. At higher concentrations of 0.3 to 0.5 percent, salt becomes therapeutic — it can help control certain parasites, reduce the toxicity of elevated nitrite levels, and speed recovery from minor infections and transport stress.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eDosing and Application\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eAlways dissolve pond salt in a bucket of pond water before adding it to the system — never dump dry salt directly into the pond where it could contact fish. A standard maintenance dose is one pound per 100 gallons for a 0.1 percent solution. For therapeutic use, gradually increase to three pounds per 100 gallons over 24 to 48 hours. Use a salt meter or refractometer to verify concentration. Remember that salt does not evaporate — only add replacement salt after water changes, not top-offs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eSalt as Part of a Health Program\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003ePond salt works well alongside \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/koi-medicine\"\u003ekoi medications\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/koi-parasite-treatments\"\u003eparasite treatments\u003c\/a\u003e as part of a comprehensive health management plan.

While there is not an exact number a person must achieve (some pond keepers use no added salt) a number of 0.12 salinity is a very safe but also effective number for ponds with both fish and plants. Ponds with no plants can tolerate much higher salt contents and so if you have no plants a number of 0.20 salinity would be beneficial.
