Broodstock (Breeder Koi) Health Concerns

Broodstock health is a 7 page PDF file with all my slides from a presentation I made at University of Georgia on the subject of fish health in broodstock when they’re gathered for breeding purposes in the Spring, usually. It is instructive on the parasites, water quality issues, viruses and handling considerations when you put so many fish together under that kind of stress. At least the water isn’t hot.
