Why you should use pure oxygen as a koi dealer
At Sacramento Koi we seriously feel every koi dealer should at least take a moment to look at this system. We have been using the Advantage Oxygen System since 2020 with some amazing results. A definite improvement in the health of our koi along with a reduction in mortality rate. But most of all the peace of mind it gives us is priceless.
Each October, for over 20 years now, we have traveled to Japan to purchased a large collection of koi to be sold back at our shop in California. In the past we would anxiously hold our breath from the time we received the koi, until after the majority were sold. Our biggest concern was always the same: What if we had a power outage or equipment failure when no one was at the shop. In a relatively short period of time we could easily loose a pond full of koi if not the whole shipment. A catastrophe like this could get very expensive very quickly.
The Advantage Oxygen System coupled with the optional LifeSupport and the iSocket Alert system have completely eliminated these fears. Now, in the event of a power outage, we get a text message alert within seconds that there is a problem with the power. Even when we get an alert we don’t panic. We know the koi are safe because of the backup oxygen system. This system will automatically takes over the responsibility of the oxygen generator by continuing to provide oxygen for all the koi. Depending on the size of the oxygen tank selected, this backup system is designed to provide plenty of oxygen for the koi for up to several days while with out electricity.
Even in the event that, rather than a power outage, a single pond’s pump fails or looses prime, that pond is still protected. The Oxygen system is designed to operate 24 hours a day providing more oxygen to each pond than is needed for the koi to survive without the aid of a pump or air stone running.
When you consider the cost of loosing even one nice koi due to a lack of oxygen, this system more then pay for itself in a very short time. If you have any questions as to how this system might work in your particular situation, please feel free to give us a call.
