The search function is here for a reason. The reason is so that people don't always have to post the same questions over and over and over because chances are, it's already been asked multiple times. By posting something that's already been answered several times, it takes time away from questions that haven't been asked before and need immediate help.
I started to this forum the same way you have.. not searching.. just asking away, and annoying the crap outta people. Annoying people and getting offended with everything "mean" someone would say to me. I got infractions, and I even got banned at one point.
This is a great site- but take the advice as it's given to you. There are so many people here that have been in the hobby longer than some of us have been alive.. they know their koi stuff like the back of their hand.
I would listen to powerman, and just take it step by step. Goldfish are extremely hardy creatures- it living in slime is definitely not unheard of. My friend had a goldfish just out of a tank and into a bowl of milk while she was at work for 6 hours, and that thing lived 8 more years after that!
Koi are not easy.. but it does get better. Just take all the advice given to you, and do your best.
And use the SEARCH key!
