HOW TO TREAT KOI ULCERS

[@OchibaKoi]

Also heavy aeration required during PP dip, from my experiences. 🙌 Part and parcel. Lovely fish.

[@peterpaul5130]

great video will you also treat the goldfish pond ?@ how do you rate the same stuff that you get from the chemist ?

[@koiselectsa]

peter PAUL that is fine - think it’s called condez crystals ?

[@baitking1]

Hi I'm in manchester England is there a particular water temperature you should not use the potassium permanganate to carry out the bath or dip as one of my koi has an ulcer on its side. The ulcer is very recent so no open wound .The water temp is 8.5 degrees and fairly stable for the next week or so. Would it be ok for me to Carrie out bath. Do you mix a fresh pp bath each time you carry out a bath Kind regards Tom

[@gerardshields9389]

Did you post a vid on how to treat the full pong with pp like you said you would ?

[@koiselectsa]

That's an old video I'm sure I have somewhere let me check. What are u treating

[@leod6590]

I dipped my ulcerated koi for 5mins in 100ppm PP, but only the mouth wound was oxidized, still some wound under the scales appear red. When should I repeat the dip? In 48hrs, or sooner/later? Thank you.

My goldfish had a nasty ulcer on his side. I removed the fish drom the pond and put him in a large bucket. I then squirted the ulcer with Gentian Violet. I left him overnight and put some more on. Then I returned him to his pond and after about two weeks his ulcer has healed!

Thanks for that video new to Koi keeping got fish with ulcer in his mouth 👍👍👍

Light peroxides ? And wound seal where do I get that from

[@koiselectsa]

shaun barry you can use friars balsam to seal wounds. This and peroxide available at chemist

@@koiselectsa what to kill the parasite plz once I clean wound up

[@koiselectsa]

shaun barry best is potassium dip for mouth areas and gills

[@koiselectsa]

shaun barry also light potassium on earbud can really clean the wound it fizzes

@@koiselectsa ok I see if I can find it online

[@zaidsiddiqui9074]

Did you ever make a video on treating the whole pond

[@koiselectsa]

No but I could

[@zaidsiddiqui9074]

I think you should. Your treatment videos really help. They are easy and simple. Much better than other videos on KZbin

[@electoplater]

@@zaidsiddiqui9074 regarding pp it is not a easy treatment to get wright every pond would need a different amount depending the amount of dissolved organics in the pond

[@mamamugre9195]

Can you treat the pond with this.

[@koiselectsa]

Yes but be careful 3g per 1000litres

[@koiselectsa]

I treat over 5 days you make sure

[@jsongj]

My fish is not responding well to this treatment, it flips over right after the dip. Concern it will not make it overnight!

[@koiselectsa]

If the fish is in bad condition it won't do well. Reduce the time in the dip and judge on the fishes behaviour

[@MrTruthislight]

a productI've never found effective is malachite green.

[@koiselectsa]

It's worked for me but two treatments for sure 4 days apart

[@tiroshanindika1777]

👍👍

[@andybaldeo4773]

I tried it once an I killed my koi I think I used to much ..it was my first time using it

[@koiselectsa]

You need to be precise

[@mehrdadvahabi9342]

You should put airstone for 20 minutes before put the fish inside it !

[@koiselectsa]

The water I use is heavily aerated

[@kristinabarkovic4525]

@@koiselectsa I think what he meant was you are supposed to let it gas off 20 mins before you put the fish in with heavy aeration. Then during the bath or dip you need to use aerator too. It doesn’t appear that you did

[@marcellinemcnally3768]

Mjx the pp with hot water
