Pond Fish Have White Stuff On Them, Fish Diseases Symptoms Treatments

If your koi or pond fish have fin or tail rot caused by a pseudomonas bacteria never cut their fin or tail off.

Koi fish photography. If not controlled there is a 100 mortality rate of the fish in the aquarium. Gallons of pond water making a 20 solution. My goldfish in my outdoor pond 4900 litres have started to get a white film on their bodies and the smallers ones are on top of pond not doing well at all.

However with careful treatment of the aquariums fish water ornaments and plants the disease can be controlled. Stop feeding for 3 4 days. I have a large filter system and the water is very clear.

I have tested water and its ph is high. Finrot can be the result of a bacterial infection or as a fungal infection which rots the fin more evenly and is more likely to produce a white edge. We have had the gold fish 9 days before we put the new fish in and they were fine but now not.

Fish struggles to swim may float with head tipped down or have difficulty surfacing no balance etc. I think it was the other two fish that introduced a fungal infectionbacteria. We put two other fish in there and within 48 hours they were dead with white stuff growing on them and now our three gold fish have it on them and dying.

I just got him a couple of days ago at petco which i have had problems with in the past with the same kind of parasite thing but i couldnt heal them. The actual fish in question my daughter won at a fair last year we only had a small bowl but kept it clean and fed it and it lived surprisingly she asked for more fish and the father in law who has fish n knows some stuff about them got us this tank which is 2ft by 2ft i think he said and brought my daughter some other fish to go with it. White spot is very contagious.

May occur after eating. Gently place fish in a soft nylon net then lower them into the salt dip for 5 to 10 minutes no longer. When one fish in a tank gets sick it wont be long before the rest of the fish will start showing symptoms.

My goldfish got it yesterday so i put a tiny bit of sea salt in there and turn the temp up to 86 f and a lot of it is gone plus he had clamped fins too and hes a lot better not. Make an un iodized salt dip by using pond salt available at your local pond retailer. There is a mixture of koi and goldfish in the pond.

Btw make sure you look this up though because idk about catfishgood luck fish your fishes. I have a 30 gallon tank with 7 other fish and my angel fish is starting to look very dull has white stuff growing on him and his fins are rotting should i kill him now before he affects my other fish.
