My koi has white pimples on its tail! Help !!

Postby Mickey10mk » Wed Aug 03, 2011 11:43 am

Hi! I need some help, one of my butterfly koi recently developed these white pimples on its tail fin, then on its body it has green slime on parts of its bottom fin and top fin.
I have separated it into a hospital tank, in the tank i have added some salt and got a air filter in there going and also bought "Anchor Worm" treatment and have been doing that, its day 2 now and its seems to be improving, does anyone know whats wrong or have and experience with this ?
Im thinking to use clove oil to sedate the fish then try to scrape off the pimples and fungus things ?
Anyone with any ideas ? Attached is a few photos of whats wrong !
Help please !!

As i have spoke to you via our live chat system i advise you continue with the coarse of anchor worm treatment you have but please be careful of the salt level in your tank .

hi there ,,

sorry i have only just seen this thread ,

as koi master said it looks like a little white spot ,,

this could be because of temp flux due to a large water change or even hi amonia

i always treat with aqua safe and a half dose of para pure when water changing thumright

hope the koi is better now thumright
