Hi dckoi welcome to the site ;) from what i can see it does look like carp pox is it soft and waxy or hard have you any photos of your other fish you say have it :?:

these look to me like tumors are they growing out of the koi or on the koi :?:

they can be removed thou unless your heated i would leave this untill the spring or summer as the healing temps are not with us at the moment.

I would say they are growing from the koi rather than on it.
