Can you explain the part on not using melafix? I have been buying that
stuff by the gallons!

did these fish ever have little strings hanging from them? the chunks
missing is
typical of anchor worm. check the fish in the pond for anchor worm too.
Use anchors
away. it is dimilin and one treatment is residual for almost a month. it
is not
harmful to the fish. treat the wound on that fish topically starting with
cleaning
the wound out with peroxide and then rub in neosporin creme. run the temp
up to 84oF
with GOOD AERATION to treat the aeromonas bacteria. add 1 teas salt per 5
gallons.
continue to treat wound topically ... do not put in melafix. feel wound
to make sure
healing from inside out and is hard, no mushy underneath. Ingrid

Hi
I read this newsgroup often and really enjoy it. I also gained so much
just
from reading it.
I have posted before but was a while ago now.

The reason for my post is that I have a goldfish which has developed
sores
and wondered if some could take a look for me?
I have posted them here

This fish was in my pond last year and was overwintered in side as were
all my fish.
The rest of the fish are ponding right now.
He developed these this past week,
water tests perfect
any ideas?

Also i posted some pictures of my pond from last year
