That is too bad. Hurts to lose fish you like.

Bummer.

Let us know how the others do.

"Just Me "Koi"" wrote in message

Well guys, the Koi gods must not like me because I use that word in my
name
or something.

91 degrees outside today, so I went out to my pond to visit my pond and
Koi.
The main pond had emptied because of a clog in my bio-filter.

But that was half my problem.

Went to my larger pond, I was worried about one of my beautiful Koi.
He/she
is about 18 inches long, ogon with gold markings. It was sitting at the
bottom of the pond with it's fin clamped to it's side. Anyway, took it
out
and went to the local pond gurus! The thing had ulcer on it's tails,
fins,
etc. Had to put it to sleep. What a bummer!

I also have perhaps the most beautiful Sanke alive, about 18-20 inches
long
with some fin problems, it kind of favors one of it's fins. I have to
catch
it tomorrow and see what the problem is. This unreal California summer in
winter weather and the stress of Koi-ing really really bites!

I'll let you know how the other Koi are doing after close examination
tomorrow.
