It's not oxygen. I have a Sequence 7200 with a nice, full waterfall and
none of the other fish are doing this. Tons of water coming off the
waterfall, in fact. What I did not tell you was that this fish has some odd
tumors growing on him that the koi store said were sunburn - and that short
of surgery, there was nothing I could do. Pond is actually very healthy
with crystal clear water and 20% water changes every week. I could toss
some Paraside Green into the pond to clear out any parasites.... good idea?

Gasping koi, especially the larger one(s), is usually O2. Did you have the
pet store test your water while you were there? A fish with fried gills or
parasitic invasion of the gills, could be doing the same thing regardless
of dissolved oxygen in the water. ~ jan
