I have a shiro utsuri koi which has developed a red spot on the white
part of him. About the size of a pencil eraser. Would anybody know what
it could be & how to treat if need be..

Thanks


You'll need to treat it. Since this is a scaled fish the wound may be worst
than it is. IME, sores from shore are 10 times worst up front and personal.
Check out www.AKCA.org find a local koi club in your area, if possible,
they may have trained KHAs (Koi Health Advisors) that can help you out,
