Default Sick koi and need advice (with pics)


"Zëbulon"

The dumping of Koi and Goldfish is illegal over here even if they are
healthy....


That doesn't not apply to where I or the person who recommended the
illegal killing of protected birds live - the USA.




Releasing (dumping) non native fish in the U.S . is most certainly illegal
and punishable by a hefty fine.
Knowingly releasing diseased fish is a criminal act punishable by a fine
plus possible jail time.
Ecosystems have been devastated by the introduction of non-native species
and diseases to which native species have have no immunity.
