Default Sick koi and need advice (with pics)

lymphocystis ... http://www.glfc.org/tumor/f12.gif
I have one with it, none of my others got it since 1999, so isnt too contagious. I
have seen carp in the Hudson river with huge carp pox around the mouth, very healthy
otherwise. Ingrid

Lymphocystis... more commonly called Carp Pox or it could be columaris....

They can be contagious, but not easily. Usually, if Carp Pox they get
better or go away when the season changes and the water warms up, only to
come back in the fall. Do a search on those things and then decide your
course of treatment. ~ jan
