lower your salt to 0.1% and I think the thick slime coat may disappear and the thick
covering over the eye too. I wouldnt clip or cut anything right now. Ingrid

If I can bring myself to clip and drain this "cover" (and overcome the

afterwards or put anything in the water? Or will the salt just help it
along? And just a small cut, right, or remove a lot of it? When you
have a chance, could you ask your Koi club if they think this a
reasonable/safe approach?

Thanks,
