Default Looking for Pond Health Tips

There is a med that will kill flukes in the pond, unfortunately in a pond
of your size it would cost $200+.

As far as trying to save one, starting with the salt dip was good, but the
other meds just add insult to injury. It would have been better, imho,
after the dip to hold the salt at 0.3% and keep the water pristine and just
wait. For fish that are common or far gone, fish them out and Finquel them. ~ jan


.... the 3% salt dip is done if the slime coat is thick, otherwise, a peroxide dip is
easy and gentle on individual fish and it kills dacs as well as gyros. doesnt do
anything to other kinds of parasite tho.
