Hole in the head disease
I have a Koi that yesterday looked fine. Today he has noticeable mark on his
forehead that looks like a small crater. Does anyone know if Koi are susceptible to hole in the head disease? This was the first thing that popped into my head having had Oscars for some time. This is a rather large thing though. It looks almost like he ran into something. My water parameters are very good. Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks, San Diego Joe 4,000 - 5,000 Gallons. Koi, Goldfish, and RES named Colombo. |
Could a bird have tried to stab it?
I had a egret try to take one of mine and he put a hole in it. Priss "San Diego Joe" wrote in message ... I have a Koi that yesterday looked fine.

I don't think so. The wound isn't that deep. It looks like someone took a 3" nail and stamped his head with the non pointy end. San Diego Joe 4,000 - 5,000 Gallons.

I had this on my koi... dumbass ran right into a rock on a quick turn. Left a nice mark for a few days. Carl -- -- http://www.cobaltbluefilms.com |
