I recently posted a request for help with Flukes and would like to thank all
those that helped me out - the problem is gone - I think. However, on
waking up this morning I found I have a one year old koi doing spirals in
the centre of my pond. He seems to be bent slightly sideways and just
swimming round in tight circles. I can't see any signs of anything
physically wrong.
Any ideas please.
TIA

Check here and look up diseases. I think you will find the answer.

what did you use to treat the flukes? spiraling is neurotoxicity. if you used
droncit or praziquantal start changing water now and/or get some carbon into the
filter to soak it up. the only other thing to check is "whirling disease", not
common, but has been found in koi. Ingrid
