I just discovered that one of my larger fish has what appears to be a fungus
growing on both sides of him. It is greenish in color and covers almost 50%
of his sides.. The fish is not feeding and spending most of the time near
the surface, but at a correct attitude. Does any one have any idea what the
problem could be? Should I remove him from the other fish to prevent
spreading of what ever it is? And can I treat the entire pond with anti
parasite/antifungul agents (3500 gallons, about 75 fish) without fear of
harming the other fish? Thanks in advance, Bob

green is algae is secondary to bacterial infection which is secondary to thick slime
coat due to parasites or bad water. best is remove the fish to separate hospital
facility like a 100 gallon rubbermaid water tank.

start with a salt dip, treat with PP or formalin. aerate the water really well

better to not treat the whole pond BUT
if any other fish have anything on em, then do treat. this one could be spawning
injuries. Ingrid

Now losing Water like crazy! Lost 3 inches in 4 hours!

Does anyone know of a manufacturer of a drop in (fed up with liners)
resin pond with these specs: 8 feet long x 3 feet wide x 4 feet deep?
As others mentioned, sort of, turn off the waterfall, let the level
drop, your leak will be somewhere along that line. You can use milk
drops to track the leak as they will follow the water flow to the
point of loss.
If you did not put in a protective layer, rocks may be poking through
at any point. The madness may never stop!
You will not find a manufactured tank your size. You could consult
with local people who do spray truck bed liners. It can be done, but
the area must be completely extremely dry.


I never thought of the milk drops idea....great starting point, thank you!
