I have been loosing fish daily and I really need someones help. I am attaching pictures of several fish that have died. I just started taking pictures but i can upload more if needed. I currently have three fish now in a separate tank(preformed 70 Gallon pond) on the verge of death. They have red sides, a rough texture, and a slim/foam stuck to them. i can upload pictures if need (saying they actually make it through the night)
This all started when i walked out Thursday evening to feed my fish. I noticed one fish laying dead on the bottom. i pulled him out and did a 100% water change. the fish looked like it was shot with bb's he had hole like marks that where on the surface of his skin. I wish i would have taken pictures. the next day we examined all the fish and noticed that there sides where red. Almost like they were rubbing against the rocks. the bodies all look bruised and red have visible sores.
We again did a 100% water change and a 1pound of salt to 100 gallons of water. the next day my butterfly fish (named the Googol fish) was acting strange, i took him out and put him in a smaller pond (preformed pond) i put him in a salt water solution for one hour (1 pound salt (solar salt) to 100 gallons of water) then ran out got Medi-koi food and Melafix made by API pond.left him in that over night. i forced fed him the food basically put the food right in front of his moth with my hand (not really forcing). he ate a little. he died...
i lost another two today both in a fresh water and Melafix solution based on manufacture recommendations. all my fish are starting to act up and have body damage. i have been feeding them for the past few day only MEDI-KOI food and have done another 100% water change. they are all in a manufacture recommended MELAFIX solution. I have added chlorine & heavy metal neutralizer, done water test (no nitrite 0, ammonia 1.5 - 2, phosphate .25, PH 8.0, chlorine zero, water temp 60 degrees) water was changed 3-4 hours ago water test done at 8/23/15 at 12:55am. Some fish are eating others are not the fish that are in really bad shape have not been eating and we have been hand feeding them.
Please help me I am willing to do what ever it takes to stop seeing my fish dye at a rate of two fish per day. I have tried everything i know how to do and have researched to do. i have added air stones to my pond to pump up oxygen, i have been feeding fish Medi_Koi food, putting in Melafix, doing water changes, water test, i have been holding off on All season pond bacteria (as of right now) Please i beg you help someone. i am willing to do whats needed.
