This is from a friend who is trying to help a friend of his with this dilema. His words...
"The koi in question are suffering from large ulcers (ranging from the size of a dime to a quarter), and 2 have had popeye, (1 died). The pH is about 8, nitrites and ammonia levels are zero. They have been treated by salt pasting the ulcers, and by Oxolium baths. Since the oxolium baths, the ulcers have gotten larger.
Although I am quite proficient at filtration, I'm finding myself at a loss as to what to recommend at this point other than a partial water change and prayer
Can we get a concencious as to what to do?"
