Hi,
I noticed a fish in the pond today that looked very unhealthy, with Algae growing on his back in a thick matt.
When i removed him from the pond for a salt bath i noticed that the Gill flap on one side of him was completely missing, and he looked generally in poor shape, so i decided to put him out of his misery.
I've got one other fish that has the algae growing on the back, but it's just a light covering at the moment, nothing like this guy, and the fish is swimming around normally which means haven't caught him yet.
Here's a couple of pics of the dead fish.
Has anyone seen stuff like this before?
cheers,
Andy.
