Hello
Not a med person
And I don't know how big your pond is and how many other fish you have.

But when treating it is always better to put the fish in a separate qt tank or small pool that is very clean and kept that way.
Some meds can mess up the good bacteria in a pond and if it is a big pond the meds won't be as efficient.

Plus it will be easier to keep a eye on the fish and make sure he is getting better.

If you can get a pic of the area that would help the kind folk here to help you.
