Some time ago we were introduced by a dear friend of ours to a product called Koi clear Gel , interested so what is it that makes this the holy grail of ulcer Treatments ?
Koi clear Gel is a blend of natural vegetable oils that have been infused with Ozone gas. The Ozone transforms the oils into a gel, similar to Vaseline in consistency and Ozone is effectively trapped in the oils in the form of Tri-ozonide compounds. At room temperature, Ozone is gradually released from the gel, so to increase shelf life and to retain its effectiveness the Gel should be stored in a refrigerator.

When required for a topical application, remove from refrigerator and allow to reach room temperature so that the gel becomes softer. In practice we find it best to place the tub of gel in a cup or beaker of hot tap water for 2 – 3 minutes which will start to soften some of the gel quickly and change the consistency into a thick clear oil. Avoid overheating the gel as this will shorten its shelf life.

The secret of success is to get the consistency of the gel just right for application – too thick and the gel will be difficult to apply correctly and it will not adhere adequately to the Koi. As a thick oil it will be easy to apply and will adhere well and spread well over the affected area.

Sedate the Koi in the normal way, clean and dry the affected area. Remove all dead and necrotic tissue and apply the gel to the area with your finger or a cotton bud. The gel will not adhere adequately if it is too solid when applied or if the affected area is not dry.

The Gel does not dry on the surface but will stay oily. Resuscitate the Koi and return to the pond as normal. Note* If you use your fingers to apply the gel, do not put your fingers back in the gel pot after applying to the Koi. If you need to repeat the treatment on more than one Koi, or more than one area on a Koi, we suggest you use a cotton bud or similar to avoid contaminating the gel in its container.

If you use you fingers for applying the gel note that it will stay active and effective on your skin for some time, even after washing, as the coating is absorbed by the skin almost like a hand cream. Therefore if you find the smell of ozone unpleasant, use a cotton bud or similar for applying to the Koi.

When correctly applied, the area treated will normally be seen to go almost white within 24 hours as the gel kills the pathogens infecting the wound area. This will enable the Koi’s own immune system to begin the process of tissue regeneration which cannot start until the wound area is clean and free from infectious agents.

Once the wound area has changed colour, it is advisable not to touch it again or re-apply any topical treatment, other than agents such as spray propolis or similar, so that any new tissue that has started to form to cover the wound will not be damaged

After two aplications your koi will be fully healed Max who first told me about this suggests also that once youv'e applied the treatment wrap the koi in cling film for one minute prior to realsing in the pond
We strongly recomend this product remember though it must be kept in fridge when not in use.
Do not put melted gel back in pot
This product comes in a 50ml pot Max says it should treat up to 50 koi .
The reveiws we got off the South African site we introduced the gel to was 100% good feedback from all who bought it
Weve since found that this gel can cure other problems such as damage where you have an open wound with infection.
Here is the link you need for it , they will export but you need to bulk buy for the US and further afield :-
