    Hi and Welcome Andy.

    Could you post some more details about the pond size, detailed test results, filtration, pond maintenance, stocking, feed amounts and any recent changes you have made (treatments, new fish etc).

    Can you scrape and scope any of the other fish?

    Good to know there is another forum member in Newbury

    Hi Andy unfortunately you need to get a scrape done somehow on the chagoi, as I have noticed over the years, one koi can be ill and the others fine, this includes carrying parasites, Its a shame I don't live closer as I would definatly have popped over to help you

    If any treatment needed I have to treat the pond as I do not have space to treat one fish
