We have a white koi that has a small red spot or maybe you could say a
red streak. Should I be concerned or is there something I should do. We
had ulcer on a koi 4 wks. ago but that seems to be cured with lymnozyme
& medicated food.

============================
Keep using the Lymno-Zyme and medicated food. I assume the water quality in
your pond is good.

should I double the dose of lymnozyme for a few days?

=================================
It wouldn't hurt, and turn off any UV light you may have as it kills the
good bacteria along with the bad. If you don't see an improvement a week
you may want to catch this fish and paint the spot with Iodine or Methiolate
once or twice. Although some of our fish had bad ulcers, all healed with
the Lymno-Zyme alone.

I have no uv light. Fish would be hard to catch. So I hope lymnozyne
does the job. Thanks.........
