Urgent.. Koi Ulcers... I have no Potasium Prag...
I could not get potassium permaganate.. Something else was mention was to
use iodine on the area.. I could get neithier tonight at the local pharmacy.. This is what I got, and I am thinking it might not hurt..Povidone Iodine.. Which is the typical surgical prep stuff.. If someone can give me an answer back ASAP I would appreciate it.. This Koi have cost me a lot of money and I need to get them back to health ... TIA... Tim |

The plumbing supply... Anyone have a clue to what kind of rate and with what I can mix the stuff with so I can apply it correctly? I used the prov Iodine yesterday to clean the ulcers up a bit.. To my surprise they are not dead yet, although the ulcer's were bad enough to expose bone for the fin's... This happened so quickly, and I do hope I have caught it in time. The Koi are still fairly active, and they are young ones, hopefully they find their will to get over the ulcers..I will retreat the area again with the provodine iodine today and for the 5 following days to see if I can save them.. Lordy knows they cost me $10 a piece and my cars motor on the way home from the farm.. Tim |

Hey Ingrid, did you catch my reply in the other group about these fish...??
I think I am going to try the route I have taken.. I do hope the finnage will grow back even though some bone material is exposed.. The redness has resided ( there is some red inflmation still present ) since I used the Provodone Iodine last night.. This has made me feel a lot better for the fish' condition.. I presume the Isopropel Alc is to neutrealize the PP right.. Not the Provodine Iodine ( in this case it is 10% Iodine )..

Whether it is iodine or PP, one treatment is usually all that is needed. It
burns the wound, in effect cauterizing it. Follow up treatment should be done with a topical first aid treatment, like A&D ointment. -- RichToyBox http://www.geocities.com/richtoybox/pondintro.html "T" wrote in message nk.net...

Opps. I went and gave the wounds another wipe with the Iodine... They
should be ok I would think.. Next time I will use A&D or perhaps should I use Polysporin?? Tim "RichToyBox" wrote in message news:vLcrc.14813$zw.3887@attbi_s01...

vaseline base is ointment and doesnt release the meds fast enough. it is counter
intuitive, but creme works better on fish. Ingrid "T" wrote: Cream Okies.. I have the A and D.. I also have the other one , both are in the form of a vasaline type..

If your treatment doesn't work, I highly recommend the treatment of
Tricide-Neo. http://www.pondrx.com/shop/listing.php?parentId=30 Worked for me. Best way is have fish in easily accessible salted Q-tank, koi sock-net them out and into bag filled with meds, wait the time allowed 5 minutes, net them out and back into Q-tank. ~ jan See my ponds and filter design: http://users.owt.com/jjspond/ ~Keep 'em Wet!~ Tri-Cities WA Zone 7a To e-mail see website |

Neither Fish made it, after the areas cleared a bit, they developed dropsy..
They died within a few hours of me noticing their secondary illness.. Unfortunantely them dieing was only the icing on cake for the whole time I had them.. ( a short time mind you ).. On my way back in from the fish farm, I blew the engine in my car.. So by them time I am finished totalling my bills of getting these guys, I am now out just over $1500.. That is the part that stings the most.. Although I am open for donations for some help to get my cars motor replaced.. If you think you can help me, you can get a hold of me here.. Tim...
