Having said that, if you have a quarantine
tank (you can always set up one with a 50-gallon rubbermaid tub), I would
remove all of the fish from that pond, and treat them in the quarentine
tank for bacterial infections. I don't know if they are available in the
UK, but if you can get them, ..........
=============================
Allow me to remind him/her to check the water for ammonia constantly in any
hospital tanks or holding tanks. It builds up in hours in warm weather,
especially if antibiotics are being used. When we did this hospital-tank
number a few years ago to treat ulcers (before we knew about Lymno-Zyme) I
had to do 75% water changes twice a day - quite a job in the summer heat.
All 16 died anyway. The Shop where we bought them replaced all the fish
that died for all his customers and switched wholesalers.
