Hi, Koi-Lo, I feel like you know me :-) Yes, its the one that is
sitting in the middle of the tank. I noticed, this morning, that she
looks like around 4-5 of her scales are 'missing'. The aren't together
but in different areas of her body. The look like bald patches. Then
I noticed that (please excuse the bad terminology) one side of her
tail has 'gone'. Her tail is like a butterfly shape (she is ryukin).
Where the top joins the bottom to make butterfly shape, one side is
nicely joined but the other now looks like it is in '2 halves'. I hope
you can picture this as I know I'm not describing this at all well.
She has a gorgeous white pearl colour and I wandered it was tail rot
whether I would be able to see it as clearly as I did when it was on my
black moor. I am about to move her into a quarantine tank and just
observe closely with daily water changes. I'm currently aging some
water and have put an airstone in there. I've also put some stress
coat in help with the stress of moving. I'm at a loss as to what to do
with her. I've grown so attached to my 4 goldfish. She really isn't
her 'old self'. The other 3 are doing well and I've checked their fins
and tails but can see no sign of recessing.

Any help soooo greatfully recieved.
Thanks Melllie


I can't see anything wrong with that fish.
