Urgent.. Koi Ulcers... I have no Potasium Prag...

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 )..

and have plain old drugstore peroxide on hand to neutralize when treatment
is done.
get some romet B antibiotic to help the fish. http://dandyorandas.com/

Now there's an idea... 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..
