Koi waving tail
I have a Koi that has just started waving its tail out of the water.
At first we thought it was digging in a plant pot and the tail just happened to be at the surface, out of the water. However, today, we took a closer look and there isn't a pot!! Has anyone else seen this?

Maybe it has an itch? Which might mean a parasite. Which means I'm out of my league but others know that kind of stuff. Take a close look at the tail, make notes. k30a

Koi waving tail
Are you sure its mouth isn't on the bottom snacking on goodies? Mine do
head stands all the time.... in fact, they prefer this to other postures - But, they are snacking away on (unseen by me) pond treats.

If the fish is permanently swimming like this, suspect a disorder of the
swim bladder. Mike (uk) "Nedra" wrote in message link.net... Are you sure its mouth isn't on the bottom snacking on goodies?

Not always swimming like this .... just when they see
goodies on the bottom that have to be eaten. ;-) Nedra http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Pines/4836 http://community.webshots.com/user/nedra118 "Mouse" wrote in message . ..
