    Microscope favour?

    Hi guys I'm new to all this and I think there may be a parasite problem in my pond, the parameters seem ok from my test kit but the fish keep flicking and a few look very lethargic. I havnt got a microscope but was just wondering if anyone was in the Halesowen/Birmingham area and could help me out diagnosing the issue? May be a long shot but
    Thanks guys

    I know it's not ideal but ag the minute I catch and take mine to local dealers that help me out if no one is close by you it may be worth a shot if your local will help . If it comes to that take a couple fish just to make sure with the scrapes

    You could see if Duncan or one of his guys could come out to you since you're kind of in that neck of the woods.
    He would be the ideal person to learn from if you have the budget for that.
