Ulcer/ open wound on koi
Hey I'm having a serious problem with one of my koi.
He had a small ulcer on top his head approximately 2 months ago which progressively got worse. It's deepening and spreading accross his head.
Water parameters are good, tried adding salt to the pond, the wound changed colour for a bit but no improvement.
Tried a weeklong course of melafix 2 weeks ago and now the ulcer seems to developing a tumour of some sort.
All other koi in the pond are fine. The affected fish is eating and swimming around as if in perfect health. Any assistance here would be greatly appreciated.

So my first big dog has started...
Cheers for that. I’ve told him don’t use Trench blocks. Biggest advantage we have is it’s solid...
