    New NEED HELP PLS

    Hi all i am new to site and finding my way round a bit confusing lol ... anyway i have been keeping koi for around 3 yrs now and never had a problem until recently .. last week i noticed a couple of my koi sulking and probably stupidly thought it was calming down period from a medication i gave acraflvine ... anyway a couple of days later i find my new addition with quite bad fin rot .
    Cant believe i had nt spotted it before but upon closer inspetion i noticed that a couple of others also ahow signs of finrot and one of my smallest koi looked like it had been eaten across the lower back .
    I salt bathed all koi in a qt tank and used acraflavine .... i have done 400 gallon water changes daily for past wèek and still had no reprieve ....
    i have tested water and everything is fine .. i had this double checked at a local koi place and again no causes for concern ..... so to clarify i have fineot and a couple have a raised sore with a lifted scale and i have noticed some white raised almost furry looking spot on one koi .

    Im starting to worry something is seriously wrong here . So any ideas or help would be appreciated .
    Regards
    Richie

    Hi like to introduce myself, I am a long sufferer of having a badly built pond that I built 20 years ago and I am now going to dig out and upgrade. You have a good forum here as I have being lurking on it to glean some good advice on what to do right this time out.

    Good evening all! Newbie here to the scene! Stated literally few months back with a Koi bath. Over the August bank holiday weekend I decided that I needed bigger to start properly. So I built a raised 8ftx 4ft pond using railway sleepers and a liner. ! Only issue I Have is no Bottem drain maybe next year I need to install maybe ? Im
    Running a Nexus Easy pod as my
    Filter and a UV. Have about 20 fish in there all Seems well So far. My plan to hopefully see my first winter out then see how it goes from There

    Wecome mate. Have a great time.
    Lots of parameters checks.
    New pond syndrome. And all that.
    Can take a couple of years for pond and filters to mature. Keep testing the water. Fred

    I get my
    API Freshwater Master Test Kit from ebay

    make sure its the one above master. as that does high PH as well as low PH
    on my pond I always have an 8 PH. so it is highish

    there you go mate
    https://www.ebay.co.uk/p/Aquarium-Fr...d=151555892492

    also if you trickle in and out. or water changes. most of us use
    Sodium Thiosulphate 500g - 99% Pure Crystals Aquarium Dechlorinator High Grade
    fleabay as well. use this for water changes lasts ages. I buy 2x bags ago. and lasts me about a year.
    here https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Sodium-Th...53.m2749.l2649
    hope this helps stuart
    fred
