Default White spot found

Several koi are sulking and a couple have visible white spots. We have done a scrape on one of the sulkers and found a lot of white spot. We have treated tonight with F & M. Our problem is we are on holiday next week and cannot treat on Tuesday. Will it do any harm if we treat on Saturday then leave it until the following Saturday for the next treatment.

Recap - treat day 1, day 5, day 12 is trhis OK. Temp 16.5.

Incidentally, a scrape two weeks ago revealed tric but nothing else, we treated with PP once only. It turned brown after 41/2 hours.

Hi Alan,

It’s always the way things always go amiss and the wrong time: eek:

I am not sure on your dose rates but at your temps I would be treating on days 1, 7 & 13 but if you are going away there is not much you can do if you are going away on the Saturday make sure if you do treat you have enough time with the fish to make sure they will be OK just in case.

I think I would then assess when you get back and perhaps see how the fish are and do a scrape to see what going on before any more treatments and you never know you may be lucky.
