Default Help Needed - Koi

Hi,

I will try to post a pic later but just like to know if it is common for a koi to have something like an eye infection?. I was outstation and only got home today and my wife told me that the white color koi we have seems to have an eye infection, just on one eye. The eye looks like swollen.

Any way to treat it?

I also managed to drain off about 1/4 of the water in the pond and flushed the 3 chambers to clean out all the dirts/feaces. Thanks

From what u saying it look like ur fish having cloudy eye!!If u can QT the fellow in a spare tank it may be able to save the fellow....If u wan u can go to LFS and get some med for cloudy eye. if not u can add some yellow powder and heater to the QT tank.

What other fish are you keeping with it? Best is to show pictures of it, so we may help. It can be a injury or worst case is infected eye that may dropped out.

Looks like it got an injury on the eye and now it is infected. If u bring it to a koi dealer of yr choice, i believe they will give a jab and maybe treat the eye of possible.
