Gazza, extremely sorry to hear about the loss of your Koi.

Re: Severe growth on tail

Thanks Glenn, the fish has now fully recovered with carp pox gone & tail fin regrown back to normal.

This was one of my earliest fish, purchased from Koi Polloi @ 2" long & despite imperfect husbandry in its early years is still growing.
