Re: Dermocystidium new treatment

Thanks again, Peter. I've got my fingers crossed too.

Re: Dermocystidium new treatment

Thanks for your comments. I will keep an eye out for infection; I've been lucky so far in avoiding any bacterial problems. It's interesting that this can be spread by frogs - I didn't know where this could have come from and I've spent some time wondering. Mind you, I don't believe I've had any amph...

Re: RO Systems

I'm very interested in this thread. I'm always keen to avoid wasting anything and Koi ponds are heavy on utility consumption, so any techniques to save water will be a good thing. I look forward to hearing more about these systems. My concerns are how all the solid waste in the water can be dealt wi...

Re: Dermocystidium new treatment

Hello all, I had a go at this on Saturday. It seemed to go OK, in fact in many ways it was more straight forward than the previous 2 treatments, and took less time. My main concern is whether I cut deep enough to remove all the infection. Perhapds the cauteriser will take care of that? I cut deep en...

Re: Dermocystidium new treatment

Thanks, Gazza. I picked up a couple of bits that I needed last night, just leaving the Orahesive powder to get hold of - it seems my local Chemist doesn't stock it, so its off to the 'Koi shop'. I will let you know how Saturday goes.

Cheers

Re: Dermocystidium new treatment

Thank you for the diagrams, these explain perfectly. I understand what is required.

I have a few bits to get hold of, if I can pick these up quickly I will attempt this on Saturday.

Cheers
