Dermocystidium

Post by DaveB »

A friend of mine has just showed me a photo of one of his koi. I also think one of my koi might have the same ailment but have not lifted her at the mo. When you zoom in you can clearly see a few red spots. Just wondering if this is the first signs of Dermocystidium and not just carp pox. Your thoughts would be much appreciated. Best Regards Dave
