Cheers pal…it’s doing my head in! All seems ok but one fish sat on bottom fins clamped, this one was fine before the treatment! I’ll do a scrape tomorrow and see if it’s done the trick, hopefully it’s just the flukes now 🙏🏻
Isn't it relieving and satisfying to PP in your pond 🤣 also wasn't paying attention to the first part as I was watching the dog 🐶 lick its bits in the window 😱🤣
Hi Jason, great vlog again. It’s a shame about the parasites but hopefully get it sorted soon. I’m the same with the grow and show as mine was to be delivered. Don’t know where you are but my pond temp yesterday was 5.2 here in Colne Lancashire. I was contacted yesterday and they are going to keep my showa a few weeks till my temperature rises a bit 🤦♂️. Also I’m going to France 🇫🇷 first time ever in May after being postponed 2 years cause of Covid. Great to see Badger on your Koi channel Lol 😂. Keep up the great work and thanks for sharing 👍🐟🎣
Hi mate, thanks for watching! I’m at a steady 9 degrees which is mainly due to the insulation in the pond and having the filters in the filter house but still it’s a bit of a drop when the fish have come from heated so defo a good idea for you to wait, that’ll be a huge drop and asking for issues if you have it early! Yeah this France trip was cancelled twice too, going ahead this time though, I can’t bloody wait and obviously there be a video out on my carp channel 🙏🏻
@@bezzaskoichannel3856 same here M8, buzzing for France 🇫🇷. I had a quick one day fishing locally but weather not too good yet. Looking forward to seeing your France vlog. Take care M8 and hopefully meet you on the bank one day Lol 👍🎣
ive got flukes too. get them every year. luckily i just did a scrape out of curiosity on one that seemed to have a small bacteria infection. no flashng, all swimming around and eating/ water tip top. just goes to show how much attention you need to take watching your koi. hope you get it sorted.
Yeah I’ve had them every year but never used to worry about it! This is why some of my older fish are unhealthy! I’m trying to get them back healthy as much as possible now that I have learnt a little 🙏🏻
@@bezzaskoichannel3856 in my experience lernex pro is the best but every ponds different and the blighters seem to adapt. that said i had to dose with fluke m as i had some left over. it worked but they did seem to come back. flukesolve failed misserably for me. just something you have to live with and be ready to treat i reckon.
@@matcrutch1 yeah I’ve used fluke M last year, didn’t work! This year I’ll use up what I have of that then try the Lernex pro and see if that does the job 🙏🏻
I share your despair Buddy. Just another part of the hobby to keep us on our toes. Hope you've got them under control, and be sure to get the costia identified asap if you do have them, once they take hold it can very quickly wipe out the pond, especially as the water is warming. Take care bud👍
Hi mate, I’m pretty sure I saw costia even with my old eyes! The PP should hopefully do the trick but I’ll be scraping again in couple of days to see if they’re gone! If so I can start on the fluke! Hopefully I’ll have better luck than last year, they were proper stubborn so may try the lernex pro 🙏🏻
Hi, there’s many ways, fish can get parasites from others bringing them into the pond! If they grow naturally in a pond and can latch onto fish, especially ones will low immune! It’s just part of koi keeping, it’s a battle every year 🤷♂️
Yeah I don’t want any issues now that I’ve spent so much on the pond, really wanna improve on my knowledge and experience so keeping on top of things is key I think! Thanks for watching mate 🙏🏻
@@bezzaskoichannel3856 Do yourself a favour and complete more scraps over the next couple of weeks as pp can knock the costia back but doesn’t always eradicate them with one dose.
Good Luck in resolving the parasites 🦠 Buddy, one of the most frustrating parts of our hobby my friend 👍

Lol yeah very! He’s always licking his bits, especially when the camera is on 😂
Dope set up bro…. Thanks 4 sharing… I’m having problems with a few of my koi as well
Cheers mate…I don’t think I’ve ever been without problems..even now the weather keeps going really cold, no good for the immune system 🙏🏻
Nice update there, shame about the parasites. But i guess as we come out of winter into spring then this is more prone.
Get them treated mate.
Nice one, cheers pal 🙏🏻

Everyone goes through it at some point mate. Seems like your on top of it…. And summers only round the corner now 👍🏼
I hope it gets sorted with this dose so I can concentrate on the fluke as last year I couldn’t shift them! 🙏🏻

Time of year mate they either come or don't seem to be on top of it. 👌👍👍
See if I can sort them out this year 🙏🏻
Out of curiosity…. How do they catch the disease ? Is it something that’s introduced into the pond by accident? Cheers

@@bezzaskoichannel3856 i think slugs can transmit them too and birds which is a bit tricky to prevent?
Costia are the worst mate they can wipe the pond out in a couple of weeks in warmer water it’s a good job your vigilant.👌

@@paulkirkbride2156 yeah mate I’m gonna do them until I’m happy they’re gone! Cheers for the advice 🙏🏻
I've just found flukes today myself mate it's a pain in the bum
I wouldn’t mind just flukes mate, I got a full house of bloody parasites 🤦
@@bezzaskoichannel3856 yeh bless ya well at least 4 hours of PP and the first 2 are gone 👍 it's the flukes that are a pain in the backside
@@keepingitkoi I really hope so mate, knowing my luck there still be there 🤦
