Summer News 2019

Well what a mixed bag of weather for the summer. High temperatures followed by persistent rain! This has brought a number of issues and caused some havoc in ponds up and down the country. We have had a large number of call outs to poorly koi.

Perfect Parasite Weather

With the ups and downs in the temperatures it has been ideal conditions fro the parasites to get a head start on the fish. Whilst the route cause for parasites entering a healthy pond is subject to much discussion, it is a fact that we should check our fish routinely (observation is key) for unusual behavior or a change in appearance. Mucus samples (known as scraps) are easy to complete and identify accurately the parasite(s) present and then an accurate treatment can be advised or administered. I cannot advise trying a ‘blind’ treatment as there is no one size fits all solution. If you require advice or wish to use our health check services please contact us.
