      Were the remaining fish piping at the surface when you walked in on them?

      Nope just a little lathargic - I'm going to pull a couple to scrape and scope.
      I haven't added any fish for over a year so I donno how but maybe with the stressors
      Possible parisite multiply.

      They know my vibrations when I walk on the deck this time of year they all swim fast
      To run to the edge to see me ( for food) they are acting more like it is winter. Couple flash once in a while
      Couple clamped fins once in a while but a few hours later they are swimming normal.

      Sorry if I missed it but what is the kh or your tap water? Normally* around this time of the year, do you get ph swings? Normally* is this typical of your pond kh level this time of the year? You don't normally add baking soda do you?

      Be sure to check the gills too for any discoloration.

      Gills

      Water quality a little better -
      Still a lot of doc floating ( I recently added a Bakki shower this could be from
      The feather rock) -
      With gills if they were burnt it's been a month now I think they would have passed
      But with that said - All the fish that were discolored skin etc are healing up

      What do you want me to check gills for ? Burn ?

      Thanks
      Alex

      Usually the gills will have brown or grey patches or blotches, or may look splitted if there's an issue.
      Gills sometimes never heal.

      I thought this old thread had some good pictures of gill examples:
