Thank you! So - I need to wait for the oil to arrive before I sedate, but I was able to bowl the fish this morning and I can confirm that it does scrape off. It appears to leave a bit of a mark and there was a tiny amount of blood under the small area I scratched off. Treated with some salt as the fish held still and released back to the pond. I will work on all the spots when I am able to fully sedate the fish.
I was able to get a look at all the other fish in my pond, and it appears 2 (maybe 3) others have similar spots. Would it be recommended to salt my entire pond for a few weeks? I have never added salt before to my pond and everything I read on it seems mixed. Thoughts?
Edit - Would a salt dip to .6 for 10 min accomplish anything?
Thank you again.
