      Ulcer on gills

      I have a small koi with an ulcer on the gills. From what I have read , medicated food may take care of this. Can anyone comment on this.

      Bob, do you have any pics? How long has it been like this. Lets be sure it is an ulcer before treating it. Medicated food has very little anitbiotics in it. If it is an ulcer then Anitbiotic injections is the way to go. If you have no access to it them tri cide new also works and is more readily available without a vet. I have used both. Do you have a Q tank setup to seperate the fish? Also how big is the fish as sometimes when fish is small its really hard to get the dosage on target. Sorry for so many questions but it helps to have thsi info so others can jump in and help. Keo
