      Exclamation Koi was laying on side at bottom of pond

      My Shiro is my problem fish, if there's something wrong with the pond he's the first to show me.

      I've seen a number of them flashing over the last day or two, and today he was laying on his side at the bottom of the pond. He got upright once i tried to net him and hasn't done it since but clearly not happy.

      It looks like there's a split in his fin and it appears red so i'm thinking bacterial.

      I've scraped 5 fish, found nothing to worry about, the scrapes are clean.

      PH : 8.4
      Ammonia: 0
      Nitrite: 0
      Nitrate: 18ppm
      GH: 10

      I've put some chrolarime T in to reduce bacterial levels, and will continue doing this for another 3 days unless anyone else has any suggestions?

      Pics should hopefully be included.

      Thank you
