No, we’re not meaning the Pond Doc when we say we are taking a closer look at parasites. We’re taking a closer look at those itchy little things that live on our fish and can make them sick. Parasites are found everywhere - in the food we eat and in our everyday living spaces. Some of them won’t hurt a thing and can be beneficial. The ones we’re attacking are the ones that are bad and cause problems for our pets with fins.

Parasites","\u003Cp\u003EA Closer Look at Parasites\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u002F\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003ENo, we’re not meaning the Pond Doc when we say we are taking a closer look at parasites. We’re taking a closer look at those itchy little things that live on our fish and can make them sick. Parasites are found everywhere - in the food we eat and in our everyday living spaces. Some of them won’t hurt a thing and can be beneficial. The ones we’re attacking are the ones that are bad and cause problems for our pets with fins.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u002F\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EIt’s not Flash Dancing, it’s called “Flashing” when your fish rub themselves against the sides or bottom of your pond. They often take a running start and dive up out of the water and down to the bottom of the pond in a single fluid movement. The first time we saw this “dance” we thought they were playing. Not so. They are itching and trying to find a tree to rub against. In most cases flashing indicates that they have some sort of parasite.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u002F\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe itching is only the beginning of the trouble parasites cause our fish. Fish often injure themselves by scraping against sharp rocks or other objects. They may lose scales during their “flash dance”. Some parasites pierce the skin of the fish and suck out blood. Once the skin of the fish is broken, the fish become susceptible to opportunistic Aeromonas and Psuedomonas bacteria that enter through the wound or pinhole and cause havoc. Many times you’ll think we’re crazy for treating the fish for parasites when they obviously have an ulcer or other bacterial infection. The reason we do that is because the bacterial infection is most often a \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fphparea.com\u002Fblog\u002Fhow-to-pass-a-condition-to-an-postgresql-query-in\" class=\"auto-link\" target=\"_blank\"\u003Esecondary condition caused\u003C\u002Fa\u003E by the parasite. You must get rid of the cause before you can get rid of the infection.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u002F\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EAll parasites are attracted to the soft (and yummy) tissues of the fish’s gills which leads us to another tell-tell sign that your fish may be infested with parasites. Gill Flukes, for example, are notorious for damaging the gills. If the fish’s gills are damaged he will have difficulty breathing and may hang out by the water return or gulp at the surface of the water.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u002F\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe only sure way to diagnose whether your fish have parasites and, most importantly, what kind of parasite is present is to have a mucus scraping done by a vet. Without a vet's diagnosis we choose to simply treat the pond as if we knew it had both Flukes and Ick. Not all parasites will respond to one type of treatment. Only a few of the microscopic parasites are treated with non-iodized salt while others such as Costia, Flukes, Fish Lice and Anchor Worm require a different mode of treatment. If a mucus scraping cannot be performed you are forced to “shoot from the hip” and treat for both. Our Parasite Pak helps simplify that process.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u002F\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003ELet's take a closer look at the parasites that affect koi and goldfish:\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u002F\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Ch2\u003EIch (Ichthyophthirius multifilis)\u003C\u002Fh2\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u002F\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003ENo doubt you’ve heard of Ich. In advanced stages you can see it with the naked eye. It looks like little white spots that eat away at the base of the fins and cluster around the gill openings. In early stages it takes a microscope to see these “circles” that move round and round. Inside the circle is a nucleus shaped like a horse shoe. We don’t want to wait for Ich to get so bad that it can be seen without the microscope. Ich kills — preferring goldfish to the bulkier koi, but still a threat to koi as well. This is only one of two parasites that we still can eradicate with high doses of salt. Many of the others have lost their sensitivity to salt.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u002F\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Ch2\u003EChilodinella\u003C\u002Fh2\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u002F\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003Eaka "Killer Don". This deadly little fellow likes cold water. He flourishes in water temperatures lower than what is needed for the fish’s immunity system to kick in, making it more dangerous to the fish during the cooler months of spring. In fact, most parasites are considered cold water inhabitants. When it’s alive, Chilodinella is shaped like an elongated heart. When dead, Chilodinella is perfectly round with what appears to be air bubbles inside. This is the other parasite that still can be treated with salt.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\t \t\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Ch2\u003ECostia\u003C\u002Fh2\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u002F\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003ECostia is another parasite that is active in cold water. Costia has been found in water just above freezing. This is a tiny parasite, even in microscopic terms, but it’s affect on fish when allowed to infest a pond is not so tiny. If left unchecked Costia could wipe out a whole pond of fish. Costia is the first of the parasites that we've seen become immune to the effects of salt. Alternative methods of treatment are now necessary.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u002F\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Ch2\u003ETrichodina\u003C\u002Fh2\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u002F\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EQuite an interesting subject to view under the power of a microscope, Trichodina looks like tiny parasols or flying saucers. Good news. Trichodina isn’t as bad as the rest and normally just makes the fish itch. Bad news. It does help introduce bad bacteria into the internals of the fish. As we pointed out earlier, itching causes the fish to scratch (or flash) and the fish can lose scales or puncture its protective skin and mucus coat, allowing harmful bacteria to enter the body. Trichodina thrives in the muck in the bottom of the pond. Thorough pond cleanings should eliminate the threat of this parasite. This parasite used to be able to be treated with salt but, like Costia, is now immune and has to be treated by other medications.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\t \t\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Ch2\u003EFlukes\u003C\u002Fh2\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u002F\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EOh, the dreaded Flukes. Under the microscope Flukes appear to be tubes that move like slinkies with funny-looking heads at one end. Flukes are one of the most common and dangerous parasites. They actually carry Aeromonas and Pseudomonas bacteria which are responsible for causing sometimes incurable ulcers in fish. And -- flukes are very fertile. Once you get rid of the adults you must re-treat to get the babies that have hatched. Salt will not touch flukes.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\t\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Ch2\u003EAnchor Worm\u003C\u002Fh2\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u002F\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThese are big enough to see with the naked eye. They look like a worm hanging off the side of the fish. They attach themselves and hang on for dear life. We don’t suggest taking a pair of tweezers and pulling them off because you can leave the head of the Anchor Worm in the fish and the Anchor Worm will survive. In 9 years we've only seen perhaps 3 or 4 cases of anchor worm. The most recent was in our own brand new pond and how they got there -- we simply do not know! \t \t \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\t \t\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Ch2\u003EFish Lice (Argulus)\u003C\u002Fh2\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u002F\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EFish Lice is a crustacean parasite that is very easy to identify since you do not need a microscope to see it. They also are not commonly seen. The Doc’s seen only three cases of Fish Lice in the last few years and I’ve only seen one. I must admit I was excited to see it! A customer brought us a bowl full of them so I could see them in real life. They were green and you could see every part of their anatomy - all 10 legs and tiny lobster tail.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u002F\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Ch2\u003EPrevention — The Best Medicine\u003C\u002Fh2\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u002F\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EIt’s hard to prevent parasites from entering your pond environment. Amphibians such as frogs and turtles track them in. Birds can “drop” them in. You can’t blame poor pond husbandry. You can, however, do a few things to ward off any heavy infestations. By far, the easiest way to spread deadly parasites is to introduce new fish or plants into your pond.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u002F\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EHere we go again — preaching the perils of not quarantining and treating new fish. The Doc witnessed a landscaper who purchased fish from a source known for its vast array of different deadly parasites — a source from whom we have in the past purchased fancy goldfish and expected a certain percentage to die before we could cure them of their parasites. This landscaper, who shall remain nameless, selected fish for different clients and had them bagged and tagged with each client’s name for delivery to their pond later that day. He didn’t care to isolate them nor did he care that he was infecting a customer’s pond with fish-killing parasites. Perhaps he didn’t know. Perhaps he didn’t care to know. On this particular day by the time The Doc returned to the store to place the new fish under quarantine and treat them we had already lost a couple. Upon doing a microscopic biopsy The Doc found the fish literally eaten up with both Flukes and Ich. I must point out that this supplier is NOT BlueRidge Fish Hatchery. BlueRidge Fish Hatchery is our preferred (and favored) supplier of koi and goldfish.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u002F\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EMoral of the story and to make a long story short: Protect your existing koi and goldfish by quarantining and treating any new arrivals -- including plants!\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u002F\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003ENew plants are not totally innocent of bringing in parasites. Parasites can live on plants for a short time and plants can have live parasites on them when you introduce them into your pond. Plants that have been kept in ponds with fish are more apt to have parasites -- and there is no way to know for sure. The safest thing to do is to treat the plants with Cure-Ick before introducing them into your pond.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u002F\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Ch2\u003ETreating for Parasites\u003C\u002Fh2\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u002F\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EAs stated earlier in the article different parasites are treated differently.

A treatment for Flukes will not work on Costia and vice-versa. Whether treating a quarantine tank or the pond for parasites (if you don't know which parasite(s) is present) you must treat with two separate methods. Very important: Salt is the only treatment that can be administered along with other treatments and it's use is limited with some products. Treat the pond or quarantine tank with one product at a time and make water changes in between products!\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u002F\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u002F\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe Famous Salt Treatment\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u002F\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Ch2\u003EKills Ich and Chilodinella\u003C\u002Fh2\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u002F\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003ENothing is more natural and more beneficial to your fish than performing a salt treatment at the beginning of the season. Non-iodized, mineral-free salt without YPS anti-caking additive in the correct amount kills ich and chilodinella. It helps the fish develop and maintain a strong slime coat naturally. A healthy slime coat is a must for a healthy fish. It protects the skin of the fish while containing substances the fish’s body uses to fight off infection. There’s no reason to use commercial products that claim to build up the slime coat. They also coat the gills, making it more difficult for the fish to breath. Use salt instead. Salt also will not harm the beneficial bacteria (or any bacteria for that matter) in your filter. Salt is a wonderful thing to use whenever something is wrong in the pond. It's important to know how to use salt correctly to get the most benefit from it.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u002F\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003ENon-iodized, mineral-free salt is the safest and least expensive treatment to kill Ich and Chilodinella. It will kill certain plants also so you’ll need to remove them to a holding tank before you begin and treat them separately with Cure-Ick. Use 3 lbs. of salt per 100 gallons of water. It sounds like a lot of salt - and it is! Spread 1\u002F3 the total dosage of salt in the pond on the first day, 1\u002F3 on the second day and the rest on the third day. Leave the salt in the pond from 14 to 21 days to allow it do it’s thing. Then make a 50% water change, followed by another 50% water change a few days later to dilute the salt. We do not suggest leaving the salt in for more than the 21 days.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u002F\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003ESalt can be used in this strength along with most fluke medications.

We’re taking a closer look at those itchy little things that live on our fish and can make them sick. Parasites are found everywhere - in the food we eat and in our everyday living spaces. Some of them won’t hurt a thing and can be beneficial. The ones we’re attacking are the ones that are bad and cause problems for our pets with fins.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u002F\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EIt’s not Flash Dancing, it’s called “Flashing” when your fish rub themselves against the sides or bottom of your pond. They often take a running start and dive up out of the water and down to the bottom of the pond in a single fluid movement. The first time we saw this “dance” we thought they were playing. Not so. They are itching and trying to find a tree to rub against. In most cases flashing indicates that they have some sort of parasite.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u002F\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe itching is only the beginning of the trouble parasites cause our fish. Fish often injure themselves by scraping against sharp rocks or other objects. They may lose scales during their “flash dance”. Some parasites pierce the skin of the fish and suck out blood. Once the skin of the fish is broken, the fish become susceptible to opportunistic Aeromonas and Psuedomonas bacteria that enter through the wound or pinhole and cause havoc. Many times you’ll think we’re crazy for treating the fish for parasites when they obviously have an ulcer or other bacterial infection. The reason we do that is because the bacterial infection is most often a \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fphparea.com\u002Fblog\u002Fhow-to-pass-a-condition-to-an-postgresql-query-in\" target=\"_blank\"\u003Esecondary condition caused\u003C\u002Fa\u003E by the parasite.

Gill Flukes, for example, are notorious for damaging the gills. If the fish’s gills are damaged he will have difficulty breathing and may hang out by the water return or gulp at the surface of the water.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u002F\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe only sure way to diagnose whether your fish have parasites and, most importantly, what kind of parasite is present is to have a mucus scraping done by a vet. Without a vet's diagnosis we choose to simply treat the pond as if we knew it had both Flukes and Ick. Not all parasites will respond to one type of treatment. Only a few of the microscopic parasites are treated with non-iodized salt while others such as Costia, Flukes, Fish Lice and Anchor Worm require a different mode of treatment. If a mucus scraping cannot be performed you are forced to “shoot from the hip” and treat for both.

In advanced stages you can see it with the naked eye. It looks like little white spots that eat away at the base of the fins and cluster around the gill openings. In early stages it takes a microscope to see these “circles” that move round and round. Inside the circle is a nucleus shaped like a horse shoe. We don’t want to wait for Ich to get so bad that it can be seen without the microscope. Ich kills — preferring goldfish to the bulkier koi, but still a threat to koi as well. This is only one of two parasites that we still can eradicate with high doses of salt.

Good news. Trichodina isn’t as bad as the rest and normally just makes the fish itch. Bad news. It does help introduce bad bacteria into the internals of the fish. As we pointed out earlier, itching causes the fish to scratch (or flash) and the fish can lose scales or puncture its protective skin and mucus coat, allowing harmful bacteria to enter the body. Trichodina thrives in the muck in the bottom of the pond. Thorough pond cleanings should eliminate the threat of this parasite. This parasite used to be able to be treated with salt but, like Costia, is now immune and has to be treated by other medications.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\t \t\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Ch2\u003EFlukes\u003C\u002Fh2\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u002F\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EOh, the dreaded Flukes.

This landscaper, who shall remain nameless, selected fish for different clients and had them bagged and tagged with each client’s name for delivery to their pond later that day. He didn’t care to isolate them nor did he care that he was infecting a customer’s pond with fish-killing parasites. Perhaps he didn’t know. Perhaps he didn’t care to know.

A healthy slime coat is a must for a healthy fish. It protects the skin of the fish while containing substances the fish’s body uses to fight off infection. There’s no reason to use commercial products that claim to build up the slime coat. They also coat the gills, making it more difficult for the fish to breath. Use salt instead.
