MORNING GUYS. After my latest filfer episode my fish are dying. Seems like their eys are buldging and their mouths wide open. Ek is nou moedeloos . Enige advies sal wardeer word. Die groter een van die lotwat gevdek het het so skuins in die water begin hang. Any help please

Ek merk jy pos onder KHV. Dit kan KHV wees indien jy nuwe vis bygevoeg het, maar indien nie, sou KHV vroeer uitgebreek het.
Klink eerder na 'n bakteriele infeksie. Die beste is om 'n monster in te stuur na Pathcare om te bepaal watter Bakterie om te behandel, maar jy het nie tyd nie.
Jy behoort ook 'n skraap te neem om te sien of daar 'n parasiet infeksie is wat die bakteriele infeksie getrigger het.
Ek sou 'n aggresiewe Potasium Permanganaat behandeling gevolg het as ek jy was. 2.5g/1000 liter, slaan een dag oor, en doen dit weer en weer todat die water pienk bly vir ten minste 4 ure. Afhangende van die organiese materiaal in jou dam, 4 of 5 keer met 'n dag oorgeslaan tussen behandeling. 20 -30% waterchange na elke behandeling.
Gooi dan 5kg sout per 1000 liter.

Ek he sopas opgemerk dat die dam water stink. Is dit moontlik, dit relatiiewe vars water

Could it be an amonia spike? Last year a friend of mine clean her filter system 100% and not realizing wiped out the bacteria and Sounds similar to what you describe. She lost 12 fish and the others healed.
Try and think if there was anything you did differently.

Ek het basies alles anders gedoen, nuwe filters die lot...en Pieter dankie vir die goeie advies oor die Potasium Permanganaat ..die oorblywende helfte van die vis lyk sommer heel bakgat nou...
ek het ook n lek op my 5000l (wat eintlik 1000L is) dam en die vis verskuif na n kiddies pool vir tyd en wyl.More gaan ek n 30% water verandering doen en dan n doepa bygooi wat die goeie filters gouer aan die gang kry..
Ek sal more nadat ek hulle mooi in die daglig beskou het n verdere update gee

My appologies,wasnt paying attention ..I basicly changed THE FILTER SYSTEM. Major mistake by the looks of it.
I moved all the remaining fish to a kiddies pool and treated them with a good solid dose of Potasium Permanganaat... they seem to have healed well but i will only be able to tell tomorrow .
I too have lost about half of my fish , it just created a opportunity to buy better fish...( once i have mastered the art of pond keeping)
