Possibly sick fish

[taherrmann4]

Well I have been watching my one koi and she (at least I think she is a she) has been laying on the bottom of the pond for the last week or so hardly moving at all. She does not come up for food and I have to nudge her with the net to see if she is still alive. When I do that she will move very slowly around but then goes and lays on the bottom somewhere else. She is quite large and I don't mean long. So I am not sure what's going on. Just have to wait and see.

Maybe she's love-sick.

It does not sound good to me. Maybe one of the koi guys can suggest where to start.

Hello
When you say large
Swollen or other around the stomach area ?

Have you tested the water perimeters ?

Get here in a net a net check her out
Look at her scales look to see if they are compact or sticking out, look around her gills for irritation or redness, look for sores and things around her body
And get pics if you can.

Could be a few things
She could be compacted with eggs
or having blatter problems

Good licj with her
