Suspect?

spencertan · 21-07-2011, 08:23 PM

Hello all,
I net out all my kois for checking today and noticed that many have tail nip marks and some have injuries,not severe though,add medication already.
Just want to check who could be the possible suspect of nipping my kois tail and attacking them? i have 3 8-10 inch tin foil barbs,1 parrot fish about 8 inch,3 lemon barbs that are odd one out in my koi pond. I have removed all these fishes today and selling my tin foil barbs. Please leave some comments on who might be the one.

parrot fish is quite territorial so it is possible to be the cause but only 1pc in the pond,not very sure...

i think its best to keep only kois - i threw in a red ear slider terrapin before - as it grew bigger, it became more aggressive and nip quite a few fins

The culprit should most likely be the Luohan.
