Recently my koi jumped out of the pond, luckily we were able to resuscitate it and everything seemed fine. Apparently it's common for fish to get fungal/bacterial infections after flopping around on the ground and apparently that's what happened. I started noticing it's skin looking flakey/cottony recently and immediately started using mela fix from the pet store to treat it. The water got pretty cloudy because of it, and i couldn't see much but i decided to take a close look a couple days ago and not only had it not gotten better it got a bit worse. I bought pimafix later that day and have been trying both every day since (about 3 days) and it doesn't look to be improving. What should I try? It's looking pretty bad and i hope this doesn't become the case but will euthanasia have to be my option?
