| A). Protozoans are
rapidly swimming around in the bile |
 |
Flagellates of various genera
can be involved |
|
If the fish have Hexamita,
treat with:
Metronidazole. |
 |
|
| B). Large numbers
of bacteria occur in the bile and on the wall of the gallbladder |
|
Severe bacterial infection can
occur in Abdominal Dropsy and in other diseases as well |

Make up a medicated frozen
food with
Doxycycline -or-
Kanamycin. Thaw food and add 1/2 tsp. medication to
every 4 oz. of feed. Return food to freezer. After
frozen, feed for 10 days. |

If mixing up for Koi feed, Use 2 teaspoons medication per pound
of Koi pellets. Add the medication to a spray bottle with
approx. 2oz. of water. Spray feed with entire contents of
bottle and let air dry. Feed for 10 - 20 days. |
| C). Large immobile
objects and small crystalline structures are found in the
gallbladder |
|
These are precursors to
gallstones |
|
Examine the other organs.
The crystals are not the cause of the illness. |
