Hey guys.
So I take care of some tanks for a business downtown. Anyway one of the tanks has 3 koi and one of them has been losing some scales. First thing the tank is too small but I am doing the best I can for these guys. Anyway for some reason they also have 2 huge silver dollars in there so the temp is around 25 I know that's too hot for koi. But these fish have been there for years and I just noticed scale shedding in the past month. I have only been working with them for a few months. Anyway parameters are
ammonia 0
Nitrite 0
Nitrate never higher than 40
The tank is a 280
Temp around 25
Filtration they have an fx5 and an fx6
Let me know if you need more info!
Here is a pic of the koi whose losing scales.
