Hi i have got a problem that i just cant solve in my tank. I have got a 55 gallon tank that i had 2 goldfish in but a few weeks ago i bought two koi from someone (not a shop stupidly) and they have brought something to the tank and i just dont know what, not long after putting them in i noticed they were rubbing themselves all around the tank and swimming side ways into the gravel as if something was irratating them, i treated them with whitespot treatment which had no effect, a few days later my original fish started doing the same thing. None of the fish have any signs of parasites or any types of spots and look perfectly heathy so that lead me to beleive that they may have had internal parasites (flukes) so i then treated them with "sterazin gill and body flukes" this again has had no effect on the fish and they are still insisting on flashing and rubbing themselves. I just do not know what else to try, the water quality is good, i have been doing regular partial water changes and the fish are all eating fine. I have never had any problems like this before and googling is getting me nowhere! Any advice or suggestions would be great thank you
