White Eye on my DEAD baby koi
Comments (6)A lot would depend on when the baby koi died. Did it have the white eye when it died, or could a fungus have possibly started growing there after it died? If the growth started after the koi died, there may not be any need to treat the pond. Have you noticed any problems with your fish after the goldfish problem cleared up? Many people swear by salt, but others have stated that salt has been overused, much like antibiotics in humans, to the point where it is not as effective as it once was. It would not harm the fish to use salt, but I don't know its effectiveness against fungus. If you do use it, you may need to remove any plants, since most plants will not tolerate high levels of salt. Sorry I culdn't be more help, but I'm hoping others will see this thread and help you out....See Moresave my white pine

Comments (5)I have a wonderful contorted pine in my front garden. One of the unique things I found is it's needles brown & drop off twice a year - not all, just some of them. In the early spring & then again in the fall. It isn't dead - this is just a natural trait for this specific evergreen. It's a conversation piece in my community - most people here have never seen them before. We love it! We keep the needles raked up because they have a tendency to change the PH of your garden soil for other flowers, etc. We too thought it was dying but it is more beautiful when the brown disappears. Take heart & enjoy it! Regards, Pat...See Moredcsteg
