I have a sick koi it is the 2nd in a week.
It started flicking on the bottom and become dull.
I have separated in and added salt to all the water as prescribed.
Today the fish is still alive and looks like jelly along its back.

What is it, and how do I treat it.

Thanks

Sometimes Fish Lice (Argulus) looks like jelly. Might even be the start of Carp Pox, but without a photo, it will be difficult to diagnose.
