Trichodina

Identifying Trichodina:

This is a flying saucer shaped parasite. A large population of Trichodina are more of an indication of the pollution factor in the pond since bacteria thrive on excess waste products.

Koi with heavy infestations of Trichodina are very slimy due to the mechanical irritations caused by the suction disc and rotating movements of the organism.
