I was just reading a post on Koi-Quest and it seems that the UK (and possibly the rest of Europe?) is heading for a drastic change in the laws governing the sale and distribution of Koi medications and treatments.
The Veterinary Medicines Directorateare are on the brink of outlawing most medications and all anaesthetic used to treat koi at the moment. The only remaining treatments will be the prepackaged, over priced, stuff sold by firms like Tetra that are basically worthless to the koi hobby
Take a wade through the new regs and decide if it might not be in our best interest to make a lot of noise on this matter?

Read the thread on Koi quest as well if you wish.
