bacteria or virus? how often do u clean your tank and did u added anything in addtion to what you have done in the past?
 
i had 4 goldfish in my tank previously for about a year now.i thought about adding some other fish and bought three koi and two angelfish.an angelfish died the very next day of i don't know what cause.and a koi also died.and my healthy goldies also seem to be ill.i guess they have itch as they are scratching.im very tense as i had them healthy for a whole year and i don't wanna lose any of my fish.and also the angel fish isn't eating ANYTHING AT ALL.it just stays in a corner and whenever i put something for her to feed the other fish eat it.angel is very small about one square inch and the goldies and koi are large.i tried keeping the angel in a separate bowl but it didn't eat anything there too.PLEASE HELP ME I LOVE MY FISH TOO MUCH AND I DON'T WANNA LOSE ANY OF THEM.PLEASE.
yes i clean the tank regularly and feed them regularly too.they are not fed by anyone else and i do water changes with atleast 24hours stayed water and still add anti chlorine in it.i put salt in too.and also that blue medicine for white spots,velvet etc.we don't have any pets where we live.the koi with most itch is also becoming aggressive towards other fish as she's nibbling at their fins.
 
answer these questions on ur own:

- do you feed them regularly?

- does anyone else also feed them not knowing you already done it?

- do you clean the tank min. 1 every month?

- do you use cleaning products to clean the tank?

- do you fill the tank will town water or well water? (you usually add allot of salt to well water)

- are your fish old enough to soon pass away?

- are any of ur fish gonna lay eggs soon

Anyway - take them to the vet or call the vets office for suggestions...

Hope this helped! = )
