some sort of fungal infection .. help needed Can't Post

hello.
first and foremost im a complete newbie to all this so please be patient with me and non judgemental ,
around three weeks ago my father passed away leaving me his beloved koi pond , containing 23 koi from 12 inches up to about 24 inches ,
i moved them to my house and they are currently in a temporary pond (a 10 ft round by 30 inch high kids paddling pool bought specially for them)
until the pond i am building is up and ready for them , at the moment they have a black box type filter which was what my dad had on his pond,
i have noticed that at least four of the fish have a sort of fungus on them ,i really dont want to lose any of these fish as they are to me part of my father and a reminder of him , please what can i do to make the fish better . i am so worried about them im losing sleep .

you probably have to describe more on your fungual problem, how it look like, is all over the body or just spotty. is the color is white or different? Seem like your kiddy pond is too small for that much of fish. too crowded, it will deteriate their inmune system then all kind of problem can occured. please let us know more. in the meanwhile salt the pond to .3% salt (3# per 100 gallon) to make koi relaxed and boost their inmune system.
