I believe this to be Argulus, or fish lice.

Has anyone else had a problem with these things? How can I get rid of them?

Thanks!

Yep looks like it , used to see when i was a fish farmer.

Formalin treatment, so treatlemts like protozin will kill the smaller stages but not the adualt stage.

Salt dips may help to disslodge the adualts and help stop the wounds getting infected on the fish.
