I am hoping I could receive some ideas on treating my scotts fairy wrasse who has recently gained parasites. I spent time looking for pics on the web and they resemble little transparent to white parasites maybe flukes or lice? From what information I had found and my local fish stores advice I decided to give him a freshwater dip. This was more traumatic on myself then to the fish! Anyway he hid the rest of that night. The following day I could see no parasites anywhere and it seemed to work. Yesterday he never came out not even for feeding. Today I saw him when I was feeding my tank. His one fin is covered in white spots and even larger parasites are on his body. He barely uses it to swim. Sorry I do not have a camera with good quality to take pictures. One of my main questions is,
I only have a 10G QT is this large enough to treat him in?
Also is giving him another freshwater dip a good idea?
Should I treat for parasites and bacterial?
And Finally if anyone can help. My other fish seem fine except my yellow blenny is starting to rub raocks I notice Should I worry about an outbreak?
