K, I'm getting really tired of this. I had a long battle with parasites in my tank for a few months. I kept treating and doing water changes but a few weeks later the flashing would start again. Eventually my plants died because he medicines would need the lights to be off so often. I finally stabilized my tank, my parameters have been good, and I replanted the whole tank with some great plants that are doing really well. Then I got some more fish from my LFS to repopulate my tank. I've been using para guard and everything seemed to be doing fine. I just noticed some flashing starting again and I'm not sure what the best course of action is. I don't want to keep using the harmful chemicals and run my lights off as my new plants are doing really well. It would only be for a few days, I know, but I'm really hoping I could get some advice to kick these guys once and for all. Any less harmful methods to rid myself of the parasite pestilence?
