Wow! Looks great! Very nice

I think it's prob the same. Your fish def has all the symptoms from that cichlid bros video

No experience in soil or dirts, but I think play sand is very similar, maybe slightly smaller grained, than pool filter sand

Oh OK, cool, see something new everyday

I would try to get the water corrected before medicating

If you can get him to eat some medicated food, that would be best

I don't have any experience using metroplex, but I think it's good. Prazipro is a good fluke, worm med. Gc is a good dewormer. I'd use the one that is more broad spectrum. The bath is stressful, but I've done it on a couple of fish and both healed fine.

Nitrate under 40 is ideal. Sounds like a bacterial infection. You might have to order some meds stronger than melafix to get it cleared up

Haha! And after reading everyone's responses on this thread, nothing got cleared up for you

And to add to all that great info, often if you scrape them off and into the water column, they'll just settle on something else and continue to be brown, unsightly and populate

Oh.... then it's def a demon

They are top notch. Prob a little better quality control and they use a better low lead glass. That being said, I have several tanks from aqueon and marineland both that have been running for years with no issues. Including an aqueon 75 and 90. Can't beat the value

Could be fungal or bacterial. Treat with hikari ich-x or kordon rid ich plus for fungal first, since it is cheaper. Find out how well corys tolerate that med, it might be a reduced dose

Because in the US we have access to more medication. Don't waste your time with pimafix and melafix. They're more like a preventative than a curative. Kinda antiseptic like. Get some broad spectrum antibiotics like Api fin and body cure, or whatever, and make a medicated food for him. You...

I don't keep snails or live plants, so I'm really just guessing from the million posts on here about it, but it might be snail larvae that hitched in on the plants

Haha! It took me 2 years to learn all the functions on my TV remote

I've had good luck with general cure. And also Prazipro. Debatable how much gets in their system just by adding it to the water tho. Making a medicated food with GC is the best, but since he's not eating.... put a couple of qts of water in a bucket/ container, so it's pretty shallow still...

My cichlids, esp the Africans, love Tetra cichlid crisps

Have you checked your tap water?

They breed really slow. [emoji222]

Corn on the cob

Oh heck, sorry to hear that. Nerve wracking

Haha! Chit

Haha! Good point! I guess my question was created from my American superiority complex, lol

Are you in the U.S. or abroad?
