Hi everyone I bought 6 discus from lfs and they are in QT right now, for safety I'm treating them API General Cure and one of them released some long white feces I suspect that they are tapeworms. Can someone take a look just to sure about it please? Thanks in advance. -B

I read online they say that Nematodes are the most common one which i guess the ones in my tank having a fiesta right now. On the other side, Planaria "feed on dead and/or rotting flesh, as well as excess fish food left in the substrate. They also EAT EGGS AND FRY."

Thanks!

I feed twice a day and just one pinch every time. I guess that is the cause. After doing the WC this morning seems like they are all gone. (probably on the sand or the filter took them out). If they do no harm then that is fine. :)

Im doing a 70% wc and bunch of these little guys (about millions of them) are flying around....

Hi guys i found my discus with a white line this morning when i was feeding him. He was eating just fine but I don't know if it is a disease or parasite please help!

The meat was hard as if i cooked it with boiling water lol. Strange :/ i guess i will move the ghosties to my planted tank with the betta.

For about a month now. (i added small dose of API Tetracycline med for the discus but i dont think that kills them)

I came home and found two of my ghost shrimp dead, looks like they got cooked. The water temp is 30C and my discus seems just fine. Is it the heater cook the shrimps or something else?

I don't know because they dont sell kh gh test kit here... I think the water is kind of hard because they say if you mix water with little bit of soap and the bubble is low then the water is hard. I have been doing 40% WC everyday to keep the tank as clean as possible. Will i harm the fish...

I am currently using tap water and treat with tetra safe plus. Since the water has ph 7.5 i use Seachem discus buffer to lower the ph. The Blackwater extra (tetra brand) is a chem that contains substances that help angelfish, discus, tetras, accommodate better the environment.

Yes i use liquid test from api and all seems fine.

Im sorry but what is pwc?

Hi everyone, My new discus started eating yesterday since i introduced him a week ago but today he stopped eating again. One thing i noticed him is his color changed from dark to white. Is this normal? I added Blackwater extract and kept ph 6.8 to try to mke him happy and start to eat again...

Yeah, must be the betta. Thanks! Problem solved!

The only thing i find it weird is that both fishes died in different time but they get the same wound, almost exact same cut as if someone chopped the fin off.

I have once got neon tetras with ich and I kept my temp up to 88-89 but somehow the ich just wont come off but kept growing and killed the fish by the end. Could it be because I did WC too often? (I do it everyday when they were sick)

A female betta that always swim on top and five ghost shrimps. The tank i have is 30G.

Good morning everyone, I found my two of my neon dead floating with no fin tails and blood were coming out from the wounds. When i scooped them out the wound is fresh. But i dont see other fishes attack them as they always swim in group. What could it possibly be? (they had ich and i was...

I have a 30G tank with six ghost shrimp, i dont really need the pleco ah? If not then i will give it to someone who need it more.

Tell me something folks, does your pleco always poop like crazy diarrhea? I did wc and it poop then i siphon his poop and he poop again... None stop... He ends up creating more waste then cleaning.

I have a question regarding the python or aqueon wchanger. What do you do when you have to fill the tank up? Straight from tap? I saw youtube a lady add water striaght from the hose lol but isnt it dangerous for the fishes? Sorry for asking so many questions xD

there are tiny holes on the head forgot to mentioned. Do i smash the garlic, squeeze the juice out and dip the foods in?

Good day everyone, My new discus has been in my tank for 3 days and have not eat yet. temp is 31Celsius, ph6.8 ammonia0. Did waterchange evrday. There are small holes i think* and small part of slime coat on the side of the discus) In photo you can see the whitedish side of the body...
