Pretty hard.. i don't want to say any more until gillie gets back. May not be a big deal.. for now.. get her in the display and add a little salt to curb infection..

Ok. A little salt? 1/4 teaspoon per 10 gallon?

I hate salt and hate chemicals even more. This is what I use and it's cleared up all kinds of funk for me in the past and has yet to fail me.

Did you see the white areas on her gills gillie?

Your water is a little hard for typical apistos, but your macmasteri are a tank strain and quite adaptive(just don't expect any spawns over 30 eggs or so), she does seem a little far gone, but I have seen fish come back from worse.

Does it look bacterial? She was fine and then out if nowhere...

I don't have that med and have never seen it. I can order but it'll take 2 days...

So salt, bifuran, prazipro?

how far are you from San Antonio? Aquarium Adventure should have it.

 

[michellev512]

Of you look at the pic when she was healthy looking she has the white spot and it's equally on both sides...
Is it possibly just her coloring or was that the beginning of somethinh

I put her back in the main tank. No clamped gills and she is eating

I'm going g to keep doing large water changes. Nitrates down to 10 with small amount of salt. I have that kordon stuff coming Monday..

And I think I'm taking the bully out, the second male harasses her

They're going to be aggressive towards each other, just the nature of those apistos. Keep up the good work, you'd be amazed at how many malities can be fixed via pristine water conditions.

Ok so I have done 2 doses of maracyn plus. My tank seems to be fine with no ammonia or nitrites...

Tomorrow will be the 5th day...I am supposed to do 1 more dose but I'm just at a loss if I should do it or not. Her patch is still there but she is eating normally and acting normally. Should I do a large water change tomorrow and switch to the kordon stuff?

Hi guys...

So after I had to switch out my 75 gallon due to a possible crack, I think the stress of the day (netting them all twice) has caused an ich outbreak 2 weeks later.

I've added a dose of the kordon ich attack to the tank. Can I use salt as well??

Can't increase heat because of my goby...

And gillie I know you've used this med before...should I just dose 1 time per day because it says up to 2. And does it really take 5 weeks to cure??

It's never taken near that long for me, it's says to continue treatment for ich for 3-4 days after spots disappear and I always use max dose.
