Ok, fingers crossed. Keep us posted. If no improvement after another day of two will have to go to stronger meds.
+1Try API General Cure.
Well originally the red sore on the left side healed but the white cottony growth on the gill has remained with little change it hasn't gotten smaller or bigger than I can tell. I had stopped the melafix and pimafix treatment and got some erythromycin and treated that alone for 8 days with no change then continued the errythromyacin combined with melafix and pimafix as well as adding a tablespoon of aquarium salt once a week with water change, and still nothing.
I just started looking at UV steralizers last night and am not too familiar with them, but I currently have just an air stone and a tetra whisper bio bag filter. Was thinking about upgrading filters anyways cause I hate the bio bag. I saw this and was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on it? Aquatop Power Filter with UV - Up to 15 gal.
also this UV sterilizer that is just on its own and not inline with the filter
AA Aquarium Green Killing Machine Internal UV Sterilizer with Powerhead: Aquarium UV Sterilizers
Well the general cure still didn't help either and it caused an ammonia spike I did a 90% PWC and put carbon in the filter to get rid of some of the meds left. I'll take the carbon out in a few days and toss it and put my purigen back in. Then idk what else to do. She still hasn't had any change in appetite or activity she seems really happy and curious and is eating well.
