flukes

Hey guys I just picked up a tang and it’s swimming super weird. It twitches it’s head often but it also goes near the surface at times and freaks out. Just curious if anyone can identify this disease so I can cure this little bugger. The video doesn’t do it too much justice but hope it helps...

Hi guys, I got this fish from Liveaquaria about 20 days ago and after 2 days of being in QT we moved it to the my new DT tank. It had a wound on it's side from trying to go under the rock so I treated the entire tank with Seachem Paraguard for 10 days. Things got better after the 4th day of...

I have a 30 Gallon QT tank up and running with 5 fish. Yellow Eye Kole Tang, x2 False Percula Clownfish, Pyramid Butterflyfish, and a Black Molly. All of these fish except for the molly have been in QT for slightly over one month. The tank is currently running with 2.5PPM+ of copper power...

Hey everyone I noticed these small little blobs moving around on my screen few days ago. I didn’t dope any copepods but just some more one and only from dr time and another fluval beneficial bacteria. Should I be taking any action? Hope these aren’t flukes? Thanks!

Hey everyone, So I am a little frustrated because I can’t figure out what’s on my hippo tang. A little over 4 weeks ago I placed all fish in a hospital tank and treated for what I suspected to be velvet. After 4 weeks of cupramine treatment maintained between 0.45 and 0.55 I am still seeing...

Attempted to rescue this juvi desjardini Tang. He looked emaciated in the store, with a countable number of small white dots on his fins. Here is what he looked like yesterday. After bringing him home, upon closer inspection he had a couple of nodules on his eyes. Per recommendations in...

I've been recently posting about my yellow tang in QT who has been stressed out for the last week or so. I just did a 10% water change (temp and salinity match). Following the guidance of some helpful members on this forum, his stress has gone down. I've kept all lights off, added more Nori to...

Hello guys, I have a clownfish and diamond goby in a 20g QT tank. 2 days since purchased. They’ve been getting light feeding and seem okay. The goby is shy and stays hidden behind PVC. The clown has some tissue degradation. Looks like skin peeling, on his tail, and fins. I’ve started dosing...

My fish have flukes and I have some questions on treatment Is a freshwater dip necessary? How safe is it to treat with prazi pro in tank? I have various lps and soft corals and a pocilopora, no inverts except a snail and amphipods. Should I worry about the pods? How do I treat and for how long...

Help I’ve noticed these white spots on my clowns. They are eating still and have been in quarantine for about 10 days. They are swimming normal but these spots concern mean. What do they mean?

Hello, I have a 20 gallon QT with HOB filter and air stone. The HOB has a Bio-wheel and I've added some bio media in it as well. I have a Seachem Ammonia badge and have seeded the QT with Seachem Stability and have no detectable ammonia. The temperature is steady at 78F and I change 10% water...

I'm in week 7+ of QT (quarantine). I have completed the TTM (tank transfer method) and they're awaiting their return to the DT (display tank) after the seventy something days to prevent reinfection of Ich. Can you please help me identify what this is (and hopfully propose a treatment method)? I...

Whoops! Wrong thread, sorry. I've moved it under Fish Disease Treatment and Diagnosis: https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/brooklynella-velvet-flukes-ich-or-other.696929/

My blue tang has some fluffy looking spots on him. Flukes? Should I freshwater dip? Check out the video. I added prazipro to the tank this morning.

Hey everyone I’m just being a little cautious, I did a water change today and right now I have two clowns and a starry blenny in the tank. Everything went well, later on I noticed something on the side of my starry blenny it looks like he scratched himself on a rock or something but there’s also...

I think I'm dealing with flukes in my DT. It's my first time at dealing with any disease after almost 5 years of fish-keeping. What I did wrong: I added snails that I purchased at an LFS on April 6 - no QT. I also added snails from Live Aquaria (which I believe were shipped from a Quality...

I went through several Pyramid Butterfly fish to figure this out. Watch as I take you through 4 months of working with these fish to figure out a cure. Amazon links to everything I used in the videos is in the youtube comment section.

I have an Exquisite Fairy Wrasse and an Orange-Back Fairy Wrasse that are in quarantine. I recently noticed them scratching their gills on the PVC fittings and yawning. So I did some research and decided to dose PraziPro. I have read that it could be caused by flukes or ich. It makes sense that...

So we got a Royal Gramma on 02-04-18 and it has been in QT ever since (thank god). He came and immediately presented with symptoms of flukes (up at the top of the water, breathing heavy, began to get cloudy eyes, fin rot/deterioration). Started to treat for flukes with fresh water dips (2 of...

I have a Lineatus Wrasse that I have had for 2-3 years. He was healthy and active last week. The rest of my fish are doing great as well as my corals. I went away on vacation and had someone feed my tank daily, probably overfed my tank. The first day back with my lights on I noticed him lying...

i just saw a white thing on one of my dwarf angelfish last night. This morning it is gone but there is a spot of discoloration where I saw the thing. These fish are already in QT so can I dose copper and Prazipro general cure melafix? Also, if it is flat worms will that effect my corals that are...

Hello, I have a 120 bare bottom 120 gallon FOWLR tank and my fishes contracted ich and flukes. what is the best medicine or treatment for it? I was thinking of using Polyp Lab Medic, Prazipro or nuke it with copper since i don't have any inverts and corals . Any suggestions? 3 out of 10 fishes...

As the title says I am lucky enough to have one tank as it is (I have a 60 gal cube with a 18 gal sump). I will be getting some new fish in my tank here soon. I would really love to have a QT tank but a QT tank to my wife is just another tank. So with the circumstances I am in QT is not an...

So now I'm changing my game plan on most new arrivals. I've been dosing CP (40mg) during TTM coupled with Prazipro. I feel it's about the safest route to go considering that nearly all fish I've seen lately have a Parasite, Flukes, Bacterial infection, Viral infection, etc, etc. We know that...
