medication

Fish treatment variations by species and medication Not all fish species are able to be treated with generally used medications. There are some sensitivity issues between species that must be managed. However, sensitivity to a drug can also be seen in different dosages, how the drug is applied...

Hello friends, I just wanted to know your opinions and experiences about this symptom around the beak of this butterflyfish. Any exact diagnosis? Do you have suggestions for medication? Amoxicillin in water and food couldn't help, I may go for Florfenicol today This one feeds on dried shrimp...

TLDR-is this ich? How screwed am I? Logistical nightmares ahead So the dreaded day has come.. I’m pretty sure this is Ich (tried to get a natural light photo during daylight. Pardon the blues in the video, that was taken this evening during low blue moonlight) Some context, so I have a heavily...

I had an ich outbreak in my DT about 26 days ago, and yanked all of my fish out of the tank, moved into multiple QT tanks. I have way more fish than tanks, and some would kill each other, so they are split over 7 QT tanks of different sizes. I consistently treated all of the tanks with Copper...

Good day everyone, I haven’t found much about treating eels that become injured. I believe there may have been a squabble for a piece of food and the snowflake was bitten on the top of his head by the tessalata, barely missing his eyes, imagine a bonnet, that’s what it looks like. It is red...

Hi group, After much research and reading I’m 99% convinced my Picasso Clown has Swim Bladder Disease. He was in a tank with parameters of no3 10 po4 0.07 Salinity 1.024 Temp 76.0 F With another Picasso, 6th line Wrasse, YWG, and a CB Shrimp. All others are doing well. however, my clown...

Hi all, some of my Zoa heads have a bit of a cloudiness to them. Wondering if anyone has experience with defeating this? See the heads on the right side

I noticed one of my clowns had some signs of his pelvic fin being nipped at, but I mistakenly thought this was from the female bullying him and establishing dominance.. A week or so later it looks like he’s losing coloration near his stomach, which looks like it’s turning transparent from his...

Hi all, this is my first post here (been waiting to make a build post). I'm looking for some help with a possible diagnosis. My first saltwater tank has been cycled for a little over a month now. Last weekend I added my first two clownfish. They are pretty small but one is bigger than the...

I’ve read humble.fish quarantine procedures, this is my first time quarantining any new fish. I have a 60 breeder with a couple powerheads, heater, and marineland hob filter for QT. Im picking up a Magnificent Foxface tomorrow and am setting my QT up tonight. My LFS recommended starting with...

Hello, I’ve been treating my display with polyp lab medic due to a possible ich/velvet outbreak. I was told it is more than likely ich so I didn’t panic and quarantine all my fish. This morning I came in to see my kole tang sucked against the overflow and barely hanging on to life. I immediately...

My seahorse is suffering from snout rot and I've been using Kanaplex to heal her. It says up to 3 doses and I hit that 3rd dose yesterday. Can I repeat a 4th, and possibly a 5th dose if need be? Do I need to change the water out if I can do the 4th dose?

Hi all, I have a little 2-inch Tomini tang in QT right now, he has been there for about 2 weeks. We haven't done any medication yet because he wasn't eating at first and we didn't want to stress him further. He is eating just fine now, and has become more active (still a complete scaredy cat...

Hey y’all, I’ve had a clown in qt for about a month that has gone through both column dosing and food soaking of general cure, but internal parasites still persist. It still has white string feces. I learnt that fenbendazole is an alternative to resistant parasites, however it is not available...

I have a small porcupine puffer I got a couple months back. He was in QT for over 40 days with copper safe at 1.5ppm, also treated with Maracyn 2, furan 2, and prazi pro. He was added to a cycled 145 gallon tank with new rock and sand. Had VERY SLOWLY started developing tail/fin rot. It’ll get...

Okay so due to Australia’s shipping laws tightening up I haven’t been able to find cupramine or really any copper medications at any of my lfs. The only thing I’ve been able to get my hands on is oodonex by aqua sonic. Has anyone had any experience with this? is it worth getting or should I try...

Wanted to share my simple recipe for medicated frozen food with the community. I feed this to all of my fish through QT, and my DT on occasion, and have been very successful in treating bacterial/fungal/internal parasites/worms with it. Its nothing particularly unique or special, but I have...

Does anyone have any tricks for treating internal parasites of picky eaters such as Potter's Angels or anything else that prefers to graze on LR rather than eat out of the water column or off nori clips? I was planning to prophylactically treat with Metroplex + Focus but my Potter's definitely...

Hi, so my fish is sick, he is a clownfish. He is breathing heavily and has recently stopped eating. His color is looking much better than in the past. I have been treating with copper for a little over two weeks but he hasn’t fought it off yet since my ammonia got a little too high. It is under...

Hello, I got this clownfish last Sunday. My lfs already had him in step 1 and 2 medication ( the green and blue one). Also when I got him I did a FW dip and he had no flukes. He is in copper for the last 9 days ( @2.0ppm - Copper Power). He had some white spots the second day and after that he...

Back story I've been searching for this fish for months happened to walk into a lfs I've never been to before and they had it. It was in a tank with a tang and its fins were torn. Bought it anyway because I couldn't find it anywhere else. However this is how the fins healed these same things are...
