U have done plenty u answered that's more then half the people who looked at this tread did. U have helped me figure out it is not in fact velvet. I just wish there was like a test swab the fishes skin drop some magic fluid onto it and it tells u what it has. This unknown is killing me and watching Kole swim like this is very saddening. @melypr1985 What do u know about a swimming bladder problem? At least that's what I think they called it
However, I don't know if food soaking metro would do the same. But it might explain how the fish is "living with velvet" - how long ago did you food soak metro?
Friday Saturday and today but I don't know if he actually are any of itI've experimented with using metro to treat velvet and while it did seem to slow down the progression of the disease, the fish always ultimately died.
Just curious what dose were u using? Twilliard has made a thread against dinos using metro. The reason i bring it up is that he has used i wanna say up to 220 mg per 10 gallons and no loss and this is in a reef tank. I have dosed 155mg per 10 gallons with not a single ill effect.I've experimented with using metro to treat velvet and while it did seem to slow down the progression of the disease, the fish always ultimately died.
Agreed there it last about 24 hours give or take
Well I dosed it Aprox 24 hours apart every time around 1:30 pm. One of the medicines I have says to only use for three days then to stop I beleive that is the kanna plex. @Humblefish do u honestly beleive it is velvet? Take out the fact that it is running rampant out west and it's the first thing that would pop into ur mind. Now that u have done that do u still think it's velvet with none of my other fish showing any signs of a problem and having this fish for two months with no prior problems at all.
