Hi Friends !
Just wanted to request for guidance and help -
A few days back, my fish (all fronts and brichs) stopped eating and were always hiding. I was alarmed that it might be bloat or something so I tried to dose the tank with the Human Drug Flagyl. I used about 4 Tablets of 400 Mg strength in my 200 liter tank (since they werent eating I couldnt add it to the feed)
The one brichardi that I lost today had almost a big-bloated stomach, so I'm afraid that the disease might still be there in the tank. Now all my fish have started eating well, but they are'nt excreting. I afraid that I might lose more fish...
1.Is my dosing right ?
2.Now that they're eating, should I try to soak some freeze-dried brine shrimp in Flagyl Solution and feed them ?
3.Also I find that the white crystals of Flagyl arent dissolving well, is there any thing I can do to dissolve the medicine well ? Like using hot or boiling water to dissolve the medicine ?
4. Should I use some Epsom Salt in the tank to help them excrete ? If yes, how much dosage ?
Please guide me here - I dont want to lose more fish...
Kindly advice...
Thanks again !
