the other day, i noticed that my goldfish...had a really big yellowy shiney spot on his underside...i looked it up and seen pictures and i think its definitly velvet.
im upset about it...but what can ya do...i went to the lfs got some medicine for it...kids are crashed in living room...or id go get the med and tell you what its called but it said for the treatment of velvet..and other things on it.
this afternoon, my goldfish...the one who the fish store didnt even know what he was..hes kinda deformed and oddly colored...but thats why i love him so much...anyways he was lifeless on the bottom of the tank...i freaked out!
but he moved when i stirred around him...
hes not active and im very worried about him..
i gradually upped the temp to 82 and the lights have been out all day and last night of course..since i read that the parasite is fed by light...ive been doing faithful 50% wc's everyday...and i took the carbon out of the filter...
im worried and dont know what else i could do..?
any advice?
