neep help fast.rescued discus

[pinkertd]

It would suggest that there is irritation/inflammation of the intestinal lining
Its shed by a fish for many reasons..... parasites like worms and flagellates are common causes.

[pinkertd]

That's a good product. I would definitely treat them for parasites.

I hope this guy pulls through for you...

Good luck with the parasite treatment.

 

[duneenworywifit]

me too!will keep you guy updated.keeping my fingers crossed

 

[duneenworywifit]

it seems like theyre responding well.they are all swimming mid water etc.the guy that is sick is even chasing the fish around.getting their pecking order sorted.this is really cool!I hope this little guy comes around.Hes got a lot of heart,he sits there nose down and when a fish comes by he chases it a little then goes back nose down. its pretty funny imo.his colour even looks better.Ive got good feelings about this fish!!!1

sounds like a good sign! good job rescueing the discus they are really cool fish!

Prazi pro is a great med for internal parasites. Salt will not help you in this instance.

I dosed the QT with epsome salt this morning.pinkertd said it was cool to use the parasite clear by jungle.

Parsite clear is broad spectrum(has prazi).If it looks like like a segmented rope thats a good sign as apposed to mucus like.
