I have had my green severum for roughly 2 years but for the last 3 months he has caught hole in the head disease. It hasn't effected him in anyway in terms of his behavior and appitite but its not getting better as I would hope it to.
I have been carrying out water changes twice a week and using anti internal bacteria. I am told it's a common problem in severums but don't know what to do about it as its getting quite close to his eye. If anyone knows what I can do or where I can get medicince that works PLEASE let me know. He is a brilliant fish and I don't want to loose him. From mouth to fin he is approximatly 5 inches long. Thanks for reading.
