GuppyGoddess
Fish Herder
Hi everyone,
Months back, one guppy of mine had a camallanus issue. Red rod at first, then immediately after that went away, he had the tell-tale red threads. I removed him from the tank and treated the remaining fish and tank with levamisole. Since then, there hasn't been any threads extending out from my other two male guppies. Today, after weeks of determining, I culled one of the remaining two because of him being VERY thin and looking sickly (though no signs of parasites - regular poo). The remaining guppy is healthy and robust.
In addition to that robost guppy, I have also provided two females for him. Question is, they both are VERY small. One is about 1/2" and the other is slightly smaller.
Can small fry like that handle levamisole? The tank is 5-gallons and also contains one pygmy cory.
Thanks.
