Hello! Just a wee update on George, after this hole appeared, it did look like an ulcer. The wound was covered in something like a white fuzz, not a fungys but likely dead skin, I'm sure even humans with a constantly submerged wound would have a similar problem. Anyway, I kept an eye on him...

Thanks all for your advice I wouldn't be able to have API Furan-2 dispatched until Monday. The Seachem Kanaplex sounds similar to the medication I gave him last night. Poor wee soul, I just don't know what would have caused this. ☹ I'll keep him over the weekend to see how he gets on. If he's...

Hi, thank you, do you have an idea of how I can do this?

I came home to find his side had popped open ☹ He's swimming around, not as confidently. It looks like an ulcer, no scales in the area. I can't do anything else except wait and I medicated the tank with anti fungal treatment (covers fungus, mouthrot and finrot) it's the closest I have...

Hello, I have a Longfin Leopard Danio with what looks like a bubble around the swim bladder area. It appears after he's been feeding. I've tried isolating him at dinner times to feed him seperately from the other fish otherwise he overindulges. I thought it was swimbladder and have medicated...
