Angel Problem!

[a.i.m]

Ok i did my 3rd dose this morning and theres been no improvement the condition has stayed the same.
How long should i wait before i do my water change and run the carbon do you think?
How long should i run the carbon for to remove my already added meds, so i can add my new interpet meds?
Ive also not fed them for 2 days, shall i feed or not?

Cheers for the help.

Not much that why i was wary of the med as you don't even have to do a water change, anywater preform a water run some carbon for a few hours then start the med, good luck.

Ive just put a load of carbon in the external & im doing a 35% water change.

The fishes condition hasnt got any better there are still all the angels affected by it.

So im off down the lfs to buy some anti internal bacteria med as ive already got the anti fungus & fin rot .
Will do the first dose later today.
ill let you know how things go.

 

[WILDER]

Right, good luck.

 

[a.i.m]

you did say to mix the med as thats what ive done also increased my airation 2 fold , but my twg catfish has just died, and the rest of the fish look well uneasy.

 

[WILDER]

Yes i mixed then with no problems, how are they acting.

Right sorry for the catfishes loss, if they are acting weird dilute it down with a water change.

 

[a.i.m]

fish r not liking it , i ve removed the mollies as they r attacking the angel as there are worst affected.

 

[WILDER]

Dilute it down with a water change maybe should of gone in with half dose my fault as i've used it without problems.

 

[a.i.m]

im going to leave it for half a hour see how they look then, my common plec has gone lighter in colour also. Or do u think i should move my plecs out in to another tank on there own.

 

[WILDER]

Going pale is stress, but i used it with plecs at full strength but if they are pale, i would just do the water change to dilute the concentration of the med, i'm panicking now.

 

[a.i.m]

no im going to dilute it as the plecs now look like they are struggling, 50 ltr water change, quick smart.

 

[WILDER]

Quick.

Its a 10 gallon tank??
If so then it sounds really overcrowded before you added fish which should have been quarantined first.

List all the fish you have as disease spreads really fast through over crowded tanks.
What filtration are you using as it would need to be good to keep on top of any waste issues.

I would do a few large water changes to take out any meds but it seems that overcrowding is the main issue.

 

[a.i.m]

its a 240 rio , the 1 clown has now lost its colour too. ive done the 50 ltr water change

Do some of the other fish look any better, clowns are funny with meds being usually parasite meds, you did add the correct amount of med, just asking to be sure.

Also can you get your aeration turned up more.
