Hi guys

I have been given a treatment that will take care of both the gill fluke and the whitespot which I am having issues with (I have no idea how it got in there but I will be sticking with my normal lfs from now on!) its called WS3 and am dosing at half dose due to black ghost knifefish.

I can see a small wormlike creature (which I have googled and it does look like a gill fluke) on by bgk, am I safe to remove this with a pair of tweazers or will it be too painful for the fish?


Stats are

Nitrite 0
Ammonia 0
Temp 27 degrees
Tank size 180 litres
treatment ws3
water changes - at the moment weekly, did one today at 25% stats were fine before hand but it was due.

Occupants:

Betta
4 guppies
5 neons
5 sailfins (which I believe bought the disease in)
5 chocolate gouramies
2 kribs
2 pencil fish
1 king tiger plec (grows to just under five inches)

feeding: frozen bloodworm, frozen brine shrim with garlic, flake and algae flake mix

I am aware that my stocking isn't ideal and am working on that issue (need to cure whitespot first, for now I could really do with some help on making my bgk better please, he is the best fish I have ever owned!
