I have noticed a string-like row of eggs coming out of my angel's gills, the eggs are about 1.5 cm apart. I am not really sure what parasite this is ,but it seems to be spreading slowly, now there is one on its fin. I bought Life Bearer medication, which is supposed to kill parasites like gill flukes and fish lice. I have removed all the eggs that I could locate on the plants. I might need to get some new medication, since this one doesn't seem to work, if anyone has any medication suggestions I would greatly appreciate it.
 
Parasites just hate salt! Try adding some aquarium salt or kosher salt. Right know I got some salt and Tetramedica for some planaria and it's slaughtering them!
 
Corys will be ok with a little salt, although where are you? its hard to suggest meds if we don't know what country you are in, thats why theres a location option in the user profile ;)
 
Yeah, I knew I forgot something. I live in the US, Chicago area.
Thanks for the responses guys.
