Wilder Can You Help Again.... Or Anyone Else Of Course

Sounds more promising.

didnt add the anti internal bacteria med in the end and all seems good. so far! going to do a water change tommorrow and hopefully my fish will feel even better.... still not seen any flicking since adding the 2nd dose of wormer plus so all is good............

 

[WILDER]

Let me no when you have finished the worming med.

how long should i leave it before adding any carbon to remove the wormer meds? not going to do it just yet but was just wondering...... still no flicking that i have noticed

 

[WILDER]

Does it say to use black carbon after med course.
Some wormers you don't have to use black carbon as it only works for aday.
You just do a water change a few days later.

no it doesnt say anything about using carbon. i just thought that its what you were supposed to do to remove any meds left in the water after treating.....

 

[WILDER]

If you are unsure just use some black carbon.

still not seen any flicking will leave it a few more days then maybe add carbon if needed although a good water change will get rid of alot i guess....

 

[WILDER]

Ok.
Good Luck.

just did about a 25/30% water change as i didnt get chance at the weekend.... didnt add any carbon i think i will just let it be diluted and eventually rid by more water changes syill no flicking so all is looking good, although it was after the water change last time they started again....!!! fingers crossed

Don't forget with fluke it's best to treat 4 to 5 weeks once a week.

with the wormer plus?

 

[WILDER]

What does it say in the instructions about flukes. How long does it say to treat.
I keep thinking it flubenol the med you are using instead of wormer plus.

the instructions just say to add right amount and if persistant then add another dose in 7 days. but it doesnt state if you can add another dose (3rd/4th /5th etc) so im a littlt unsure myself

 

[WILDER]

Ok.
I think I would just do one more dose in seven days.
Flukes are very hard to get rid of, that's why you have to keep hitting the tank with meds.

ok ill take your advice and add 1 more dose. the fish seem ok but it cant do any harm i guess.... when would it be ok to add more fish? i have some in my qt tank that seem ok and ready to join the rest but is it best to wait or put them in then add the next dose to treat them too just incase...........? or to wait another week or so?
