I always prefer medicated food when it comes to parasites because target directly where is needed. I use metro with focus and garlic guard to improve the taste. I also use frozen food. So far i havent had issues with this method. I personally dont like to put too much medicine in the water...

Hi, I noticed in the last picture a long stringy poop that looks like parasites as well. I would treat that with medicated food just in case. As far as the eye, just keep what you do and see if it gets better, worst case you can go with erythromicyn which is very good for that Good luck Asifd

I dont know about cooper safe tbh. I always use ick-x and it works wonders. Also have in mind that ich always get worse before it gets better

Yes, it is a terrible feeling. On top of that I lost another one 2 weeks ago that started to breathe heavily with the head up. Not 180 degrees like this one but very similar. I tried everything with that as well, prazi, mb dips, salt dips, paraguard, maracyn 2, nothing helped and after fighting...

Hi, Sorry to hear about your angelfish, i have one and is doing exactly the same with the eye issue as well. Maybe a coincidence or a correlation, dont know. I Tried the same to no avail, fasting for 3 days but nothing happened. I feed my fish with NLS flakes that supposedly are one of the best...

Thanks for your reply StarGirl , that might be an option. Forgot to add that I left the tank outside so it makes sense.

Hello all, I have a 5 gallon tank that I used for quarantine fish running for like a week or so while I was on vacation(just with 1 decoration and a sponge filter). Before I left I had a fish that died for unknown reasons and I change 70% of the water after that. So I left the tank clean to my...

Hello, If they have a long white stringy poop they have parasites. I always do metroplex combined with food (add garlic guard), but in this case they are not eating so you need to add it in the water column. You could use either metroplex or API general cure Try to feed them on day 2-3 of the...

Hi Kristen, As far as I know, prime binds the ammonia for up to 48 hours (so its not toxic to your fish) but it does not remove it. In fact, it just removes chlorine and chloramines and other metals. Anyhow, during that time your tank should be able to deal with that amount of ammonia without...

Could be ich or hole in the head. If those white spots start eroding pretty confident is hole in the head which is very common in angelfish. If thats the case, treat with metroplex

I would say besides the water change add aquarium salt. In addition check his poop. the head erosion might be coming from hole in the head (parasite). If water changes dont do the trick, I would also try paraguard since its very mild and treat a lot of diseases

I have a 10 gallon on my daughter's room with just guppies. I started with 2 and now i have like 20, I know that might need to get rid of some in near future. Trust me when i say every time i pass by all of them make a party

That does not look like fungus or ick. More like an internal decease that is going out through skin. I had something similar on my angels and that white dot ended up in big holes from hole in the head. I would use metro to treat parasites just in case

CAnt see the picture clearly. But for your reference i attached the link from the forum where they explain everything about columnaris Columnaris Symptoms And Treatment | Freshwater Fish Disease and Fish Health Forum | 263058

Columnaris and ich are always on the water column, it just wait until a fish have a week immune system to attack
