Afraid of parisitic infection spreading, I used Kordon Rapid Cure in my 37gallon since my fish are still in s quarantine stage. Had my SND female crowntail in a breeders box to keep her from the others. I put drops right into the breeders box think it will eventually distribute out to the rest of the tank but the Rapid Cure remained in the box concentrated on the crowntail. Left her in overnight and checking up on her this morning, she was motionless. It’s been almost 24 hours and she is still with us barely. She’s at the bottom of the tank still breathing but not moving. Please help! Emergency!

 

I would start with putting carbon in the filter and 2 or 3 larger water changes of 50% or more to get the meds out as a start.

 

Thanks for the instructions. As for the filter media, should I put in an brand new one or the previous one removed for the med treatment. And as far as the water changes, along with the conditioner, do I need to add additional beneficial bacteria such as Seachem Stability?

 

I would use the old since that is where most the bacteria is. As far as the bacteria stuff, maybe on the last one.

The important thing is to get the meds out since you think you overdosed.

 

Ok. Will do
She’s not moving but on the bottom of the tank breathing.
