And what about the yawning and faster breathing? Normal when it happens sometimes?

Could be flukes, could be detritus in the water, could be a water quality issue (that's why I asked what you are using to monitor the ammonia).

Overall, for single parameter tests, I think the Salifert series is pretty good. Seachem are also good.

Dear Jay, sadly i have to say that my bamboo probably got gill flukes. He is yawning often now and at night swimming to the surface and shaking it's head since today. Thats the first time he did that. The last times it was the yawning and belly rubbing.
The days when he was fine and the days when he is often yawing and flashing come close to the cycle of flukes.
No ammonium, no nitrite detected.

I did some Research and i could use prazipro. Prazipro is not avaible in germany, but same recepture other Name, found it weile Research in other groups.

Kusuri fluke p


i would buy the kusuri, but i want to know from you what are the chancen that it is no flukes. And when should i start the treatment? When symptoms appear, or when he is fine again?
i know i need a second treatment for Sure.
I Attached a video, hopefully it has worked.
