Hi all,
About a day ago one of my Anthias in the qt suddenly started breathing heavily and refused to eat. I assumed it was gill flukes and dosed prazipro they have all been in this qt since October, been trying to get rid of an internal parasite but haven’t had luck at all. I’ve tried Metro and focus with food, general cure and focus with food, general cure bath, now prazipro. Anyways this morning I saw that it was on its way out and attempted on a last ditch effort to give it a freshwater dip. Put it back in the Tank and a few minutes later it passed.
Upon closer inspection it looks like it’s abdomen area is slightly swollen and it’s anus is open, any thoughts on what I could be dealing with? All of the other fish in qt are eating and active.
