Interesting. What I did was a FW dip with formalin for 5 minutes. The fish did look a little better afterwards. I didn't really have time to look in the bottom of the bucket to see if flukes or whatever came off. None of the fish were acting strange before treatment and were eating fine also.
They were either gone or greatly reduced. I was in a hurry to get back to work so I didn't look at them really close.
Yeah, I see your point. So what would be the recommended corse of action then? Another FW dip later on and see if anything falls off?
It could definitely be broken down and sanitized if needed. It is a rack that holds 2 40 breeders on top and 6 10 gal. tanks in the middle with a sump on the bottom. I can shut off whatever tanks I don't need and lift the 10 gal. tanks completely out for cleaning. Right now I only have 4 pairs so I could get it down to 4 10 gal. tanks with the sump if needed. Two of the pairs are lightning maroons and they were in the 40s due the aggressive nature of them. I think theyou are to the point where the female could tolerate the male in a 10 gal. for a while without killing him.How large is your breeding system? Is it something that can be broken down, sanitized and then set back up? Or are you needing an in-tank solution to the problem?
I actually have some metronidazole and PraziPro.
Mixing those could be a problem due to the Oxybispropanol found in Prazipro. Watch out for a bacterial bloom (cloudy water). Dosing powder prazi w/metro won't cause this issue, but admittedly can be difficult to dissolve without the solubilizing agent.
Btw, where can you get straight metro and prazi? I did a quick search and all I could find was prazi tablets.
