No, I have not. I can't catch this guy without tearing down either :/ he's under the lowest rock
Would the General Cure do anything to combat them if it is flukes?
The other two, a flame Hawkfish and sleeper goby, seem ok. The Hawkfish is very small though I've had him 2 years. The goby could be skinny? Not sure though. He eats but doesn't seem to gain weight. The Hawkfish may not have eaten today, but I was paying attention to the Anthias so could have missed it.
Well I'm on day 7 of general cure + focus in my reef tank. Knock on wood nothing seems to mind it.
You are binding it to food using Focus, correct? That is reef safe. These people I know are dosing it directly into their reef tank (against my better judgement.)
If this guy doesn't make it, is there a way to fish autopsy for flukes?
You'd be surprised how long fish can go without eating. But you are right, all you can do is wait & see what happens now. He'll either start coming out into the open or .....
Almost a month? Gosh... I had a neighbor come feed when I was going to be gone for the weekend!
The Hawkfish and goby have both been fed the same General Cure in food... Should they be ok despite the outcome of this Anthias? Or if it somehow survived in the Anthias (since Anthias may not be eating medicated food) would it move to them once the Anthias perished?
I once had a CBB survive 6 weeks in QT without eating anything.
It's really hard to say. If the Anthias hasn't been eating the medicated food, then the other fish could keep getting reinfected with intestinal worms by eating his white stringy poop. Fish have this thing about eating each other's poo.
Is it possible to overdose Metronidazole/Prazi?
Should I continue General Cure, or take a break and start again, or just wait and see?
