The tank is cycled but they are newly purchased fish I have been testing the tank every couple of days to ensure the parameters were in check I believe They came with the gill flukes on them since from the second day they were introduced to the tank I noticed them flashing. Will do! Thanks...

Yes your right it has been 10 days with the temperature raised, the 3 cories are still flashing as of today. If you scroll to post #16 I have uploaded a video of one of the cories flashing the video is in the blue link titled “cories flashing”

I will look at Lfs to see if they have any other medications. But for now what do you think I should do with the fish, the aquarium is still heated to 86 Fahrenheit should I turn the temp down? I do have aquarium salt but I’m not sure if that will do any good for them. Thanks for your help! 🙂

Will that sucks thanks for all your help🙂

It was the only thing I found that was safe for scaleless fish invertebrates I have black Neo's in the tank as will I was looking at general cure but we do not have that in our area as will the other options I have are Mardel parashield maracyn pimafix melafix kordon malachite green...

we do not have prazipro were I live, I'm thinking about ordering Kordon Ich attack as a replacement. It says it uses more natural ingredients which makes it safe for scaleless fish and invertebrates and can also treat parasites Their gills are not very red but they are more lethargic and are...

what would you use to deworm them? Im thinking that it is gill flukes they have

Update: 1 of the Cories have passed away overnight Here are photos of the dead Cory Any ideas? Video of the Cories Flashing, the one that's not moving is the one who passed away overnight Cories Flashing

Oh no it’s all good 👍 it did not come across that way towards me. sorry if my comment Made it look like it did my apologies 😁

Just tested the aquarium for both They are both reading 0ppm

There is a thermometer in the tank and it is reading 86 degrees Fahrenheit.

Update: It has been 5 days now since I last did a water change and Also the tank has been set to 86 degrees Fahrenheit for 5 days as will. The corries fins have now fully healed and they have been still swimming and socializing with each other. The flashing has gotten worse, they are now...

Thanks, Byron does the heat essentially speed up the life cycle and also kill the ich at the same time within the 2 weeks? I'm just trying to understand exactly how this method works and what makes it effective against elliminating ich?

During the 2 weeks... How much and how often should I feed them? How often should I do water changes during this period and how much % of water should I take out? Also what should I do if after the 2 weeks they continue to flash on the substrate? or if they stop flashing after the 2 weeks...

3 days ago I purchased 4 new panda Corydoras from my Lfs to add to my aquarium I did not quarantine them since the heater in my quarantine tank stopped working and there was only 1 harlequin rasbora due to some recently dying I will be getting more soon inside of my 20 gallon aquarium and I also...

Thanks everyone and Colin_T for your help :)

Which deworming medication would you recommend in case I will ever need to use one? Thanks for your input!

I do have aquarium salt on hand! thanks! for your response

The only issue is that in case of an emergency if a fish does get sick in my aquarium and I have tried everything and I have to resort to medication because of me not having a car and being more busy with school and sports most of the time I would not be able to get the medications I need in...

I'm just wondering what are the best fish medications in your opinion's that everyone should have on hand no matter if your fish are sick or not. I am currently searching for a list of medications to add to my fish room that I will always have on hand no matter the situation. Also when...

The dogwood could potentially cause ammonia when it decomposes. But should not cause the ammonia to spike to an extreme level. I would just say keep adding the same amount of ml of ammonia every time you add some to the aquarium. test 24 hours later to see what the levels are after you added...

Is there anything in your aquarium currently like plants, substrate,decorations? My only guess is that there can be something else rotting in the aquarium that is also producing ammonia on top of the ammonia you are already adding to the aquarium.

It is worth a try. My only concern is the rocks potentially crushing the shrimp, Like if the shrimp are inside the bag and there is some sort of vibration that causes the rocks to move and potentially fall on the shrimp. I do not believe it well happen but it is a possibility. Other than that...

The best option is to make a separate tank for them. But If you're going to keep them in the tank with those fish your best bet is to get as much cover as possible in the aquarium for the shrimp so they have a fighting chance to survive if one of your fish starts to chase them. Some of them...

I do not believe those are shrimp eggs, Most shrimp like Ammano shrimp carry their eggs under their stomachs, you will be able to see their eggs attached to them. It is possible for them to drop a few eggs but the amount of eggs they drop is minimal it is not an extreme amount like seen on your...

To feed the spinach leaves. Boil hot water, add the spinach leaves to the boiling water for 5 mins so that it becomes soft enough for the shrimp to eat. Take it out let it cool for 5 mins, then add it to your tank, I believe they still float after being boiled so you will most likely have to...

The quarantine tank procedure I use is: When I add new fish to my quarantine tank I leave them in there for 1 full month, I do a water change every 3 days, and When I feed the fish I soak there food in garlic. I do this for the whole month If at any point during the time the fish are in...

there is a chance you can cause more stress then needed to your shrimp and possibly kill more of them by trying to chase parameters since it can stress them out even more. A KH of 40 ppm is fine for Neo's my aquarium full of cherry shrimp has not had any failed molts and my Gh is 8 degrees and...

It's ok Sorry for your loss!☹️

I would recommend Fluval Aquasky it is good for low to medium light plants. Not high light plants. It has a programmable 24 hour light cycle, it has customizable colour spectrums, it has multiple weather effects, it is controlled by your phone using bluetooth and you will have to download the...

I would just buy a dechlorinater bottle imo, not worth the hassle of waiting 24 hours and hoping all the chlorine is out, chlorine is not as toxic to invertebrates as it is to fish but it is still toxic. Most aquarium water conditioners that are safe for fish are safe for inverts also. it would...

Is her poop stringy she looks a little malnourished there can be an internal parasite/worms inside of her.
