Well the guppy with the white patch has died and the other has more red on her now. I think it is septicemia, I still have a few days before i can try something else.
I looked at Kanamycin, which seems the best option for hemorrhagic septicemia with internal bleeding. I can't treat with anti internal bacterial food and I'm not sure if the Interpet anti internal bacteria that I am using now is helping the fish at all (maybe it only treats the bacteria outside of the fish and doesn't get inside the fishes blood)? There are certainly no signs of improvement anyway.
The only Kanamycin based med I can find in the UK is Seachem Kanaplex and that seems to only be available online. The other thing I am afraid of is disrupting the other fish, my catfish are scaleless and I have already lost two adding salt, so the last thing I want to do is lose more.
Should I continue with the interpet treatment or get some of this Kanamycin stuff?
