hi
& help,
we have a green tiger barb - one of our original 6 pack now 15months old who just lately have noticed has been hanging by himself in one of our caves & just today im pretty sure that his eyes are more poppy out than normal (if you know what i mean) he also seems to be making continual mouth movements - like chewing constantly, i know fish do this but compared to the other barbs what hes doing does not seem normal.........what can i do.......we dont want to lose him. any suggestions for treatment & if you give me ideas of meds that are antibiotic based can you give me exactly what antibiotic it consists of???( we cant buy antibiotics over the counter here in the uk for fish treatments but i do have access to antibiotics in my job)
any suggestions most helpful thanks im desperate!!!!! :crazy:
oops meant to say all tank params ok ( ammonia 0, nitrite 0, nitrate 20-30,pH7.8 - last 2 always around this, good old london uk nasty tap water)
