2 of my angels arent eating as much as they usaly do.
The poo is also white. One angels fishs stomach is "pinched" andvery drawn in, but he still eats a few blod worms here and there.
i think it may be internal parasites but im not sure.
I took a sample of my water to my lfs and they said it was all normal (and i trust my LFS) but i dont know the exact readings.
can any one help me please?

Thanks
Kellie
 
It is possible it is parasites. I can't be sure I haven't had that problem yet. I have always had good luck with the fish antibiotics that come in capsules. I would try getting one that treats parasites and see if that helps. I know they are a little more expensive but they have done miraculous things on some of my fish. Try to catch whatever it is soon. If it is already emaciated you need help quick fast and in a hurry. Hope someone else has some more info. for you.
 
I am not sure what all antibiotics you have in Australia. We need to find a broad spectrum antibiotic that can be combined with an internal parasite medication. That oughta do it.

Hope you find some soon. I don't want to see it croak. My angels are fighting a round of fungus right now. So lets get these fishies well.
 
Most vets dont know much about fish.

australia doesnt really have much in the way of medication.
There was one that worked really well, octozen but they arent allowed to bring it in to australia anymore.

:(
 
It does sound like internal parasites.

Just in case, feed some dried peas (skinned). This helps in the digestive system. Anti Parasite meds will work, if you can get any.

Good luck
