Quick Question - Gills

[MissClaire]

AHOY!!!!
Sick of me yet? (the answer is probably yes)
But thanks for your time reading my question!
My Blue Diamond discus....I was watching her tonight, her right gill opens and closes very frequent and quick, in time with her mouth....and her left doesnt move barely at all. This is an ongoing thing. Is this a deformation and just her? or something more urgent I should look into such as dieses or parasite or something

Sounds like a parasite in the gills......start checking out other info about discus and thier problems.... it does need to be treated if it is a parasite or the rest of the fish will get it as well

 

[MissClaire]

Oh are you serious

I must have the worst luck known to fish keepers!

would the parasite be in the gill that is moving rapidly? or the one that barely moves....

Miss Claire are you sure you have the worst luck I thought that was me?

I really hope your Dicus is ok...I know you've been going through a lot lately...same here but it looks like I've cured the ich my fish were having. Fingers crossed
