Thanks! How long would you wait before starting round 2?If there is still no improvement add kanamycin to the next round with the furan 2.
You have been very helpful, I can't thank you enoughKanamycin is very well absorbed where nitrofurazone/bifuran is topical. If this is systemic the kanamycin is an excellent compliment to the furan 2 for a one two punch.
You could start now after a good water change. Keep us updated.
Update:You're welcome.
I wouldn't add the metro
Thanks. Just administered the last dose yesterday.Kanamycin is is causing the clear bowel movements. Cichlids often refuse food while on antibiotics. Stay the course.
So it's been a week since the treatment of Furan-2 and Kanamycin. I have been doing ~25% water change every other day. Flowerhorn is still not eating. His head seems to have cleared up from clear blisters, still a few small ones but no crazy big ones like before. He is still pooping stringy white/clear - shedding his intestinal lining - would this still be from the antibiotics a week ago or is this an indication of something else? What would you recommend - wait another week or so? Or begin treatment with something else?Kanamycin is is causing the clear bowel movements. Cichlids often refuse food while on antibiotics. Stay the course.
