what meds can you get?

Use metro if u can..

water change 25-30% every 24hr with dose of medication.

drop temp to 78-80 degree because I learned the disease is strong at higher temp.

And he's got a lot of thick white puss inside his infected area. you can press those out from front to back and out of the teeth holes if you are brave and graceful enough..


it is a deadly disease and your fish is very likely to die very soon if do do anything right this second. The puss inside will spread and expend really fast and kill your fish really fast!!


I healed a few from the method I wrote above.. But I press out the puss though. it helped saved the fish. and it is like toothpaste and super gross.

Your fish got high hopes if you do something now.
