Convict problem

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
if u can get your wood in a pan and boil it for a couple of hours that should remove quite alot of the tannins and will also sterilise it if you are worried about your wood having something harmfull in it, apart from that you just need alot of patience untill the colour dies down. im afraid i have no advice on the convict good luck tho
 
Now he's laying on his side. Still fully alive, but he can't seem to stay vertical without swimming. I had a goldfish that did this once but died after about a week. I tried the peas. He won't eat them.
 
Once he's laying on his side he's not eating anymore. What have you done for him so far other than that herbal med? have you done the epsom salt bath?
 
I've tried the herbal med and the peas. I haven't tried the epsom salt bath, no. Is that my next step?
 
I would try it, he's getting worse and you'll lose him. try the epsom salt bath for 10 mins but watch for any sings of distress. Remove him immediatly if he looks worse. If it works it should help him alot.
