it does see like hes sick or anything nor have fungus nor breathing hard...i was wondering if he is dying cause he is frightened..

what were you feeding him? if it was live feeders it could be some sort of bacterial infection that was transferred to him

im feeding them feeder rosies...the ones that ate are fine and healthy dont know about him...what should i do to him or treat him? guess i shouldnt buy feeders from petsmart huh seeing a thread on petsmart on here

hey man i was just looken at your thread the new one .Its sometimes hard if new fish will only eat live .I am going through this now and i have had my kells for amost 4 months .The kelberi will only eat live .The orino will take any but pellot. Twice now i have gave my bass ick. i get my live staight from the vender still in the bag treat for 10 days before feeding to my bass and still !!!!!!! they have gotten sick .So it is a battle but i know the fish bass will be better off on non live unless you breed your own.supplier feeders are riddled with disease !!And its tough because you dont no if its the food bringing sickness or if the fish you recieved were allready ill.Most likely aleady sick from the looks of your first thread.

i would try treating with coppersafe, another member told me to do it and i saved atleast one of my fish. good luck with your endeavor because i know how you feel.

i agreed, don't dose all at once. I did that and i can see it kicked my pass' butt. If you do use it, try doing like 1/4 or 1/3 of the recommended amount at a time till you get to the full amount.
