Help!! I've got parasites... I think

once a week... i don't have a camera that would give a good enough picture to diagnose anything... they are very, very small. barely visible to the naked eye.

Changing the water and vacuuming through the gravel are totally different.

I used to just siphon water out but if you don't thoroughly clean the gravel, you are just wasting water.

I'm not accusing you of not cleaning good enough, simply stating a possibility.

ur oscars problem is most likely injury. add salt and heat for that to heal. as for the worms i would say its what they said above.
