Help with dying fish?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I am glad they made it. Congrats for getting them through! True dedication, and kudos for posting it here and crowdsourcing treatment options.
Now, with all of that behind us, allow me to say the obvious: it is never good to "rescue" fish from a fish store. Unless they are free and/or it's your dream species and there's no other way to get it. It's always hit or miss, but you lucked out and this is worth celebrating!

Yes, I do try to make sure to buy healthy fish, but most of the time I don’t even need to worry because predatory fins is only 1 hr from my house and I have never even seen a sick fish in that shop, but these guys are definitely a dream fish for me, and they were only $15 so I couldn’t help myself.

Funny, my only order from predatory fins came in with sick fish, I even lost one.

Strange, I have never received a sick fish, I did lose a peacock bass once and the customer service was great, I reached out and they were super helpful and said I can go whenever to pick one up ( I haven’t made my way sown there in a few months)
 
I'm really glad they bounced back. It may be prudent to run a round of Levamisole (Expel P), or Flubendazole, as those meds cover different parasites than the General Cure that you already administered.
