hello
i have problem with my Oscars they are sick. One of them have a holes on his head end his one eye got bigger and cloudy hi stop eating as well,
i threat him with penicillin end costapur that i boot in a pet store.
but no improvement yet ,it is his third day of treatment end hi just lie on the send end hi don't swim at all
i put him in the another aquarium but i notice a similar problem with my anther fishes
sorry for my poor English end please hellp
 
hole in the head disease and cloudy eye are both product of dirty water. Do a massive water change, 50%+. What tank size is it? Oscars are messy fish. You need strong filtration and a big tank for them, as well as remove uneaten food. Hope he gets better
 
i keeping Oscar about 8 years end never have problems with their health is there any help for my Oscar because hi is very sick some medicine or something my tank is 250 liters
 
Good luck with the oscars! Hope they get better!;)
 
Metrozinodale - get them to eat it if possible, otherwise put it in the water. Look for it in the ingredients of medicine at the pet store.

massive water change as Onion said. Raise temperature to 85-87 degrees and add a bubbler. You will need to do massive water changes twice per day and add more metro. Make sure you siphon out the white floaty poo - they can eat this and become infected again. It's a pain - hole in the head is very hard to cure. Can take 2 weeks or more of this. Good luck!
 
i will tray if i can find metrozinodale because in Macedonia i cant find a lot of different medicine for fishes.is it normal for that sickness to stop eating
