Jars And Parasites !!!

[Cammo X]

Hey guys,

I think my jar has parasites on him, there like little white things on him and i know it isnt white spot. I want to treat it but i have heard that Togaz /Arows sometimes can be harmfully infected by some types of medicine, this is the stuff im gonna use if you guys think its the right stuff.

Science products
Parasite Elimnator-Controls gill flukes,anchor worm,skin flukes,leeches and lice.
Active constituent: Triclorfon 20mg/tab.
Use at rate of 1 tab per 40l, for tetras and scaless fish use 1 tab per 60l.
it says that it may adversely affect species of plecs, BN's, Arowana and Saratoga !!!.

Would this stuff still be ok to use?????

Thnx in Advance!

Is it Ich? Any big temperature drops of late?
I would raise temp and add salt, UV steriliser if u have it.
Arowanas are hardy. Then try medication.

Sounds like ich. They twitch and sometimes scrape the floor with their bodies to try and get the ich off. How long have you had the aro? Was there any big temp. changes or changes that might have stressed it? Fish that are stressed get ich. Raise the temp. and get some medication that treats ich. If caught early, the results are usually pretty good. The Doctor.

definitely ich.

try protozin. (sp)
the white bottle with the clown loach on it.
It is safe for loaches which means for fish that are scaleless/More vunerable it will be safe!

Raise the temperature and add salt.

I already raised the temp and added salt yesterday, so i will se how that goes. the otehr fish i have in there are sooty grunter, plecs, snakehead gudgeon and spangled gudgeon.
